430 Taraval St, San Francisco, CA 94116

The 6-unit, 2-story apartment building at 430 Taraval St, owned by Simoni Zelko & Renee M, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1958. Most notably, a comprehensive replacement of the fire alarm system was recently completed in November 2024 at a cost of $28,611 to comply with current fire code requirements, following a fire complaint in October 2024 regarding the alarm systems that was subsequently corrected.

The building has seen consistent maintenance and upgrades over the years, including the installation of double-pane vinyl windows in 2012, reroofing in 2009, and various repairs to address issues such as dry rot and stucco damage in earlier years. A routine fire safety inspection in 2002 revealed multiple violations related to fire extinguishers and garbage receptacle placement, though these were promptly abated within a month. Recent activity regarding the property has primarily focused on external conditions, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 reporting sidewalk defects and garbage issues in the vicinity.

A particularly concerning open issue as of November 2024 is a collapsed sidewalk, which presents a potential safety hazard. The building's exterior has experienced occasional maintenance challenges, including graffiti incidents in 2021 and 2019, and a hazardous materials issue reported in 2018, though all these matters were resolved through appropriate channels. The property has maintained compliance with building codes through regular inspections and prompt addressing of identified issues, with no active violations on record.
