APPEAL HEARING - BOARD OF BUILDING COMMISSIONERS'
ORDER TO VACATE, SECURE AND DEMOLISH - 765 N. "0"
STREET - ALBERT MAMLOUK, APPELLANT - EARL KORCHAK,
OWNER
This is the time and place set for an appeal hearing
regarding the Board of Building Commissioner's order to
vacate, secure and demolish the building at 765 N. "0"
Street, requested by Albert Mamlouk, a tenant of the
building owned by Earl Korchak. (15)
In a memorandum dated July 27, 1988, Mark Sutton,
Director of Building and Safety, provided a history of
the unreinforced masonry building located at 765 North
"0" Street. After a structural analysis was made of the
building, finding that it could not withstand or resist
minimum seismic forces, the owner notified his tenants of
the City's intent to demolish the building if it was not
rehabitable.
All tenants vacated the premises with the exception
of Mr. Albert Mamlouk, who operates a small grocery store
in the bui ld ing .
.
In a letter dated November 13, 1987, to Mr. Earl
Korchak, property owner, Frank Tracadas, Civil Engineer,
provided an evaluation of the structural features of the
building. He stated it is possible to strengthen por-
tions of the building that do not meet minimum code re-
quirements, but it was his opinion that it may not be
economically feasible.
In a letter dated July 29, 1988, Earl Korchak re-
quested an additional 45 days to allow time for a con-
clusive determination regarding the economic feasibility
of retrofitting the building.
In a letter dated August 3, 1988, Z. John Szekely, a
registered Professional Engineer, evaluated that the
structural features of the building adequately resist
minimum forces which may be imposed by normal use or
seismic occurrence. He stated that he has been retained
to provide design calculations and drawings for the re-
habilitation of the building, which will be completed
within 20 days.
.
In a letter dated August 5, 1988, W. R. Holcomb,
attorney representing Mr. Mamlouk, requested that a com-
pan ion matter regard ing the transfer of Mr. Mamlouk' s
off-sale beer and wine license to a neighboring building,
be considered at the same time as the appeal of the Board
of Building Commissioners' action.

8/15/88
.
Mayor wilcox opened the hearing.
Mark Sutton, Director of Building & Safety; provided
photographs of the building located at 765 North "D"
Street, and answered questions regarding the background
of the appeal.
W. R. Holcomb, attorney for Mr. Mamlouk, stated that
he has the assurance of a local engineer that the safety
of the building is not an issue.
The Director of Building & Safety spoke regarding
the City's responsibility in protecting life and limb,
and provisions of the Uniform Building Code.
Attorney Holcomb stated tha t Mr. Mamlouk has not
received any notices from the City regarding the build-
ing, although he has a vested interest as he is a leasee.
He stated that the building was given a Certificate of
Occupancy by the Building & Safety Department in 1986.
He requested a reasonable opportunity to retrofit the
building or move next door, and spoke regarding the tran-
sfer of the off-sale beer and wine license of the market.
.
John Wilson, Deputy City Attorney, answered ques-
tions, stating that discussion of the transfer of a beer
and wine 1 icense is not appropr ia te under thi s appeal
hearing regarding the demolition of a building.
Earl Korchak, building owner, stated that he had
made a determination that it was not economically fea-
sibile to retrofit the building and he notified tenants
to move. He was notified that Mr. Mamlouk finds it very
difficult to move his business. Through the efforts of a
property manager, he spoke with another structural engi-
neer who indicates that, subject to payment of a fee, he
will draw up plans for retrofitting the building as it is
the engineer's opinion that it may be economically fea-
sible to retrofit. Mr. Korchak requested additional time
for this to take place.
The Director of Building & Safety answered questions
regarding the unsafe condition of the property.
Attorney Holcomb stated tha t Mr. Mamlouk plans to
retrofit the building if the owner does not.
.

8/15/88
.
Deputy Ci ty Attorney wi lson expressed concern re-
garding the City's liability during the time extension.
He stated that the entire liability should be transferred
to the other parties, holding the City harmless. The
City should be named as an insured and the building
should not be occupied until the documents are in hand.
Mark Sutton, Director of Building & Safety, stated
that the August 3, 1988, letter from Professional Engi-
neer Szekely is an opinion, and not supported by any
data. He spoke regarding the provision of a disclaimer
on the property.
Council Member Estrada made a motion, seconded by
Council Member Miller, that the appeal hearing be closed;
that Mr. Mamlouk be granted a 30-day extension on two
conditions: 1. Within 72 hours, Mr. Mamlouk be required
to provide a Certificate of Insurance, naming the City as
an additional insured during the 30-day extension period;
2. During the 72-hour period, only Mr. Mamlouk may enter
the building, and only if he executes a hold harmless
agreement at the City Attorney's Office; no third party
or other tenants are allowed to enter the building during
the 72 hours.
