RE: Formal Warning Notice
Butte County Code Violation
Address: 4715 Virginia Ave., Oroville, CA.
AP# 035-2 7 035 .,
Dear William and Betty Baker:
Through our courtesy notice on June 16, 2003, you were notified pursuant to Section 41-2 of the Butte County
Code of the presence of code violations on your above -referenced property. According to our records, the
courtesy*notice has not resulted in abatement or correction of the accumulation of junk in public view and the
keeping of inoperable vehicles in public view. Your failure to eliminate the stated violations are cause for the
issuance of this formal warning notice.
As of this date, our records indicate that the following violations to the Butte County Code still exist:
Butte County Code, Chapter 24, Section 24-125 - The R -N (Residential -Nonconforming) 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 R -N zone without a Use Permit. "Automobiles and other vehicles, dismantled, in
whole or in part" are considered to be "junk." Chapter 11, Section 11-4 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:
County Code, Chapter 24, Section 24-305.240 Junk. Any worn-out and discarded material in general
that may be turned to some use including, but not limited to, any old iron, wire, copper, tin, lead, rags,
paper, bags, lumber, empty bottles, bones, parts of bicycles, tricycles, baby carriages, automobiles, and
other vehicles, dismantled, in whole or in part, kept, stored, located, situated or piled in public view, and
all other similar personal property ordinarily defined and classified as "junk" kept, stored, located,
situated or piled in public view and not screened from public view by a fence.

you are hereby requested to take the following abatement or correction actions:
Remove all "junk" in accordance with the Butte County Code, Chapter 24, Section 24-305.240.
2. Remove all inoperable/junk vehicles from the property.
This is your final warn. Unless you contact this office and make the proper arrangements to correct or abate
the violation(s) voluntarily, within ten10 days from the date of this letter, enforcement shall be pursued through
the issuance of a citation (ordering you to appear in court) for said violation(s) and for failing to comply with this
warning letter.
Upon conviction of said violation(s) or of failing to comply with this letter, the court shall impose penalties (fines)
and a Notice of Violation shall be recorded in accordance with Butte County Code Section 41-7. The Notice of
Violation will include a description of the premises the violation concerns, a description of the violation, the date
of your convictions and the action necessary to correct or abate the violation(s).

Sincerely,
