Re: Parcel No. 80550001600, 301 Longmire St NW Yelm
Scott,
The City of Yelm has received complaints from the neighborhood about the collection of house hold
waste that has been accumulating on the property you have as a rental at 301 Longmire St. NW. The
presence of this garbage has become an unsightly nuisance and may become a rodent and odor
nuisance ( see attached photos).
Within the city limits of Yelm, Washington, refuse collection is required by Ordinance:
The maintenance of the public health and sanitation requires, and it is the intention hereof to
make, the collection, disposal and removal of waste materials within the city universal and
compulsory under the supervision of the city, and to provide that such collection, removal and
disposal of waste materials be performed by the city or such entity as the city may from time to
time authorize and designate. (Ord. 173 § 3, 1974).
The City of Yelm currently contracts with Pacific Disposal for refuse collection. Please remove the
garbage your tenants are currently storing in the back yard and subscribe to a weekly refuse collection
service with Pacific Disposal.
Your cooperation will be appreciated by the City of Yelm and your neighborhood. If I can be of
assistance you have any questions please contact me at (360) 458 -8407. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Gary Carlson
Building Official
City of Yelm
