Planning <br />and Development Director Tim Tietjens responded the decrease of mowing was due to being <br />without one of the two Code Enforcement Officers, in addition to other staff shortages in the <br />Planning and Development Department. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zemanek questioned if the employees in the Inspections Department are cross- <br />trained to continue providing services to the City.
