Dear Mr. Smith
This department received a complaint alleging health and safety hazards at the above referenced
living unit. On May 7, 2003 an inspection was conducted by this department. The owner (Juan C
Flores) and tenants are not currently occupying the structure. The structure at this site has
numerous electrical hazards including but not limited to'open conductors and conductor splices,
unprotected conductors, and a lack of proper grounding and bonding.
As the Chief Building Inspector for Butte County, I am requesting that the electrical and gas to
the structure referenced above be disconnected until appropriate actions are taken to resolve the
hazards. Further, I request that the electrical and gas service not be reconnected until an
authorization from this Department is granted to do so. Tliis letter shall also serve as notice to the
property owner and tenants that the electrical and gas service is to be disconnected.
Should you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Scott Rutherford or
Michael Vieira at the number above.
Sincerely
A�
Scott Rutherford
Chief Building Inspector
