Zaragoza 1472 W. 8th Street San Bernardino CA 92410 January 9, 1987 The Honorable Mayor and Common Council 300 North "D" Street San Bernardino CA 92418 Honorable Mayor and Council: On September 8, 1986, the Mayor and Common Council vacated an order of abatement on my property 1358 W. Fifth Street because I completed all necessary repairs. However, the administrative charges incurred by the Department of Building and Safety were placed as a lien against my property in the amount of $183.03 and this amount appeared on my tax bill. I am requesting that the lien be released as the evidence used to substantiate the order of abatement was not accurate. Please notify me when I receive a hearing before the Mayor and Council.

He was directed to contact this office to discuss a solution to the problem. Feb. 19 -A Notice of Pendency of Administrative Proceedings was filed as a result of Mr. Zaragoza not respotiding'to-the notice of correction on the 7th. This notice makes public the fact that the city has concerns and may have incurred costs related to those concerns. Feb. 21 - Certified letter sent advising of Board of Building Commissioners meeting March 7. Three letters sent, one accepted. March 7 - Board of Building Commissioners authorized the abatement of the nuisance. Section 3 provides that lithe expenses thereof made a lien on the lot or parcel of land." Also, the minutes of the BBC meeting specifically state "costs incurred are to become a lien upon the property." (Authority San Bernardino Municipal Code 15.28.170, attached) The decision of the Board was appealed to the Council then on April 21 continued for 90 days. Sept. 8 - The Council rescinded the Resolution for Abatement order of the Board of Build- in Commissioners. The removal of' . cussed or included in the rescind- ng 0 e a a r. 0 remove e lien infers t ere w a p em to eg1n W1 ,n ere was a pro 1em. The costs identified are authorized and required to be charged to the owner by Municipal Code (15.28.050 and 15.28.060). The Municipal Code (15.28.030) requires a title search to identify owners of record and any others having a material interest in the property. Our cost is now $150 per title, then it was $100. The inspector's and secretary's time is less than actual. Time involved includes taking the complaint, site visit, taking pictures and inspecting site, making attempts to contact, written notices, meeting time, posting of property, second and third site visits to see if there is compliance, and recordation of activity and filing of same. The compensation and retirement costs are apart of salary and justified. The equipment only includes car and not office equipment. The mailings do not include all mailings, only those before the hearing. The administrative cost does not cover any significant portion of the time spent on this matter. Hearing time is established as the time before the Board and offsets the expense of the Board. The attorney has spent time at the meeting and prior to the meeting reviewing the material to be presented. . . The co~ts of $183.03 are reasonable and required by code. The appeal time of 30 days of costs has ired (SBMC 1.26.010). - --- ~ , IlQUUT )f "..' 86-203467 SVy ,cas RECORDED IN OFFICIAL RECORL:: iS86 JUL 2 I PH 2: 03 SAN i::c.l(i~ARDINO CO.. CALIF.
