HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS
BUILDING REHABILITATION APPEALS BOARD
FRANK G. TRIPEPI, CITY MANAGER
MARCH 21, 2000
9333 RALPH STREET - REHEARING
The subject property consists of a single family dwelling, located in the R-1 zone, which appears
to have been converted to a duplex. Both units are tenant occupied. There is also another building
at the rear of the property which appears to be occupied. This structure was permitted as a "summer
house", but not as a separate unit.
This property was previously before the Board on February 22, 2000. At that time, the Board
ordered the matter be returned for Rehearing in March to allow the property owners sufficient time
to complete the eviction process of the tenants. The Board also stipulated that the units in question
were not to be rented again until the outstanding issues were resolved.
A review of City records reveals that this property was never owned, or sold, by the City of
Rosemead.
A Notice of Hearing was mailed and posted on the property on March 13, 2000. At that time, the
building inspector observed no change of property conditions, but it appeared evident that the
tenants had vacated. All interested parties have been notified.
CITY BUILDING OFFICIAL'S RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board find the property substandard and order all substandard
conditions be removed and/or corrected by May 1, 2000. However, if permits and approvals are
obtained, and sufficient progress is achieved by May 1, 2000, the abatement date may be extended
to June I. 2000.
