Dear Property Owner,
On October 25, 2021, City of San Luis Obispo Community Development Department staff noted the following
violations of the San Luis Obispo Municipal Code or other relevant codes at the above listed address:
1. Permit Required (SLOMC 15.02.010, California Residential Code 105.1)
“Any owner or owner’s authorized agent who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair,
move, demolish or change the occupancy of a building or structure, or to erect, install,
enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical or plumbing
system, the installation of which is regulated by this code, or to cause any such work to be
performed, shall first make application to the building official and obtain the required
permit.”
2. Improper Occupancy (SLOMC 15.02.010, Uniform Housing Code 1001.14)
“All buildings or portions there-of occupied for living, sleeping, cooking or dining purposes
that were not designed or intended to be used for such occupancies shall be considered
substandard.”
During the annual Fire Inspection, it was discovered that the deck of units 16, 18 and 19 have been
enclosed and are being used as sleeping areas. This was done without permits and is not habitable space.
Please contact our Planning Department at 805-781-7170 to determine if the space can be permitted as a
sleeping area. If not, a demo permit will be required to return the decks to their allowed use. Use of the
space shall cease immediately.
ALL REQUIRED WORK MUST BE COMPLETED WITHIN 90 DAYS OF PERMIT ISSUANCE.
We request that you voluntarily take action to correct the above noted violation(s) no later than December 2,
2021. These violations constitute a public nuisance and must be abated. Failure to correct the violation(s) by the
specified date will result in the issuance of an Administrative Citation requiring payment of FINES in accordance
with SLOMC Chapter 1.24. For Municipal Code violations that remain uncorrected after issuance of an
Administrative Citation, the City may seek enforcement by other civil or criminal remedies.
Any person having a title interest in the property may request a Director’s review of this Notice by completing the
enclosed Request for Director’s Review Form and submitting it to the Community Development Department via
email at code@slocity.org or to 919 Palm Street, San Luis Obispo, CA 93401, within five (5) days of the date of
this Notice. This Notice shall be deemed final unless you timely file a Request for Director’s Review.
We look forward to working with you to resolve these violations and would like to thank you for your effort s to
maintain your property and to help preserve the safety and beauty of our community. If you have questions,
please contact the undersigned Officer at (805) 783-7841 or ssheats@slocity.org.
