To the department of building inspection wherew they have a website to look at complaints. I go often on their website for novs on the property. Thats the basics of what i wanted to present and be available for questions. Supervisor scott weiner the issue we were discussing before with miss bossky about there not being a centralized data base, i would imagine planning would need to look at different departments. Do you have any thoughts on how we can move to more centralized Code Enforcement system in terms of information and data basis but also actual management and running the system . I think thats an excellent point and through development of the stella system that we asked about when we went to the expand ability of this, the port uses stella, we are using a system that is off the shelf that is especially for us in our processes. Right now its going to roll out primarily with dbi and planning but in the future with other divisions within the agencies would be great. Public health
Does seem to a lay person to be a fire risk. You are saying if there is not a combustible liquid there, there is no authority to take action . We will make sure that egress and ingres for firefighters is sufficient for the resident. However, beyond lieutenant, maybe i can help. I was in a situation where the home was very cluttered and the Building Owner complained about it and we went. What we did was we looked at the home and we can tell the resident lived there a long long time and it was a Single Family home and the at the present time was very aware of the fire code. What i explained to him is that we are concerned with anything that is fire related. If i cant open the door to get in, i cant put out your fire and you cannot get out of the building in an emergency. There was other things he did by locking the building by putting a screw in the window. I had to educate him. I had to tell him to remove the screws. With the screws there, he couldnt open the window and get on the fire
Staff members beginning at 5 and we have one staff member devoted to working on general advertising signs. Right now we have six planners as of today and going into our office we have six enforcement planners and we have one manager and one support staff for that function. And i know its been a challenge in terms of staffing. I know weve had situations with the billboard, the illegal billboards that go up. Its really completely as you know out of control. And i know that there has been litigation and the Billboard Companies are awful and litigious in terms of their behavior in getting to legal time down. How long does it take to get an illegal sign down once a complaint comes in . For now the turn around time is pretty quick especially if we have a repeat violate or provision. If someone is repeating the violation, the penalties can be higher. In terms of general turn around time, i think we get that notice out within 30 days and weve had really good success within the last couple of y
Department to determine whether or not there are other issues involved. Supervisor scott weiner lets say someone is a hoarder and they have all sorts of materials and papers and books and fabric and lets say there is technically someone who is rather skinny could squeeze through and get in and out and technically its egress and ingres and they start pouring gasoline all over but dont sit on fire, at some point there is an issue with the Fire Department even though its a Single Family home . Yes. If they started a fire using gasoline. Supervisor scott weiner not starting but creating a condition that is not a fire but can become a fire. I know its an extreme situation, but one could imagine it that you have tons of paper, a huge hoarding situation and there is a big thing of gasoline sitting there. But no fire yet. Would the Fire Department do anything . The Building Department would call the Fire Department to do an inspection. The Fire Department would send an inspector and request th
