I have been unable to reach both families by telephone.
On October 2, 1998, we were informed that a trellis was constructed at your property in front of the
garage off Eastfield Drive. Upon separate inspections by District Engineering Associate Rafael Bernal
and myself, we observed that indeed, a trellis had been constructed in that area. Mr. Bernal left the
attached form on October 8, 1998 to advise you to obtain City approval and a building permit for the
trellis.
Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 15.04.010 and Los Angeles County Building Code Section 106
(Permits Required) require that, "No person shall erect, construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move,
improve, remove, connect, convert, demolish, or equip any building, structure or portion thereof, or

landscaping as regulated by Chapter 71, or cause the same to be done, without first obtainine a separate
permit for each such building, structure, automatic fire -extinguishing system, grading or landscaping
from the building official."
Please contact this office within fourteen days s (by October 28, 1998) to arrange an office meeting or to
inform us of any planned action.
We also recommend that you discuss this matter with the Rolling Hills Community Association.
Should you have any questions regarding the Rolling Hills Municipal Code, please feel free to call us

Dear Mr. Nealis,

CITY. DE ,ROLLING FilLL
It is our understanding that you have been informed of the
existence of piles of wood all along our west boundary, a
dilapidated wood workshop crammed full of wood, and an
extended carport on Dr. Basque's property .
Besides being an aesthetic eyesore & against the city's
otherwise strict codes & covenants, this poses a serious fire
hazard to our property.
We are not aware if Dr. Basque has any kind of an updated
sprinkler system. We have noticed him trying to water his
land in parts by a manual water hose.
Please let us know what has been done to correct this
condition.
Thank you,
. Kaush=1 Tamboli

SUBJECT: COMPLAINT AT 49 EASTFIELD DR. DATE: 1/1R4,444»........,..
IN RESPONSE TO YOUR LETTER DATED 1/12/94 REGARDING
POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARDS AT 49 EASTFIELD DR. AN INVESTIGATION
WAS MADE BY ME TODAY.
THE TAMBOLI'S SEEM TO HAVE CONCERNS IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS:
1. DRY OVERGROWTH ABUTTING THEIR PROPERTY.
THERE IS A HAZARD ALONG THE PROPERTY LINE IN THAT THERE IS
A ROW OF MATURE EUCALYPTUS TREES THAT ARE OVERGROWN AND
NEED TO BE "LACED OUT".
2. AN ILLEGAL CARPORT IN THE EASEMENT.
THIS APPEARS TO BE THE CASE BUT IS NOT A FIRE DEPARTMENT
CONCERN.
3. STACKS OF FIREWOOD ALONG THE PROPERTY LINE.
WE ACCEPT NEATLY STACKED FIREWOOD WHICH IS AT LEAST 10'
FROM ANY STRUCTURE. THERE IS SOME FIREWOOD STACKED
ALONGSIDE THE HOUSE THAT I GAVE THEM A NOTICE TO MOVE.
4. THE ROOF IS COVERED WITH PIECES OF WOOD.
THERE ARE LOOSE SHINGLES STACKED ON THE ROOF,
ACCUMULATED TREE LEAVES, AND WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE DEBRIS
FROM A SOLAR HEATER. I GAVE THEM A NOTICE TO REMOVE THESE
ITEMS FROM THE ROOF.
5. THERE IS A STORAGE SHED THAT HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED ALONG A
LARGE PORTION OF THE E. EASEMENT.
THIS TO SEEMS TO BE THE CASE BUT IS NOT A FIRE DEPARTMENT
CONCERN.
I MET MIKKI BASQUE AT THE PROPERTY. SHE IS HOUSE SITTING
WHILE HER PARENTS ARE TRAVELING IN MEXICO FOR TWO MONTHS. SHE
SAID SHE DOES NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY OR ASSETS TO TAKE CARE
OF THESE PROBLEMS. SHE SAID IF HER PARENTS CALL SHE WILL TELL
THEM WHAT IS GOING ON.
ON MY FIRST NOTICE I DID NOT MENTION LACING OUT THE
EUCALYPTUS TREES BUT IN LIGHT OF THE RECENT FIRES THIS NEEDS
TO BE DONE AS OVERGROWN LANDSCAPING CONTRIBUTED TO THE
INTENSITY AND SPREAD OF THOSE FIRES. A SECOND OFFICIAL
INSPECTION NOTICE WILL BE MAILED TO THE BASQUES.
