She sent me two photos sent to her from the complainant showing rooftop view of neighbors yard with 4 or 5 cars in the back yard and wood waste. One photo was showing three cars in front of the house. Sandip asked how I was handling complaint. I briefed her, via email, the complaint narrative and told her I would call officer Thomas (SJC Code Enforcement). 06/01/2020 Emailed Officer Steve Thomas at sbthomas@sjgov.org to ask for update on complaint. Steve replied and told me there is an open case for inoperable vehicles, and that he is due to go to the property for recheck. He gave me the property owner's name and phone number: Daniel Torres, 209-314-4467. 06/12/2020 Went to property at 26422 N HVVY 99 Rd unannounced. As I walked up to the front door, none of the items I had observed on March 9, 2020 were there. I knocked on the metal screen door. Daniel Torres responded from the window adjacent to the front door. He opened the curtain a little to talk to me. He asked what I wanted since the neighbors keep complaining about everything and listed the complaints: the dirt, the rats and the cars. He pointed to what looks like a recently backfilled area of dirt on the front yard and told me to look at it, because the other person from EHD wanted him to send photos of the dirt. He asserted that he is not going to send any photos, so I should look at it now. I told him I wasn't there for the dirt. I was there previously with code enforcement officer because of the anonymous complaint that he was working of cars. I asked if he was working on cars at his property. He said, very little and solely on his cars. I asked him if he has any used oil, used antifreeze, used oil filters anywhere on the property. He said no. I asked him where he takes his waste. He said Autozone. I showed him a Household Hazardous Waste (HHVV) facility brochure. I pointed out the types of wastes he can take for no charge. I told him he needs to take waste there Autozone doesn't accept used antifreeze. I let him have the brochure and gave him my business card. No photos were taken as he was upset the whole time and unwilling to come outside. Abating complaint: unable to verify. 06/12/2020 Entered narrative.
