Dear Mr. Nilles:

Department of Building & Safety
JAMES L. MANSON, DIRECTOR
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 storage of inoperable
vehicles and/or hulks on your property, located at E. 7922 Euclid
Spokane County, parcel number 07542-0101. This property is zoned
Agricultural Suburban.
A recent visual inspection by our field inspector indicated, we
believe, that these reports are accurate.
Section 4.03.020(32A) of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance defines
inoperable vehicles as follows:
"Junk or Parts Vehicles" shall mean the remnants or remains of a
motorized or non -motorized device capable of being moved upon a
public highway and in, upon, or by which any person or property
is or may be transported or drawn upon a public highway and which
is inoperative. Such term shall include, but not be limited to
vehicle hulks, trailers, semi -trailers, tractors, motorcycles,
trucks, and buses."
Section 4.17.170 requires that storage of inoperable vehicles or
parts thereof shall be in accordance with the following provisions:
1. No "Junk or Parts Vehicles" may be stored within the front,
flanking street, or side yard setback area; and
2. All "Junk or Parts Vehicles" must be completely sight -
screened year-round, from a non -elevated view, by a fence,
hedge, shrubs or (maintained landscaped berm) (natural
landscaped berm).

It is the intent of this letter to advise you of an apparent zoning
violation and to request compliance within a suitable time frame.
Accordingly, we are of the opinion that since you have now been
informed of the requirements of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance,
a period of 30 days, beginning with the date of this letter, should be
sufficient time in which to bring your property into compliance by
either removing all inoperable vehicles and parts from the property
or by screening the vehicles from view as required in Section
4.17.170 noted above.
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.
If the above mentioned time frame is insufficient, please contact
this office within 7 days in order that an equitable time frame might
be established in which your property will be brought into compliance
with the ordinance requirements.
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.
Sincerely,
DEPARTMENT OF BUILDING AND SAFETY

It has been some time now since we last contacted you regarding the
storage of inoperable vehicles on your property located at East 7922
Euclid, Spokane County parcel number 07542-0101.
A recent visual inspection by our field inspector indicates that no
effort has been made to comply with the provisions of the Spokane
County Zoning Ordinance governing storage of junk vehicles. In
fact, it appears that you have placed one more hulk on your property.
As stated in our letter of July 12, 1985, you were granted thirty (30)
days in which to either remove the inoperable vehicles and hulks, or
by providing a completely sight -screened area for storage.
Due to the length of time this matter has been pending, we are of the
opinion that a period of ten (10) days, beginning with your receipt of
this letter, should be a sufficient extension of time for you to
complete the process of bringing 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 ten
(10) 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 without
further notice. A violation of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance
is a criminal offense and does carry a penalty of, "... imprisonment
in the County Jail for a maximum term fixed by the court of not more
than ninety (90) days or by a fine in an amount fixed by the court of
not more than one thousand dollars ($1,000), or both such
imprisonment and fine."
Please be advised that this is not
ignored. I am sure it is important
resolve this situation quickly.
Sincerely yours,
DEPART NT OFDILDING AND SAFETY
