Description

Appeal of LaTanya Jones, PB Investment Properties, LLC, for encroachment fees. (842 N. 25th St.) (4th Aldermanic District)

Summary

The document concerns PB Investment Properties LLC’s appeal of a $308.65 City of Milwaukee Department of Public Works charge for alleged vegetation encroachment at 842 N. 25th St. A June 9, 2026 notice required shrubs and vegetation to be trimmed from the sidewalk and right-of-way within 15 days, or the City could perform the work and bill the owner under Milwaukee ordinances. The owner filed a $25 appeal fee, arguing that DPW’s administrative process and documentation were inadequate and that a private contractor performed overlapping yard work. The appeal asks the Administrative Review Board to review notices, photos, work orders, invoices, and cost calculations. The Board can assess procedure, not the underlying validity of the building or violation order. Unpaid charges may incur fees and become property liens.
