Published: December 11 and 18, 2013 City Council the city calls it, nuisance abatement, were done on a property, costs for that cleanup not paid back to the city could also become a lien on a person’s property. In bringing an ordinance wi t h e x p a n d e d lien authority to the council, Cutsforth said since the city was dealing with the lien ordinance, she felt it was a good time to “broaden the ordinance” to include other potential charges and fees as well. Although the city does not cu rren tly have any econom ic developm ent district, the new ordinance would cover assessments made in any future districts. According to Oregon law, econom ic im provem ent districts can be formed for: (a) T he p l a n n i n g or m a n a g e m e n t of development or improvement activities. (b) Landscaping or other m ain ten an ce o f public areas. (c ) P r o m o t i o n of -Continuedfrom PAGE ONE com m ercial activity or public events.

The council did not take any action on the new ordinance, and any new city ordinances must be made available to the public to read, and a public hearing held.

She said she also had met with Ferguson Engineering and discussed the possibility of improvements to the city tennis courts and maybe development o f a soccer field at Hager Park. The money would come from outside sources and not the city budget. Cutsforth also praised the city crew during the recent cold spell, saying they were working very had to take care o f problems caused around town by the cold weather. The council also moved to approve purchase of a new pickup for public works at a cost of $ 16,051. She also reported that she received “a lot of positive comments” from neighbors o f a property that was cleaned up. The owner had agreed to repay the city for the cost of the cleanup. In other business the council agreed to a request from the Heppner Cemetery Maintenance District that it be allowed to pay a flat fee o f $600 monthly for water during the months of May through Sept. The district had been receiving much higher bills that it could not afford, and after doing an assessment of its irrigation system, had found ways to reduce water usage. “ We appreciate the city doing that; we want a green cemetery,” district official Tom Wolff told the council. “We could not afford $ 1500 per month.” Wolff said the district had also done a nozzle test and also found leaks in the system in order to cut back on wasted water.
