Home My WebLink About3.0 CorrespondenceJim Hardcastle MEMO To; Steve Hackett, Code Enforcement Officer Sent: Monday, May 3,2004 Subject: Klein SUP request, Zone Violation Steve, This letter is to inform you of a possible Zoningviolation I have recently observed during a site visit to the residence of Beverly Klein of 1777 CR 241. Ms. Klein is applying for a Special Use Permit for the conversion of a l9l0 log cabin to an ADU (the dwelling unit on the right in the picture below). She has constructed a new home next to the cabin and was given a final inspection (but no C/O see attached document from Andy Schwaller) under building permit #8577 on 10127103 (the dwelling unit on the left in the picture below). The apparent violation (see picture below) is the traveVcamping trailer that is currently being used as a dwelling unit. It has water and electric connected and has a TV dish attached to the exlerior. The unit has been occupied on site for an apparent extended and ongoing period of time. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please update me with any information that you can in regard to your investigations.

Thank you for your consideration in this matter and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

As a condition to that building permit, the existing older house needed to be either torn down or become legal through a SUP before a C.O. would be issued. The Building Dept. did do a final inspection which was passed on 10.27.03. The final inspection allowed Mrs. Klein to secure her financing for the new building and issuance of a C.O. would be'delayed untilthe results of the SUP hearing are known. Copies of her letter requesting a conditionalC.O. are provided to you for review. As we do not issue conditional C.O.s the above scenario was used. Sorry for the confusion. Let me know if you have any questions.
