RE: Substandar ousin 43 L a u s e n St., Oroville, CA
95965 AP# 033-067-005)
Dear Mr . Jos.{Zh -.
On January 27., 1994, with the permission of, and in the presence
of your tenant, I inspected your above stated rental dwelling,
and the following, but not limited to, substandard items were
discovered:
1. The front door is not weather -tight. -
2. Six (6) windows are broken.
3. There are about one hundred holes in the living room
ceiling. (The shape of the holes leads me to believe
.that they were made with a knife.)
4. The wood stove has a vent made from a single piece of
metal. A double or triple vent pipe may be required.
5. A light bulb in the living room needs a protective
cover.
6. There is exposed electrical wiring at a light fixture
in the bathroom, and the light fixture has no on-off
switch.
7. The lavatory in the bathroom is not connected to the
waste plumbing system.
G. There is a hole in the bathroom floor.
9. Wood surrounding the kitchen sink is rotten.
10. Two lights in the kitchen need protective covers. One
light has no on-off switch.
11. The tenant claims that water leaks in over the kitchen
stove when it rains.
12. A light in the front bedroom needs a protective cover
and must be fastened to the ceiling.
13. There is exposed wiring at a light fixture next to a
closet in the front bedroom. The light needs a
protective cover and an on-off switch.

14. The trot -water heater needs a pipe attached to the
pressure -temperature relief valve. The pipe must be
properly extended to the outside of the house.
15. The washing machine discharges onto the surface of the
ground, and the bath tub may not be connected into the
waste plumbing system.
16. The wooden sub -roof under the tin roof is partially
rotten.
17. There is a hole in the exterior north wall.
18. A non -waterproof plug is on the exterior of the north
wall.
19. A light on the front porch is not weatherproof.
20. The trap-door in the living room must be secured to the
floor.
21. The living room floor may need bracing as the tenant
told me that her husband had to install a brace under
the living room floor.
22. One front porch post must be secured to the floor.
23. There is exposed wiring from the house to the storage
building.
24. There is no safety shield on the electrical service
box.
25. Windows on the west side of the dwelling are not
weather -tight.
26. The front concrete step is deteriorated, and boards
near the step are rotten.
With respect to the above items, your rental dwelling is
substandard with reference to the State of California Housing
Code, Section 17920.3 - a copy of which is enclosed for your
information.
You are hereby notified to comply with the above stated code
within THIRTY (30) DAYS from receipt of this letter by correcting
the substandard items.
Some of the corrections may need permits from the Butte County
Building Department, 7 County Center Drive, Oroville, CA 95966,
phone (916)-538-7541, and you must obtain the necessary permits
before making the repairs.
