Dear Mr. Damaw:
Laws and regulations in our society are, at times, difficult to understand
and fully comprehend. This is true of zoning ordinances, which are laws
intended to protect and govern the many different uses of land in Spokane
County. It is my responsibility, as the Zoning Investigator, when the
situation arises, to help resolve conflicts involving the Spokane County
Zoning Ordinance.
This office has received reports regarding the keeping of cattle on your
property, located at N. 3013 Ella Road, Spokane County, parcel number
07542-0802.
A recent visual inspection by our field inspector indicated, we believe,
that these reports are accurate.
Unfortunately, Section 4.06.030 of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance
stipulates that in a Two -Family Residential Zone, in which your property
is located, "...A person shall not keep or maintain any animals, livestock
or poultry of any age in the Two -Family Residential Zone, whether such
animals, livestock or poultry are kept or maintained for the personal
use of the occupants or otherwise except that nothing in this Title shall
prohibit the keeping of household pets for the personal enjoyment of the
occupant."
We are of the opinion that since you have now been informed of the require-
ments of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance, a period of 30 days, beginning
with your receipt of this letter, should be sufficient time in which to bring
your property into compliance by removal of the cattle.
Do not hesitate to act upon this important matter, since a violation of the
Spokane County Zoning Ordinance is a misdemeanor and does carry a penalty.

November 10, 1981
If the above mentioned time frame is insufficient, please contact this office
immediately in order that an equitable time frame might be established in
which your property will be brought into compliance with the ordinance re-
quirements.
If you wish to discuss these findings, have any questions, or believe these
allegations to be unfounded, please feel free to contact me at 456-3675.

Pat Dumaw was in my office concerning your letter of November 10th. I would
like to find out who has made the complaint to your department about him.
There is a troublemaker in his neighborhood somewhere that has complained
to the authorities about his dogs, cattle etc. and in general is making life
miserable for this man and his family.
Certainly he has a right to know who is accusor is and this information will
be appreciated.

In response to your letter of November 17, 1981, concerning Mr. Dumaw, un-
fortunately this office is not at liberty to divulge the name(s) of the
complaining party. Additionally, the complaining party has not indicated
a desire that their name be released.
Upon receipt of a complaint alledging a zoning violation, a field inspection
is conducted by this office in order to determine the validity of the complaint
with regards to probable violations of zoning ordinance requirements.
If a violation is found, the County, via this office, becomes the complainant.
We will be happy to discuss this matter with either you or your client at your
convenience in working towards a resolution of this matter.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Mark Holman
Zoning Investigator

Mr. P. A. Dumaw
N. 3013 Ella Road
Spokane, WA 99206
Dear Mr. Dumaw:
It has been some time now since we last contacted you regarding the cattle
being kept on your property, located at N. 3013 Ella Road, Spokane County,
parcel number 07542-0802.
A recent visual inspection by our field inspector indicates, we believe,
that you are continuing to keep these cattle on your property.
As stated in our letter of November 10, 1981, Section 4.06.003 of the
Spokane County Zoning Ordinance stipulates that in a Two -Family Residen-
tial Zone, in which your property is located, "...A person shall not keep
or maintain any animals, livestock or poultry of any age in the Two -Family
Residential Zone, whether such animals, livestock or poultry are kept or
maintained for the personal use of the occupants or otherwise except that
nothing in this Title shall prohibit the keeping of household pets for
the personal enjoyment of the occupant."
Due to the length of time this matter has been pending, we are of the
opinion that a period of 14 days, beginning with your receipt of this letter,
should be sufficient extension of time for you to bring your property into
compliance with the requirements of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance. If
these matters are not taken care of within the previously mentioned 14 days,
we will be unable to grant any further extensions of time and will have no
choice but to forward this case to the Spokane County Prosecuting Attorney's
Office for appropriate legal action. A violation of the Spokane County
Zoning Ordinance is a criminal offense and does carry a penalty of, "...two
hundred and fifty dollars ($250.00) or imprisoned in the County Jail for a
term of not exceeding ninety (90) days, for each offense. Each day that a
violation is permitted to exist shall constitute a separate offense."

allegations to be unfounded, please feel free to contact me at 456-3675.
