| 03/22/2019 | INSP - INITIAL CODE ENFORCMENT | GOODMAN | Approved | VISITED SITE, FOUND A R/V ON THE CORNER OF N FONTANA AND E KELSO ST. I KNOCKED ON THE DOOR OF THE R/V, IDENTIFIED MYSELF AND ASKED PERSON INSIDE TO COME OUT. PERSON INSIDE SAID HE WOULD BE OUT, I WAITED BUT HE DID NOT COME OUT. I FOUND A EXTENSION CORD RUNNING TO THE HOUSE AT 255 E KELSO, I CHECKED THE STREET AND THERE DID APPEAR TO BE WASTE ON THE STREET FROM THE SMELL. I WENT TO THE HOUSE WHERE THE EXTENSION CORD WAS COMING FROM BECAUSE OCCUPANT OF THE R/V HAD NOT COME OUT. I KNOCKED ON THE DOOR AND THE DOOR FELL OPEN, I QUICKLY PULLED IT CLOSED. A FEMALE OCCUPANT ANSWERED THE DOOR, I ASKED IF THEY WERE SUPPLYING POWER CORD TO THE R/V, SHE SAID THEY WERE, I MENTIONED THAT WAS NOT ALLOWED, IT WAS A CITY CODE VIOLATION AND SHE WOULD NEED TO REMOVE THE CORD. I WENT TO THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE TO THE WINDOW THE CORD WAS COMING OUT OF, THE WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY OPEN, I HEARD THE FEMALE OCCUPANT ON THE PHONE TELLING SOMEONE I WAS TRYING TO DISCONNECT THE CORD EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT. I KNOCKED ON THE WINDOW AND ASKED IF SHE COULD DISCONNECT THE CORD AND SHE DID. I WENT BACK TO THE R/V THE OCCUPANT STILL HAD NOT COME OUT. I TOLD HIM THAT HE WAS PARKED ON THE CITY RIGHT OF WAY AND HAD DISPENSED WASTE INTO THE STREET. HE ASKED ME WHAT THE CITY RIGHT OF WAY WAS. I TOLD HIM PARKING ON THE CITY ROW AND DISPENSING WASTE WAS A CODE VIOLATION. HE BECAME IRRITATED AND LOUD. SO I WALKED ACROSS THE STREET AND CALLED 911, GAVE THEM MY INFORMATION AND CITY COMM SAID THEY WOULD SEND A OFFICER OUT BUT IT MAY BE A WHILE. ABOUT THAT TIME A PERSON I BELIEVE TO TO BE THE HOMEOWNER ARRIVED IN A GREEN AND WHITE TAXI, HE WAS CARRYING A GUN I THOUGHT WAS PROBABLY LICENSED BUT WAS NOT SURE. I THEN CALLED OFFICER RUSS POPE, ASKED HIM IF HE COULD GET A OFFICER TO COME OUT QUICKER, OFF POPE STATED THERE WAS A OFFICER INVOLVED SHOOTING AT FONTANA AND FT LOWELL AND I WOULD NOT GET A OFFICER ANYTIME SOON, I TOLD HIM THE HOME OWNER WAS CARRYING A GUN AND OFF POPE ASKED I LEAVE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. ABOUT THAT TIME THE OWNER GOT IN THE R/V EVENTUALLY GOT IT STARTED AND MOVED IT INTO HIS DRIVEWAY. I TOLD THE OWNER THAT I HAD CUT THE ELECTRICAL CORD RUNNING TO THE R/V BECAUSE THE OCCUPANT OF THE R/V DID NOT REMOVE THE CORD WHEN HE WAS ASKED AND DID NOT DO SO UNTIL HE (THE OWNER) DECIDED TO MOVE THE R/V. HOMEOWNER MOVED THE R/V INTO HIS DRIVEWAY. BOTH HOMEOWNER AND OCCUPANT OF THE R/V STATED THEY ATTEMPTED TO CLEAN THE WASTE USING BLEACH AND THAT HE WAS NOT INTENTIONALLY DUMPING WASTE, THERE WAS A ACCIDENTAL LEAK. tHE PIPE EXITING THE R/V I BELIEVE TO BE FOR THE WASTE WAS TAPED UP. I LEFT THE PROPERTY PER OFFICER POPE BE FORE I COULD ISSUE A NOV. A BUSINESS CARD WAS GIVEN TO THE HOMEOWNER. SPOKE WITH MARTIN ROMERO, EXPLAINED THE OWNER HAD REMOVED ELECTRIC, MOVED THE R/V INTO FRIEND'S DRIVEWAY AND ATTEMPTED TO CLEAN THE WASTE WITH BLEACH. ASKED IF NOV WAS REQUIRED, MARTIN SAID NOT AT THIS TIME. |

DID ISSUE A TICKET FOR EXPIRED LICENSE AND BEING ON THE STREET. SPOKE WITH MARTIN ROMERO WHO STATED C/E HAS NO FURTHER ISSUES AT THIS TIME AND TO CLOSE THE CASE. COMPLIANCE / CLOSE CASE. |
