To: Deputy City Attorney
From Building Technician
Subject: 4537 Cove Drive / George Shinn
An inspection of one unit of the duplex was conducted by Tony Mata,
Principal Building Inspector, Peter Dreibelbis, Building Inspector
II, and Ray Garrison Building Technician on February 21, 1991. This
inspection confirmed Mr Shinns attempt to deceive this department
and cover up his code violations rather than remove them.
The Loft area second kitchen had base cabinet in place and built in
wall cabinets. All electrical outlets, which were to be
removed,were simply plastered over. Upon removing the wet plaster
and wall board all electrical boxes and wires were still in place
behind the patch. The wall between the second kitchen and the
upper living room where a pass_thru existed was patched with out
studs to support the patch. The wall dividing the second floor was
gone and the stair way was open as required.
Because it is apparent that Mr Shinn is attempting to cover up
rather than remove the violations Principal Building Inspector
wants all cabinets removed from the loft areas, all unpermitted
electrical work removed from the walls and the electrical panel and
walls left open where electrical and unpermitted plumbing,was
removed, remove all finish flooring in the storage areas of the
loft.
Would you please Make Mr Shinn aware of these corrections, as he
has been very uncooperative with the Building Department staff and
I think a letter from you will do more to resolve this matter than
a letter from me.
