Subject: Silber, PL-SPP-2022-000016: History of violations
In the Introduction to this SP application, it states:
"The applicant was issued a Notice of Violation and Order on December 5, 2019 pertaining
to
the unpermitted operation of the holistic education center and is seeking a Special Permit in
order to remedy that violation and legitimize the center."
In the PD Background Report, the very first sentence states that the applicant is
requesting a Special Permit "to legitimize the operation of a holistic education center."
In the PD Recommendation (10/28/22) the first sentence says "...the Deputy Planning
Direcor recommends that the request for a Specil Permit to legitimize the operation of a
holistic education center... be approved..."
Why does the center need to be `legitimized?"The PD Background Report fails to tell us
this important "background" information.
Attached, please find three relevant Planning Department Documents that fill in this missing
background information, all being certified letters sent to Mr. Robert J. Silber:
1.
December 5, 2019 Notice of Violation and Order. File No. ZCV 2017-007E.
>"Immediately cease and desist the unpermitted operations and overnight
accommodations on the Property."
>"Correct all violations at your own expense..."
>"Pay a fine in the amount of$5000, pursuant to ...State Law..."
>"Pay a civil fine in the amount of$500 for the violations of County Law..."
2.
January 30, 2020 Inspection/Corrective Actions.
>"The permitted greenhouse was converted into an activity structure and within the
structure it contains a wooden floor, raised stage, bed(s), conga drum, speakers and
yoga/exercise mats. No agricultural activity was noticed within the structure"
>"There are two unpermitted two-story structures with stairs leading to the upper
floor. Each structure has eight (8) rooms, and ...one of the rooms...being occupied."
>"Immediately cease and desist use of any unpermitted structures..."
>"Immediately cease and desist any non-agricultural activities in the greenhouse.
Remove all non-agricultural related items and revert to its approved use as a
`greenhouse'..."
>'Immediately cease and desist use of all tents as accommodations..."
>Secure approval for the use of all unpermitted structures, as allowed by this
Department or demolish all of the unpermitted structures."
3.
January 10, 2023 Daily Fines Letter
>To date you have failed to comply with the Notice of Violation (NOV) and Order
dated December 5, 2019..."
>As of the date of this letter, your fines have accrued to $508,500..."

approximately $593,000.
• Since 2019, Mr. Silber has never ceased his unpermitted operations and overnight
accommodations, in defiance of the NOV.

using any of his unpermitted buildings, in defiance of the NOV.
