SUBJECT: Revocation of Building Permit For 2075 Laura Street
On December 28, 1977; Koala Structures, Inc.'of 2787 Olympic Street, Spring-
field, Oregon, submitted plans for a metal clad, ,stud-frame ,building to be
located on property owned by Ms. Afra Ingham at 2075 Laura Street. Based on
information given to the Plans Examiner, Dan Smith, at the time the application
was submitted, the building was designated as a garage and reviewed as such.
Such a building is a permitted use in an,RA Suburban Zoning District.
On January 23, 1978, a resident of the Laura Street area' called the Spring-
field Planning Department and spoke to Julio Iturreria. The caller informed
Mr. Iturreria that work was beginning on a building at the subject address
which was against the non-conforming use status of the property. Further
investigation by the Planning Department and the Building Division cOnfirm,ed
that, although zoned RA Suburban, the property was occupied by a commercial
business, and thus did constitute a non-conforming use under Section 24.0) of
the Springfield Zoning Code.
Thus, on the morning of Janu8.ry 24, 1978, a stop work order was issued and the
building permit (H 11527) was revolked, The situatiDn was immediately explained
to workman at the site, as well as to Ms. Ingham, Ms. Ingham was also informed
that she could apply to the Springfield Planning Commission for a conditional
use permit allowing the proposed construction. An application for a conditional
use permit was delievered to Ms. Ingham the same afternoon.
On February 15, 1978, the Planning'Commission heard a request by Ms. Ingham
for a conditiDnal u~e permit. The request was unanimously 'denied.
At the time the stop work order was iSSUed, excavation of the site was complete.
Workman at the site were in the process of setting concrete forms for the
foundation work. No concrete had yet been poured, and none was visable at
the site. There were no called inspection requests prior to the issuance
of the stop wDrk order,
