WHEREAS, this Council has held a hearing and has heard
and considered all relevant evidence and testimony from all
interested persons desiring to be heard concerning the conditions
constituting the alleged nuisance and the proposed abatement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Lynwood
does hereby find, determine, order and resolve as follows:,

837, Tract 3078, Page 048, Book 31, generally known as 12102 Long
' Beach Boulevard, Lynwood, California, is hereby found and
declared to be a public nuisance as defined in Chapter 21 of the
Lynwood City Code.

including the staff reports, recommendation, all of the papers
and photographs and other things contained in staff files, which
are hereby incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
Section 2 . The particular conditions of said property
which are hereby found and- determined to constitute a nuisance
are described as follows:
1. The abandoned building is not properly boarded up.
Broken windows and unsecured doors constitute a
hazardous condition and invite trespasses.
2. The building is considered a health and safety
hazard since it attracts vagrants who occupy the
premise, often times conducting illegal activities
and initiating fires.
3. Remodeling of the structure started without proper
permits pursuant to the Uniform Building Codes and
zoning Ordinance requirements.
4. On 3/23/89, permit application was approved by the
Site Plan Committee, however, no action has been
taken as of today from the applicant. -
5. The property has suffered a number of fires over
the past several years, including a fire incident
earlier this year. According to the declaration
of the City Fire Chief, the property in its
present condition constitutes an immediate threat
to the public health, safety and welfare.

Hearing.
