Re: Notice and Order to Comply With The Springfield Building Safety Code Administrative Code Relative
To The Unsafe And Substandard Buildings at 4978 Y2 Main Street, Springfield, Oregon
Dear Ms. Breeden:
As a result of a recent inspection, the City of Springfield Community Services Division, Building Safety,
has determined that the structures located at the above referenced location, also known as Lane County
Assessors Map #17023332, Tax Lot 04201, for reasons below, substandard and unsafe buildings as
described in the Springfield Building Safety Code Administrative Code. Lane County Assessment and
Taxation records reveal that you are the owner of this property.
Section 203 of the Springfield Building Safety Code Administrative Code classifies structures which are
structurally inadequate or dangerous to human life as unsafe. Section 1001 of the Springfield Housing
Code specifies conditions constituting substandard buildings. The following conditions include but are not
limited to conditions existing at the structures identified above, classifying them as substandard and unsafe
buildings.
1. The property is not currently served with electrical service. Where there is electrical power
available within 300 feet of the premises of the building, such building shall be connected to such
electrical power.
2, The Housing Code requires hot and cold running water in each dwelling unit. Because the
structure is not currently served with electrical service, the structure is identified as having
inadequate sanitation. The lack of electrical service prevents any existing approved hot water
capabilities to the structure.
Section 204 (b) of the Administrative Code provides procedures where the Building Official may require
vacation of the premises when cited deficiencies represent an immediate hazard to life, limb, property or
safety of the public or its occupants, Notice is hereby served that the property is being posted to be vacated
by 5:00 p.m July 2,2003 due to the potential hazards to the occupants resulting from the above cited
conditions. If you, or your tenants do not vacate the premise within the time frame specified, the City will
seek compliance with the Building Safety Codes through legal recourse, which may include Municipal
Court proceedings.
Once the property has been vacated, occupancy may not take place until the above mentioned unsafe and
substandard conditions are corrected and approved by this office.
Any person having any record, title or legal interest in the building may appeal from this Notice and Order
to the Building Board of Appeals, provided that he appeal is made in writing and filed with the Building

Official within thirty (30) days from the date of service of this Notice and Order. Failure to appeal will
constitute a waiver of all right to an administrative hearing and determination of this matter.
Your anticipated courtesy and cooperation is appreciated. If you have any questions, you may contact me at
726-3663.
