Ted Budden <br />To: Kevin Fagerstrom <br />Cc: Tony Lee <br />Subject: 1824 Walnut St. <br />Kevi n, <br />We received two separate complaints about this property in the last few days concerning the conversion and occupancy <br />of the rear building at this address. <br />I checked our records and find that we have some history with this same building and scenario. <br />In 2008 we met with the previous owner on site for a survey of the building for purposes of attempting to bring the <br />property into compliance. <br />During this visit we observed and documented numerous building, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical code violations <br />and deficiencies. <br />The property has since sat vacant for a few years. <br />Late last year the property was purchased by a new owner and the building in question is now occupied by a tenant. <br />This building is being occupied contrary to law (in addition to the known defects and code violations that were <br />documented in 2008.) <br />We show a record trail that indicates the new owner inquired about the violations by phone in late 2011 and in person <br />at our permit counter in early 2012. <br />We apparently are going to need your assistance with enforcement action on this one. <br />I posted the structure with an Unlawful Structure determination and Placard and contacted the tenant that resides there <br />explaining briefly our history and current action. <br />Please process this for enforcement as time allows. <br />Records and photos in CRW as always. <br />Thank you. <br />Ted Budden <br />
