Dear Resident:
A recent observation of your property located at 759 Mil1 Street, Springfield, 0regon

the property at the above referenced location.
Household garbage must be stored in covered containers and removed
weekly. Used naterials must either be rernoved or screened from view
by a structure or enclosure of a permanent nature affixed to the ground.
Therefore, by ten (10) days from the date of this letter (November 2, 1982), the above
described conditions must be corrected in order to conform to City Codes. Unless you
comply with this requirement, further action will be taken under the Codes of the City
of Springfield, Oregon.
Please direct all inquiries to the Springfield Building Division at 726-3753.
Sincerely,
