October 9,2007 shows that as of that date the slab had not been poured for the wall. See Exhibit 3. 4. On October 10, 2007, City inspector,Randy Allen, issued a stop work notice based on his assessment of the partially constructed wall and Mr. Popov's failure to adhere to the design as submitted by Mitchell Engineering. See Exhibit 4. The stop work notice was in writing and was posted on Mr. Popov's property. The notice ordered the owner to stop the pouring of any concrete foundations or slabs. 5. That same day,the Permit Services Manager discovered that the owner had disregarded the October 10,2007 stop work notice by causing the slab to be poured. See Exhibit 5 (photos of the wall and poured slab). The slab covers the deficiencies in the construction of the footing,making it more difficult to identify and correct the problems in the construction. 6. On October 10, 2007, the Permit Services Manager wrote a letter to Mr. Popov regarding the basement retaining wall,noting that no final inspections would be conducted until Mr.Popov submitted two sets of drawings from an engineer of record that accurately represents the wall as built and provides a letter that the wall as built complies with construction codes. The letter concluded that Mr. Popov must demolish and reconstruct the wall under the established permit process or correct the deficiencies related to the wall. See Exhibit 6. 7. On November 16, 2007, the Permit Services manager issued a second stop work notice, noting that the retaining wall had been constructed incorrectly and without inspections. The stop work notice ordered that there be no use of the [attached] carport. See Exhibit 7. 8.
