Landlord unhappy with city’s approach to illegal waste
A landlord in the City of Meadow Lake is fed up with individuals using his property as a dumping ground.
Roger Epp, landlord of 212 and 214 Second Street East, said he’s unhappy with the city’s lack of enforcement with illegal dumping bylaws which he says costs him thousands in waste removal fees.
Epp told meadowlakeNOW he submitted photos to the city of alleged culprits and said there was no follow-up.
“It is the responsibility of tenants to get rid of their furniture themselves but it’s not only tenants; there are people from the in city who bring their furniture and leave it at the dumpsters,” Epp said. “We actually get written up and the city will fine us if we don’t clean up.”
