Hello Code Enforcement the coffee break is over. I have 5 business's in the Dimond Dist that do not have trash service. They use city cans or just dump next to them. Code Enforcement cannot figure out how to fix problem even when lead to it. Good Luck.

The City of Oakland Public Works Department has referred this issue to CODE ENFORCEMENT,. Please contact that department to follow-up (see "Other Helpful Links" at http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/Connect/ReportaProblem/index.htm#Links).

Problems at this address have been referred to "Code Enforcement" about 1,234,567,890 times, with no apparent results.

This particular address is a serious health/safety issue. That peeling paint is more than likely lead-based. Does anyone know if this is a rental? Oakland Building Department isn't so great at enforcing or inspecting, so I'm not surprised at how long this building has remained unchanged.

Not to mention that you vigilantes aren't usually very good at distinguishing between abandoned properties like this one and others that are undergoing long overdue renovations.

Moderators please.

In reality, moderators don't please anybody except those who have something to hide. Let's just get this property cleaned up.

Our independent inspectors report that the building in question has undergone complete renovation.
