20-24 Vinton Ct, San Francisco, CA 94108

The 20-24 Vinton Court property, a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Hok Luk Investment Inc, has a significant history of maintenance and safety compliance issues. Most notably, between 2016 and 2022, the building underwent multiple fire safety inspections and violations, including a major cluster of violations in January 2022 involving electrical hazards, obstructed fire extinguishers, gas cylinder safety, door latches, and various other fire code requirements, all of which were subsequently abated.

The building has experienced several routine safety inspections, with the most recent occurring in 2016, revealing multiple fire safety concerns that were addressed by June 2016. In terms of infrastructure maintenance, the building has undergone several significant repairs, including multiple roofing projects, with permits issued in 2008 for reroofing work valued at $4,500, and gas pipe repairs in 2013. Historical records show the installation of showers in 1989 to meet housing code requirements.

The property has experienced some persistent issues with discarded debris and garbage on the street, with multiple 311 calls recorded in 2024 regarding abandoned furniture, mattresses, and general debris, though these municipal cases were all resolved promptly. While there have been occasional fire-related incidents reported over the years, including false alarms and service calls, none resulted in civilian injuries. The building's fire safety systems appear to have been maintained post-violations, as recent inspection records show no active violations, though the property has a notable history of requiring fire safety improvements and code compliance measures.
