Supervisor scott weiner seems to me that its more of a centralization for the information for the department and the public and the ability of the department to know that other d...

And give them resources and help but at some point, the balance tips a little bit. So how do you address that eventually . Its very complicated in those cases. If there is no movement on the building and the permits expire we can issue another issue notice of violation and we can send another notices and maybe to the City Attorney.

But they, and you will have to decide how to handle that and the second thing or point that i want to make is how about repeated anonymous complaints that wastes a lot of resources do we say that we have a complaint on this building and every subsequent complainer we will tell them that we have it and we are not going to investigate further until the first one is solved. How do we han...
