O1f0s BUILDING INSPECTION DEPARTMENT
March 23, 1982
Mr. George Gaekle
City Manager
City of Dublin
6500 Dublin Blvd. , Suite 218
Dublin, CA 94560
7360 SAN RAMON RD. , DUBLIN - OWNER, JOHN NICHANDROS
On January 8, 1981 a hearing was held in connection with the abatement of several
additions and structures built without permits at the subject address. An Order
of Abatement was issued specifying that the additions and structures be constructed
to comply with building and fire codes by a specified time. If the additions
and structures were not brought up to code, then they were to be removed. The
order further provided that if the owner did not remove the buildings, this office
I, was authorized to remove the additions and structures.
The time for compliance has long since expired. This office is desirous of proceeding
with the abatement. Since this property is now located in the City of Dublin, it
is believed that this matter should be reviewed by your City Attorney before pro-
ceeding. It will be necessary to determine whether the order to abate was not
invalidated by the incorporation. If the order is valid, the question as to how
to proceed should be guided by advice from your City Attorney. Finally, the City
Council should be at a minimum apprised of any pending action.
The problem of construction without a permit was compounded by the proposed frontage
road on the west side of San Ramon Rd. Mr. Nichandros was unwilling to meet several
requirements of the Road Department in connection with the proposed frontage road.
It may be that the city will develop different plans in connection with the proposed
frontage road.
It is suggested that it may be appropriate to meet with you and visit the site so
:'c that you may become more familiar with the problem. I am enclosing a copy of the
:: abatement order and a December 24, 1980 memo that briefly describes the problem.
Finally, it may be appropriate to discuss procedures to be followed to any future
enforcement proceedings within Dublin.
If you have any questions, please call me at 881-6421 .
