Re: Parking structure at 3307 James Dr., Carlsbad
Dear Mr. Holniller:
We are writing to express our objection to a parking structure that has been constructed
without permit at the above referenced address. The structure in question sits on a lot
noticed that the structure w& not only up to, but over the property line. When we
questioned the contractor about this he informed us that it was against code, but that the
owner wanted it built despite this illegality. According to your codes enforcement officer,
our neighbor has ignaredrequests by the City to take the stmcture downand isww
requesting an a&inistrative variance to keep it in place. Despite additional city notices to
refiajn fiom an further building our neighbor continues to have work completed, typically
on Sundays.
which currently has- * y'2POQsq.Rofgaragespace. 1nrnb-w
Since he purchased ihe k_eighteenmanthS ago, this owner has totalky wed the five
year old home and garages on his property and constructed new buildings and an
enormous waterfall and small pool in openly stated disregard for city codes and the safety
of small children in the neighborhood. In its new form, this home has structures fi-om one
end of the property line to anather, In additkm, mr COfMgOn driveway has been routinely
blocked by construction crews and our privacy disregarded.
It is our opinion that this citizen's repeated willful disregard for city codes and neighbors
displays an attitude in direct conflict with the law and our community. We ask that this
variance be denied stnd that the cxmstrtxtkm stop. Tkmk yoti
consideration.
dvmm for your
