Per ADM, tenant (T1) resides at the facility. T1 is ADM’s son-in-law. LPM and LPA met with T1 and T3 and explained the regulations of tenants being fingerprint cleared at the facility and the bedroom which was converted from a garage needs building permit and fire clearance. As a result, the facility has been cited under 80019 Criminal Record Clearance.

LPM and LPA observed another bedroom build in the middle of the backyard as a stand-alone building, tenant 2 (T2) resides. Another bedroom on the left side of the facility (facing the house from the street) and tenant 3 (T3) lives in bedroom. ADM states these bedrooms do not have a fire clearance and do not have a building permit. ADM stated they were built after facility licensure.
