BUILDING REHABILITATION APPEALS BOARD
FROM: FRANK G. TRIPEPI, CITY MANAGER
DATE: JUNE 19, 2001
RE: 3352 KELBURN AVENUE - HEARING
The subject property consists of an owner-occupied single family dwelling located in the R-2 zone.
A "Please Letter" was mailed to the property owner on February 27, 2001. Inspection on March
27, 2001 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 April 3, 2001, requesting abatement
of the substandard conditions. A "bulky item" trash notice was mailed on April 19, 2001. Monthly
follow-up inspections have shown no improvement at the property. Inspection on May 24, 2001
revealed that the property had further deteriorated in that additional trash and junk had accumulated
in the front yard area.
A Notice of Hearing was mailed and posted on the property on June 12, 2001. 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 August 1, 2001. However, if the required permits are
obtained, and sufficient progress is achieved by August 1, 2001, the abatement date maybe extended
to September 4, 2001.
