Cases were heard as follows. BCV #2138 - Walter and William Pixley and Margaret Hensinger: Barry Kramer, Department of Planning Services, presented the case report for the record, indicating final inspections were still not completed for water, electrical and skirting, and no building permit was issued for the deck. This failure to complete inspections and have permits finaled is a violation of Sections 20.10.3 and 70.4.2 of the Weld County Building Code Ordinance and all inspections must be completed, approved and the permits finaled to correct the violation. Walter Pixley, property owner, was present and stated most of the work should be finished by Friday, February 17, and he would acquire the necessary building permit for the deck. In response to Chairman Hall, Mr. Pixley indicated thirty days would be sufficient time to complete the necessary work and arrange for final inspections. Commissioner Webster moved to delay referral to the County Attorney for legal action of BCV #2138 against Walter and William Pixley and Margaret Hensinger for thirty days to allow the property owner to complete the necessary work and arrange for final inspection by Building Inspections staff. Commissioner Baxter seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. VI #2140 - Timothy Ortega: Mr. Kramer presented the case report for the record and stated Mr. Ortega is operating an appliance repair and delivery business from his home, which is in the R-5 Zone and is a violation of Section 32.6.2 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. He indicated Mr. Ortega must discontinue the operation of the business from his residence to correct the violation. Mr. Kramer referred to a letter received February 13, from Mr. Ortega which states the business will be moved to a new location no later than February 20, 1995. Mr. Kramer clarified for Commissioner Baxter that since this area is zoned R-5, a home office can be located at this location, but not a home business or home occupation. Commissioner Baxter moved to delay referral of VI #2140 against Timothy Ortega to the County Attorney for legal action until March 1, 1995, to allow Mr. Ortega time to relocate his business. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Webster and carried unanimously. VI #2153 - Ernest Peterson: Mr. Kramer presented this case report for the record. He indicated Mr. Peterson place fill material within a flood hazard overlay district without a Flood Hazard Development Permit, which is a violation of Section 53.6.1.4 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Peterson must apply for and have approved a Flood Hazard Development Permit or remove the material from the area to bring the property into compliance. Mr. Kramer advised the Board that Mr. Peterson submitted a permit application to the Department of Planning Services on 950203 PL0824 BUILDING CODE AND ZONING VIOLATIONS PAGE 2 February 9, 1995, and requested this case be continued to the March 14, 1995 Violation Hearings.
