Sarah Smith summarized the Council's action at the April 26, 2011 meeting. She indicated that
the property owner was provided a copy of the agenda materials that were both hand delivered
and mailed on May 5, 2011. The packet information also included a breakdown of the costs
incurred related to the action of the Council related to the CUP violations and revocation. Smith
stated that Max Teplistski paid part of the fees on May 9, 2011 but requested more information
on the legal fees charged. That information was provided today. Community Service Officer
Mike Wocken reported that the required cleanup was accomplished last week. Chief Kurtz
stopped by on Saturday to investigate the open garage door. The owners indicated they were
doing paperwork and a vehicle battery was being charged. Observations by the CSO on May
10, 2011 were very similar to the inspection conducted on May 5, 2011.
Osmek had a concern about the unscreened dumpster and Smith said this issue would be
reviewed by Staff.
Hanson asked the Council if they were concerned about the number of vehicles on the lot that
were not for sale. Hanus stated that we cannot get more restrictive unless the owner agrees.
We are not here to rework the CUP at this time.
Max Teplitski, owner's representative, indicated that they will address the dumpster code. He
requests additional time to review and pay the fees. Hanus said that the only garage work
would be to condition the vehicles for sale; not for general public car repair.
Alexandra Teplitski briefly explained the Saturday site visit by the Police Chief to the Council
who did not have issues related to this matter. He stated he has been in business 50 years and
assured the Council he wants things right.
Max Teplitski requested 30 days to pay the remaining fees. It was suggested that, if not paid
within 30 days, the City could use the 2009 CUP fees that were submitted to the City and
Teplitski agreed with this.
Smith commented that there would be additional costs, not included in the breakdown, related
to preparation for the May 10, 2011 Council meeting.
