3236-3238 Jennings St, San Francisco, CA 94124

The property at 3236-3238 Jennings Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 2000, currently owned by the Trust Of Jagdish & Sarita D. The building has a significant history of unauthorized unit conversions and safety code violations.

Notably, between 2012 and 2020, there were multiple violations documented regarding an illegal ground floor unit behind the garage, which was allegedly converted into living space with improper egress, electrical, and plumbing systems. This situation resulted in several building permits being issued to rectify the unauthorized modifications, including a 2020 permit for converting the garage to a 1-bedroom unit with bathroom and kitchen facilities, and a 2021 permit for installing a comprehensive fire sprinkler system throughout the ground floor. Recent records indicate ongoing fire safety concerns, with multiple fire code violations being issued between 2019 and 2024, including the most recent violations in October 2024 regarding alarm systems, exit signs, and rated doors.

The property has also experienced various maintenance issues, as evidenced by recent 311 calls regarding painting, sewer issues, garbage collection, and parking violations in 2024. The building's history includes several concerning tenant complaints, particularly in 2021, regarding illegal units, pest control issues, and inadequate amenities. While some safety improvements have been implemented, including fire sprinkler system installations in 2021-2022 at a cost of approximately $15,000, the property continues to exhibit fire safety violations and other maintenance concerns as of late 2024.
