If you returning my money prevents me from taking this to court to get this ordinance eliminated then don’t send back the money. There is data available it may not be a list form, but it is tied to my property and available to the public because the neighbors have accused me of running a fraternity on both my 526 Kentucky and 1229 Frederick St. and I am not. They have cited specific language from the city code enforcement office. I want to have that removed because it is erroneous and damages my reputation. I’d like to have your departments stop harassing my tenants and myself. I’ve had multiple tenants in both properties over the years that are generally unrelated to fraternities. I don’t ask tenants what clubs or fraternities they belong too or other personal questions. I think the city would probably be better off, allowing fraternities in a more zones because then they could require a use permit, which could allow them more control whenever there’s a violation . Right now they could have a satellite house anywhere and there’s really nothing the city can do other than noise violations. Regarding the “premised property” blacklist that the police department keeps as a matter of policy in order to escalate fines against anyone who answers the door is also unlawful. You cannot escalate a fine for an infraction based on the person who answers the door and that is what you have done for years. I would prefer not to go to court, but that seems to be the only way that your office is able to do the right thing. This is the first time that you’re hearing officer Mr Karlin was actually rendered an unbiased decision. In the past regarding noise violations, he has been completely biased and has apparently not read his job description because he has refused to question people in the process of investigating the violation as his job description specifically requires. Recently, you’re police department blacklist “premised property “list has been extended from one apartment to an entire apartment complex whenever there is a warning or a noise violation. I work very hard to try to keep my tenants in compliance with the codes and ordinances But there’s really no reward for that because every time I appeal a noise, violation and show that I have instigated liquidated damages against the tenants I’ve sent warning letters. I’ve done everything in my power to keep them from having a noise, violation or code violation. I still receive a fine for Mr. Carlin I don’t know exactly how many tenants I have but I’m guessing between 150 and 175 students and I get very few violations per year but because the city is no longer capable of being reasonable I have to take it to court every time.

Thank you David Scarry Sent from my iPhone On Mar 13, 2026, at 4:34 PM, Dietrick, Christine <cdietric@slocity.org> wrote: Dear Mr. Scarry, I’ve had an opportunity to review the complete record of the underlying citations and your appeal of Administrative Citation #ADM42008 (1229 Fredericks Street) related to your requests that the City 1) refund your appeal fee and 2) remove you and your properties from all “lists,” including “blacklisted premised property”. Your request was based on your appeal being granted on March 9th,which I confirm will result in both fines ($100 and $500) being revoked. In general, the fee charged for the appeal reflects the City’s costs in providing the appeal process, and those costs are not refunded whether or not the appellant prevails. However, after a full review, we have concluded that there were procedural errors related to the issuance of the underlying citations and, based on the unique facts in this instance, we will direct that your appeal fee be refunded in addition to revocation of the fines associated with the citation. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience the City’s error caused you. As to your second request, the City does not maintain any “no warning” list of properties cited for land use violations. You may be thinking of the noise ordinance “no warning” list. This “no warning” list relates to Section 9.12.110 of the municipal code, which states that “Once a violation of any provision of this chapter has been verified by a noise control or police officer, the owner(s) of the property where the violation occurred may be subject to administrative action or citation for allowing a subsequent violation of this chapter to occur on the property within nine months after the date of a previous violation, provided the property owner has received notification from the city of the previous violation and at least fourteen days have passed since the date the notification was mailed to the property owner(s).” If a tenant has received a noise violation over the past year, the property gets listed on the “no warning list,” and the tenants are no longer entitled to a courtesy warning prior to issuance of an administrative citation for a subsequent violation of the Noise Control ordinance (Chapter 9.12 of the municipal code). When a property is on the “no warning” list, a property owner may be cited for subsequent violations committed by the tenants occurring at the property of the owner because such repeat violations constitute a recurring nuisance use of property for which the property owner is ultimately responsible, after notice. No such “no warning” list or process specifically exists for zoning code violations, so there is no list from which to remove your property in the current context. Zoning code violations generally relate to land use, permitting and/or property maintenance violations on properties for which owners are always ultimately responsible for compliance. Unless there is an immediate health or safety issue, the first occurrence of those types of violations is generally issued a Notice to Correct, which is sent directly to the property owner in the first instance. Failures to correct or recurrences of the same type of violation will then result in a citation to the owner. As it relates to the property that was the subject of your appeal, I do want to caution that a valid (albeit delayed) Notice to Correct a violation of fraternity use regulations was issued on 11/20/2025 for a violation that was documented to have occurred on 9/27/2025, so please do advise your tenants that subsequent confirmed violations of those provisions can result in citation to you. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and I appreciate your patience to allow me time to review the full history and record.

If I am understanding the record correctly, there was a Notice to Correct (not a citation) sent to you by Code Enforcement regarding an event on 9/27, and I believe John Mezzapesa also provided you with a social media post promoting the event and a couple of pictures supporting the contention that the event in fact occurred at the property on the date advertised.

This “no warning” list relates to Section 9.12.110 of the municipal code, which states that “Once a violation of any provision of this chapter has been verified by a noise control or police officer, the owner(s) of the property where the violation occurred may be subject to administrative action or citation for allowing a subsequent violation of this chapter to occur on the property within nine months after the date of a previous violation, provided the property owner has received notification from the city of the previous violation and at least fourteen days have passed since the date the notification was mailed to the property owner(s).” If a tenant has received a noise violation over the past year, the property gets listed on the “no warning list,” and the tenants are no longer entitled to a courtesy warning prior to issuance of an administrative citation for a subsequent violation of the Noise Control ordinance (Chapter 9.12 of the municipal code). When a property is on the “no warning” list, a property owner may be cited for subsequent violations committed by the tenants occurring at the property of the owner because such repeat violations constitute a recurring nuisance use of property for which the property owner is ultimately responsible, after notice. No such “no warning” list or process specifically exists for zoning code violations, so there is no list from which to remove your property in the current context. ultimately responsible for compliance. Unless there is an immediate health or safety issue, the first occurrence of those types of violations is generally issued a Notice to Correct, which is sent directly to the property owner in the first instance. Failures to correct or recurrences of the same type of violation will then result in a citation to the owner. As it relates to the property that was the subject of your appeal, I do want to caution that a valid (albeit delayed) Notice to Correct a violation of fraternity use regulations was issued on 11/20/2025 for a violation that was documented to have occurred on 9/27/2025, so please do advise your tenants that subsequent confirmed violations of those provisions can result in citation to you. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and I appreciate your patience to allow me time to review the full history and record.

If I am understanding the record correctly, there was a Notice to Correct (not a citation) sent to you by Code Enforcement regarding an event on 9/27, and I believe John Mezzapesa also provided you with a social media post promoting the event and a couple of pictures supporting the contention that the event in fact occurred at the property on the date advertised. That is what I was referring to as the prior notice that I was hoping you could reinforce with your tenants.

They have cited specific language from the city code enforcement office. I want to have that removed because it is erroneous and damages my reputation. I’d like to have your departments stop harassing my tenants and myself. I’ve had multiple tenants in both properties over the years that are generally unrelated to fraternities. I don’t ask tenants what clubs or fraternities they belong too or other personal questions. I think the city would probably be better off, allowing fraternities in a more zones because then they could require a use permit, which could allow them more control whenever there’s a violation . Right now they could have a satellite house anywhere and there’s really nothing the city can do other than noise violations. Regarding the “premised property” blacklist that the police department keeps as a matter of policy in order to escalate fines against anyone who answers the door is also unlawful. You cannot escalate a fine for an infraction based on the person who answers the door and that is what you have done for years. I would prefer not to go to court, but that seems to be the only way that your office is able to do the right thing. This is the first time that you’re hearing officer Mr Karlin was actually rendered an unbiased decision. In the past regarding noise violations, he has been completely biased and has apparently not read his job description because he has refused to question people in the process of investigating the violation as his job description specifically requires. Recently, you’re police department blacklist “premised property “list has been extended from one apartment to an entire apartment complex whenever there is a warning or a noise violation. I work very hard to try to keep my tenants in compliance with the codes and ordinances But there’s really no reward for that because every time I appeal a noise, violation and show that I have instigated liquidated damages against the tenants I’ve sent warning letters. I’ve done everything in my power to keep them from having a noise, violation or code violation. I still receive a fine for Mr. Carlin I don’t know exactly how many tenants I have but I’m guessing between 150 and 175 students and I get very few violations per year but because the city is no longer capable of being reasonable I have to take it to court every time. When Dan Blankey was your hearing officer I never had a single problem because he understood that I was doing my part to minimize bad behavior by the student tenants. I even had two houses next-door to him so he knew exactly how I handled the tenants. I look forward to your response and I would much prefer to resolve both your blacklist procedures and your essentially fine that needs to be paid in order to appeal an infraction issued by your departments .

Recently, you’re police department blacklist “premised property “list has been extended from one apartment to an entire apartment complex whenever there is a warning or a noise violation. I work very hard to try to keep my tenants in compliance with the codes and ordinances But there’s really no reward for that because every time I appeal a noise, violation and show that I have instigated liquidated damages against the tenants I’ve sent warning letters. I’ve done everything in my power to keep them from having a noise, violation or code violation. I still receive a fine for Mr. Carlin I don’t know exactly how many tenants I have but I’m guessing between 150 and 175 students and I get very few violations per year but because the city is no longer capable of being reasonable I have to take it to court every time. When Dan Blankey was your hearing officer I never had a single problem because he understood that I was doing my part to minimize bad behavior by the student tenants. I even had two houses next-door to him so he knew exactly how I handled the tenants. I look forward to your response and I would much prefer to resolve both your blacklist procedures and your essentially fine that needs to be paid in order to appeal an infraction I’ve requested the analysis of how you came up with the cost to appeal It seems difficult to imagine that the cost is related to a percentage of the fine that simply is illogical .

Your request was based on your appeal being granted on March 9th,which I confirm will result in both fines ($100 and $500) being revoked. In general, the fee charged for the appeal reflects the City’s costs in providing the appeal process, and those costs are not refunded whether or not the appellant prevails. However, after a full review, we have concluded that there were procedural errors related to the issuance of the underlying citations and, based on the unique facts in this instance, we will direct that your appeal fee be refunded in addition to revocation of the fines associated with the citation. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience the City’s error caused you. As to your second request, the City does not maintain any “no warning” list of properties cited for land use violations. You may be thinking of the noise ordinance “no warning” list. This “no warning” list relates to Section 9.12.110 of the municipal code, which states that “Once a violation of any provision of this chapter has been verified by a noise control or police officer, the owner(s) of the property where the violation occurred may be subject to administrative action or citation for allowing a subsequent violation of this chapter to occur on the property within nine months after the date of a previous violation, provided the property owner has received notification from the city of the previous violation and at least fourteen days have passed since the date the notification was mailed to the property owner(s).” If a tenant has received a noise violation over the past year, the property gets listed on the “no warning list,” and the tenants are no longer entitled to a courtesy warning prior to issuance of an administrative citation for a subsequent violation of the Noise Control ordinance (Chapter 9.12 of the municipal code). When a property is on the “no warning” list, a property owner may be cited for subsequent violations committed by the tenants occurring at the property of the owner because such repeat violations constitute a recurring nuisance use of property for which the property owner is ultimately responsible, after notice. No such “no warning” list or process specifically exists for zoning code violations, so there is no list from which to remove your property in the current context. Zoning code violations generally relate to land use, permitting and/or property maintenance violations on properties for which owners are always ultimately responsible for compliance. Unless there is an immediate health or safety issue, the first occurrence of those types of violations is generally issued a Notice to Correct, which is sent directly to the property owner in the first instance. Failures to correct or recurrences of the same type of violation will then result in a citation to the owner. As it relates to the property that was the subject of your appeal, I do want to caution that a valid (albeit delayed) Notice to Correct a violation of fraternity use regulations was issued on 11/20/2025 for a violation that was documented to have occurred on 9/27/2025, so please do advise your tenants that subsequent confirmed violations of those provisions can result in citation to you. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and I appreciate your patience to allow me time to review the full history and record.

Please send me a cost-of-service study showing proportionality of your fee (fine) for all appeals both community development department and police department as well as any other department that you decided it’s appropriate to fine a citizen as opposed to listen to their appeal. I’m also requesting the resolution adopting the October 2024 fee, the user fee study calculations specifically for appeal hearings, and any Prop 26 findings. I will also need a list all of the people who have been affected by this since 2024 when the ordinance was put in the place in order to file for a refund of all of their fees and all of their fines. Many people have opted to pay the fine instead of pay the 25% of the fine for an application which statistically would be denied by the cities review boards. I expect you to supply this information within the next 10 days that should be plenty of time because that’s how much time you allow for all of your appeals process applications .

There is simply an accusation that the people living at 1229 Frederick are operating a fraternity. The burden of proof is not on my tenants or me the burden of proof is on the city. I have no more access to confidential records of Calpoly than the city does. The city has not provided any concrete proof. Can you please help us by providing the address that the fraternity in question held events ? We are taking the appropriate actions to prevent the tenants from operating a fraternity at 1229 Fredrick street The letter that you sent unfortunately does not provide sufficient evidence to prove that a fraternity is operating there. If I need to file an appeal, please consider this my appeal and understand that I have taken the appropriate actions to remind the tenants that having a fraternity operating at that address would be a violation of their lease and city ordinances and is not permissible. If you have further evidence that would conclude that they had a sponsored fraternity event on the dates you have cited please do share it with me and I will have my attorney take the appropriate actions. Have you notified the tenants at 1229 about your concerns? Have you contacted the fraternity in question? If so, have you gotten any kind of a response?
