214-216 Fair Oaks St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 214-216 Fair Oaks St is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Verma Awaneesh & Garibay Es. The building has a complex history of permitted and unpermitted work, with significant renovations attempted between 2018 and 2024. Most notably, there are serious ongoing safety concerns due to uncompleted work and code violations.

An active complaint from August 2022 details multiple construction irregularities, including an unfinished rear garage, missing fire sprinkler systems, incorrect garage dimensions, and unauthorized excavation. Recent complaints from August 2024 allege unauthorized construction work by a general contractor and illegal serial permitting practices, raising additional safety concerns. The property has experienced several permit permit expiration issues, including a 2019 permit for unit remodeling that expired before final inspection.

Historical improvements include plumbing and electrical upgrades completed in 2018, which added new laundry facilities and upgraded services to all units. A significant violation was recorded in 2018 regarding unauthorized work that purportedly undermined a neighboring property's foundation, though this was eventually abated in 2019. The building's recent history has also included multiple parking enforcement issues, primarily concerning blocked driveways, and some maintenance matters such as graffiti removal and tree damage in 2018. A scheduled director's hearing for building code violations is set for October 15, 2024, indicating ongoing regulatory scrutiny of the property's condition and compliance status.
