TO: HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS
BUILDING REHABILITATION APPEALS BOA D
FROM: liRANK G. TRIPEPI, CITY MANAGER
DATE: JULY 20, 1999
RE: 2726 KELBURN - HEARING
The subject property consists of a tenant-occupied single family dwelling and a tenant-occupied
illegally converted guest house. The property is zoned R-2. A "Please Letter" was mailed to the
property owner on February 17, 1999. On March 2, 1999, Mr. Kim Tom, the owner's brother, came
to the Building Department to discuss the list of defects and permit requirements. Inspection on
March 10, 1999 revealed no progress. The Building Official declared the property substandard and
filed a Declaration of Substandard Property with the Los Angeles County Recorder's office. A
"Fifteen Day" certified letter was mailed and posted on the property on March 24, 1999, requesting
abatement of the substandard conditions. On March 30, 1999, Mr. Tom returned to City Hall with
a site plan which had been requested by Planning Department. The plan was incomplete and Mr. Tom
indicated that he would return the following day, hut he did not.
A"bulky item" trash notice was mailed to both the owners and tenants on April 5, 1999. On April
21, 1999, the building inspector met with Mr. Torn at the site, however no interior access was
gained to the guest house. On April 26, 1999, Mr. Torn returned to City Hall with a more detailed
site plan. On May 5, 1999, Ms. Wilkinson from Planning Department staff did gain access to the
guest house. She verified that a full kitchen had been added without permits or approvals. Other
Planning Department violations were also noted. Ms. Wilkinson made several attempts to contact
Mr. Tom by telephone, pager, and by mail. As of July 12, 1999, no response had been received.
A Notice of Hearing was mailed and posted on the property July 12, 1999. All interested parties
have been notified. -
CM' 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 September 1, 1999. However, if the required permits are obtained,
and sufficient progress is achieved by September I, 1999, the abatement date may be extended to
October 4, 1999.
