SUBJECT: PETITION FROM RESIDENTS IN THE WEST PITTSBURG AREA v�11�7
REQUESTING THE ABATEMENT OF PROPERTY AT 74 NORTH
BROADWAY, WEST PITTSBURG
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Acknowledge receipt of the reports from the Sheriff-Coroner and
Director of Building Inspection on steps which have been taken to
clean-up property at 74 N. Broadway, West Pittsburg.
BACKGROUND:
On July 19, 1988 the Board of Supervisors referred to the
Director of Building Inspection for a report a petition signed by
a number of residents in the area near 74 N. Broadway, West
Pittsburg, complaining about drugs being sold from the property
and asking the Board of Supervisors have the property abated.
Building Inspection responded to the petition as soon as they
received a copy of it, even before it was referred to them by the
Board. As the attached memo from Mr. Martindale indicates the
complaint was investigated on July 13 and a letter was sent to
the owner on July 14 . Copies of this letter and a follow-up
letter dated August 11, 1988 are attached. Since the Sheriff ' s
Office was also mentioned in the petition, the Sheriff ' s Office
responded as well. A copy of Assistant Sheriff RupfIs memo is
attached, indicating the steps that have been taken to clean up
the property and have the vacant units boarded up.
Subsequently the owner of the property has obtained a building
permit to do some remodeling on the building. All vacant units
are currently boarded up and the alleged drug traffic that was
going on has terminated.
The Building Inspection Department reports that the owner seems
to be cooperative and as long as progress is made in getting the
units rehabilitated again and livable no abatement action is
appropriate.
No further action by the Board of Supervisors appears necessary
at this time.

Pittsburg

By reference from your' Board, we became involved in subject action. Our
Patrol Division personnel continue to take a high profile posture in the
North Broadway area. They, supported by our Narcotics Unit, continue to
fight against the narcotics transactions that have occurred in that area.
In specific reference to 74 North Broadway, Lieutenant Snell, our Delta
Station Commander, reports that all but one of the apartments have been
vacated and are boarded up to prevent trespassing. We have also caused
to be removed, all abandoned vehicles from the rear of the complex. Our
operational impression is that crack dealers have moved from the area,
however, 'our vigilance will continue to the extent that resources and other
priorities 'allow.
