The writing of this memo was approved by Deputy Director Chandler Martin. The San Joaquin County Code Enforcement Division has received in excess of eighteen (18)complaints about the subject property at 26292 E. River Rd. Escalon. The complaints date back to July of 2003,and.have continued to this year. These complaints are about excessive noise corning from the plant due to the plant operating atter the approved operating hours and on nights that were not approved for night operation or exceeded the number of nights that were approved to operate. Some of the complaints also were about the mud,din and rocks that is tracked onto the roadway or fall from the trucks while traveling on the roadways. In 2009,complaints were being received that the odor of burning rubber was being smelled and that the complainant believed the smell was coming from the plant due to a new requirement that used tires be used in the production of asphalt. In December 2006, a complaint was received that the plant had expanded its operation by increasing the amount of equipment and replacing older equipment. Upon inspection with the plant management it was determined that the plant was expanded and new equipment was installed without the issuance of building permits. The required permits were eventually applied for and issued. The last building permit was finaled in May 2009. Please refer to the two letters in your file dated September 27,2009,and Follow-up to letter dated September 27, 2009, for more detailed information by one of the complainants.
