A"Thirty Day" certified letter was mailed and posted on the property on August 7, 1996, requesting abatement of the substandard conditions. On August 20, 1996, contact was made with Mr. Sema, the property owner, and access was gained to the rear of the property. Additional violations were noted and a revised list of defects was sent to the owner. On September 5, 1996, the tenant at 3449 Bartlett Avenue phoned and advised Building Department staff that he had rented a bin and would be cleaning the property. A follow-up inspection was attempted on September 10, 1996, however the yard gates were locked. On October 2, 1996, another "bulky item" trash notice was sent. Inspections were attempted again on October 11, and November 12, 1996, but the gates remained locked.
