326-330 Hermann St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 326-330 Hermann St in Hayes Valley, owned by Kathy G. Ober and constructed in 1900, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety events over the past decades.

Most recently, the building has experienced multiple sidewalk parking violations, with ten documented incidents between late 2023 and mid-2024 involving vehicles blocking the sidewalk, though enforcement responses varied in effectiveness. The building's maintenance history includes a complete reroofing in 2016 costing $12,600, and a notable incident in 2007 involving the replacement of a charred support post in the rear stairs, suggesting past fire-related issues. A routine inspection in 2001 identified multiple fire safety concerns that were subsequently addressed by September 2010, including violations related to fire escapes, smoke detectors, garbage storage, handrails, fire extinguishers, and combustible storage.

A 2010 complaint regarding peeling paint led to lead hazard remediation, and the building experienced a carbon monoxide detector activation with no actual CO detected at some point, though no injuries were reported. The property has also required some street space permits over the years, with the most recent being issued in 2010 for $1. While the building has a history of addressing its maintenance and safety issues, the recent pattern of sidewalk parking violations may indicate ongoing logistical challenges in the area.
