The County will provide you a response after that analysis has been completed.

The property has gone from an 83 acre pristine nine hole golf course, to an 83 acre fire hazard and noxious weed breeding ground. It has become a community eyesore, and has significantly reduced the value of my home as well the other homes fronting the abandoned property. I have recently had an attorney, along with an extremely well qualified wildland fire expert, tour the entire 83 acre course. Not surprisingly, their assessment differs markedly with those of Chief Martin's. I have two more experts schedule to inspect the course later this month. I expect Jefferson County to enforce the MPR-RA zoning code by requiring the property owner to immediately mow the entire Trail Nine course and remove the cut grass and noxious weeds from the course. Also, a mowing schedule that requires the course to be mowed a minimum of four time a year, along with a noxious weed mitigation plan, must be published. I have repeatedly raise this issue with Jefferson County over the past six years. My requests have been completely ignored. Perhaps you and the property owner might want to consider the benefits of risk medication.
