Yes this is the house next door to me, I have called the city three times to report work being done without a permit. The person doing the work has no contractor license and of course no permit yet he has a crew out there working for the last 3 weeks. I spoke with him and he says he is friends with someone in the building department so I guess that means you dont need a permit if you make friends with people in the city offices. I had to pay 1100.00 dollars for my permit and hire a licensed contractor to do the work. No one seems to care that they are putting roofs on, remodeling the inside of the house and so forth
The address is 606 15th st n

Can the cops get involved?? They are dumping their trash on other peoples property that cant be legal

I dont think the city cares what they are doing at this property, there is a guy living there that is paying nothing to live there and has a slew of homeless people in and out all day, cops have been there numerous times

It is an unoccupied residence and is owned by someone on lives in california

First off they should not even be working on the house without a permit, how is that fair when the rest of us want to make this neighbor hood better. This means they can slap together garbage and move someone in with no one checking the quality of their work. I was told they were trying to make it another group home. You are supposed to have a special license for this, that means more needles out in the alley and more nasty garbage dropped off in the back of my house
