CASE HISTORY 8-12-99 City Code Enforcement received complaint of possible garage conversion at 3044 Sullivan Ave. 8-14-99 Mailed letter to property owner requesting an inspection of the property. 8-25-99 Property owner Woon Lee called and set up a property inspection for Wednesday, September 1. 9-1-99 I went to the subject property of 3044 Sullivan Ave. and met with the property owner Woon Lee. Upon my arrival Mr. Lee identified himself as an inspector for the City of Los Angeles, Department of Public Works. Property owner Lee stated that he has owned the property for about ten years and has not done any work to the property. I advised him that the City had received a complaint of an illegal conversion on the property. He again stated that he only had the two approved units on the property and that the property was in the same condition as he had purchased it. I admonished Mr. Lee that he could rent the two units only as single-family dwellings and they may not be converted to duplexes without the proper permits and approvals. Mr. Lee agreed and gave me his business card, I then left the location. 9-5-99 Received a complaint of illegal patio enclosure and division of single family dwelling into a duplex. I went to the location and inspected the property with one of the tenants of the rear house. I was able to observe that the patio had been fully 9-6-99 enclosed, partition walls added, and a full kitchen installed. The tenant told me that the property owner Mr. Lee had been advertising in the local papers the 'enclosed patio as a one bedroom duplex. The tenant stated that a lady had recently rented the unit and was in the process of moving in. I took pictures and then left the location. A check of building permits shows that there are no permits for the patio enclosure, partition walls or second kitchen. It is requested that a property rehabilitation case be started for 3044 Sullivan Ave. June 27. 2000 LIST OF DEFECTS SUBSTANDARD PROPERTY 304446 SULLIVAN AVENUE REVISED 3044 (Rear) Building Code Violations 1.
