P.O. 8Ox 1988 <br />SANTA ANA, CAIITORNIA 92702 <br />May 31, 1984 <br />Mr. Ralph Al1en <br />c/o Ralph A11en & Partners <br />520 North Main Street, Ste. 200 <br />Santa Ana, Ca. 92701 <br />Dear Ralph: <br />In response to your letter to me dated t4ay 29, 1984, identified as your <br />#515-84, wherein you requested an extension of occupancy for the Dr. <br />Beauchamp office's at 410 North Main Street, Santa Ana, I submit to you <br />the follouj.ng 3 <br />Under the City'd,Seismlc Safety OrCinance, we have no authority to <br />allow the tenant \f the Class III (Medium Risk) buildinS at 410 North <br />Main Street to occ\.rpy rhe building beyond the July 29, 1984 dead1lne, <br />unfess he is ln conformance uith said ordinance. As I told you on the <br />phone last week, the only way he can remain within conformance of the <br />code is to obtai.n building permits for full seismic rehabilitation prj.or <br />to the July 29, 7981+ deadline. <br />The ovner of the subject building has previously requested, within the <br />time limitations, a lower classj.fication of the building. However, <br />based upon the use of Lhe building the occuPancy 1eve1 of the use could <br />not be conputed low enough to qualify it for Low Risk status. This <br />leaves us with the seismic rehabilitation buildlng permit as the only <br />available and 1egal option. t have discussed this matter with the bui.ldin8 <br />ovner and explained the entire situation. <br />I am sorry I cannot accommodate your request. You should be aware that <br />the property owner has had over nine rnonths, since the first notice uas <br />mailed, to determine how to conply with the Seismic 0rdinance. I vould <br />recommend that the owner take appropriate action to obtain building permits <br />as soon as is possible. <br />Very truly yours, <br />Phil Freeland, Director <br />Planning & Development Services <br />PF: ih <br />cc: City Manager, Thomas Pedrini, Mrs. Clair Satnick, Dr. James Beauchamp <br />@f lp,t*t-
