Dear Mr. Ritzdorf:
In February of 1984, you received a Notice and Order for the abatement
of substandard and/or unsafe conditions that exist at the structure
located at the above referenced address. (copy attached) This
notification provided you with two options for the abatement of the
substandard conditions:
1) Secure the proper permits and rebuild the structure in
compliance with the provisions of the Springfield
Structural Specialty Code or
2) Demolish the structure, including the complete removal of
all debris.
The 'option you selected was to secure the required permits and
rebuild the structure.
Section 303(d), of the Springfield Building Code Administrative Code,
states that if the building or work authorized by such permit is not
commenced within 180 days from the date of such permit, or if the
bUilding or work authorized by such permit is suspended or abandoned
after the work is commenced for a period of 180 days, the permit
sha 11 expi re by Ii mi tat i on and become null and voi d. The permi t"s
that you obtained in July of 1984 for the reconstruction of the
structure have subsequently expired. Our records indicate that the
only requested inspections performed at the site were conducted prior
to the placing of concrete for the sidewalk and driveway approach. A
recent inspection of the property revealed that the substandard
and/or unsafe conditions which were identified in the original Notice
and Order still exist. Consequently, you failure to complete the
required repairs and/or maintain valid permits, compels the City to
obtain abatement of the substandard conditions through the demolition
of the structure.

The demolition of the structure must commence within thirty (30) days
from the date of this letter (January 2, 1986) and must be completed
within sixty (60) days (February 2, 1986). Completion means that the
property must be inspected and approved by appropriate
representatives of the Buildin9 Safety Division. Permits to demolish
the structure can be obtained at the Springfield Office of Community
and Economic Development, 225 North 5th Street, Springfield, Oregon.
If you do not take corrective action within the time frame outlined
above, the City will seek compliance with the Building Safety Codes
through legal recourse which may include Municipal Court proceedings
or the City may proceed to eliminate the hazard and charge the costs
thereof against the property or its owner.
If you have any questions relative to the above procedure, please
contact me at 726-3753.
Sincerely,
