RE: Auto Repair - East 13209 6th Avenue
Dear Mr. Bartle:
It has been some time now since we last contacted you regarding auto
repair on your property located at East 13209 6th Avenue, Spokane
County parcel number 22541-0424.
A recent visual inspection by our field inspector indicates, we
believe, that auto repair is being conducted as evidenced by several
vehicles parked on the premises with at least two having the
appearance of being inoperable. In addition, numerous reports have
been received by this office regarding increasing auto repair
activities.
As stated in our letter of August 30, 1984, commercial uses are not
permitted within the Agricultural Zone classification.
Due to the length of time this matter has been pending and previous
notifications, 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 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 a matter that will go away if
ignored. I am sure it is important to you, as it is to me, that we
resolve this situation quickly.
Sincere y u-fs,
