According to our records, the courtesy notice has not resulted in abatement or correction of the following specific violations: 1. The accumulation of junk in public view. 2. The keeping of inoperable vehicles in public view. Your failure to eliminate the stated violations is cause for the issuance of this formal warning notice. This is notice that as of this date, our records indicate that the following violations to the Butte County Code still exist: Butte County Code, Chapter 24, Section 24-65 - Applicability of zoning regulations. All uses of land within a zoned district not specifically authorized or permitted by regulations are prohibited. Butte County Code, Chapter 24, Section 24-90 - The A-5 (Agricultural, 5 -acre minimum parcel) zone does not "specifically authorize" large accumulations of junk. The storing of more than 100 square feet of "junk" on a parcel is one of the items used to determine that a "junkyard" condition exists. A "junkyard" is not an allowed use in the A-5 zone without a Use Permit. "Automobiles and other vehicles, dismantled, in whole or in part" are considered to be "junk." Chapter 11, Section 114 forbids people, whether at a licensed junkyard location or not, from storing junk in public view. The determination that this violation exists on the property is based on the following definition in the Butte County Code: t r Delbert and Joanne Springer AN 021-132-024 July 8, 2004 Page 2 Butte County Code, Chapter 24, Section 24-305.240 - Junk.
