Re.: Notice to Comply with Letter Agreement/ County Code or Vacate within 10 Days
Dear David and Mickey Heisler:
As you know, this office represents Larry J. Kosmas of Portland, Oregon. Mr. Kosmas owns the land on which you are living in Deschutes County, Oregon. Our client was recently served with a certified letter (copy enclosed) from Deschutes County Code Enforcement alleging your occupancy and use of the land is in violation of three sections of the County Code.
Deschutes County Code Enforcement Technician Tim Grundeman stated in bis letter, "[ t]hese violations are as follows: ( 1) living in recreational vehicles on land zoned EFU ( exclusive farm use), ( 2) non -permitted on-site sewage disposal system and ( 3) accumulation of solid waste. This circumstance violates County Code sections 18. 116. 095, 13. 08. 050 & 13. 36.010." I have enclosed a copy of Mr. Grundeman' s letter dated April 13, 2007 along with the attachments so that you can see the full text and applicable County Code citations.
The notice of a violation of Deschutes County land use laws and ordinances has forced our client to demand that you remedy the actions that are in violation of applicable county laws and the Letter Agreement or vacate the property and remove all your belongings within Ten ( 10) Days. Since the county has alleged these violations, they will be the party with whom you will need to seek approval of compliance: If you are unable or unwilling to bring your occupancy into compliance with applicable law and cure your breach of the Letter Agreement governing your occupancy, then you must remove all personal property and vacate the premises by 11: 59 p.m. on May 12, 2007.
The pertinent sections of the Letter Agreement you signed on March 29, 2007 are as follows:
Section 2: Occupants shall use the Land in a careful and proper manner and shall comply with all laws, ordinances, and regulations relating to the
possession, use, or maintenance of the Land. Furthermore, Occupants shall maintain the Land in a safe, clean and sanitary condition.
Section 4: Occupants agree to assume all liability for, and to hold Owner harmless from, all damages, costs, and fees in the defense thereof, caused by the negligence or willful act of Occupants or Occupants' invitees or guests, in or upon any part of the Land.
Section 7: Occupants agree that if they remain in possession of said Land after the day they were to vacate pursuant to any notice, they will pay a daily rental fee of $45. 00 for each day thereafter. Owner may give the-Occupants Forty- five ( 45) days notice to vacate, without cause, at any time. Owner may give Occupants Ten ( 10) day' s notice to comply with any of the terms of the Agreement or vacate the Land.
Section 8: Occupants covenant and agree that in case Owner shall be made a party to any litigation commenced by or against Occupants, Occupants shall and will pay all costs and attorneys fees, including those on appeal, incurred by or imposed upon Owner by or in connection with such litigation.
You may contact me at any time to discuss your intentions or make arrangements to vacate the property, however, the timelines set forth in this notice will be strictly enforced. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.
THE SERVICE OF THIS NOTICE DOES NOT EFFECT AND IS NOT EFFECTED BY ANY OTHER NOTICE( S) SERVED UPON YOU.

The occupants later agreed to use the land subject to the provisions of a Letter Agreement dated March 15"', 2007. That agreement requires the occupants of the land to " comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations relating to the possession, use or maintenance ofthe land." ( See § 2, document previously provided.). Until your letter, our client was unaware that these occupants, David and Mickey Heisler, were using the land in such a way as to violate the County Code,
On Monday, April 30th 2007, our client' s son Thomas Kosmas personally delivered the enclosed Notice to Comply with Letter Agreemen /Cou.nty Code or Vacate within 10 Days. The Notice states in pertinent part, " if you are unable or unwilling to bring your occupancy into compliance with applicable law and cure your breach of the Letter Agreement governing your occupancy, then you rnu.st remove all personal property and vacate the premises by 11: 59 p.m. on.May 12, 2007." Mr. Heisler signed the Notice to indicate his receipt thereof and further stated to Mr. Kosmas' son. that he would seek compliance.
Please keep our office and Mr. Kosmas up to date on any compliance attempts initiated by Mr, Heisler.,If he fai..ls in his attempts to comply with.the demands set forth in your letter, please contact us immediately. if you clo not:hear from him, then we request
that you schedule a drive-by of the property some time after May 13t an.d inform us whether further action is needed to bring the property into compliance with the County Code. This may entail evicting the occupants and/ or additional clean- up.

1 hope this helps you. Tonight when I received this information I filled out and signed two complaint forms on these people. I do not have a fax machine here at the ranch, but I can scan and send them to you ifthat is enough? Or, I can bring them with me to the dog hearing tomorrow night.
By the way, my attorney will be appearing with me at the court hearing.
Thank you for all of your help! I gave your name to my neighbor ( legal neighbor) Janet & Keith Nash. They have signed numerous complaints against the squatters, but nothing was ever done!!! They may be contacting you as well as signed new complaints.
What is your partner's name? I hope you both liked the cookies! :-) alwaz—

RE: Deschutes County Code Violation - Case # C07102, C07103 & C07104 Taxlot:2015090001000 ( Millican)
Dear, Property Owner
This letter is to inform you of alleged violations as follows: ( 1) living in recreational vehicles on disposal system and ( 3) accumulation of solid 13. 08. 050 & 13. 36.010 ( see attached).
of the County Code associated with your property. These violations are land zoned EFU ( exclusive farm use), ( 2) non -permitted on-site sewage waste. This circumstance violates County Code sections 18. 116.095,
Since many violations occur because ofunfamiliarity with the county code, voluntary compliance is sought before further legal enforcement actions are taken. In the vast majority of cases, property owners correct the situation without the necessityforfurther action. The Countybelieves that voluntarycompliance generally is less expensive forallparties and ofa more satisfactory and lasting nature than involuntary compliance.
YouareherebyrequestedtocontactTimGrundemanat(541-385-1707) within 15 daystodiscussthedetails ofyourcase including necessary corrective action. In certain cases, the corrective actionmay beobvious. Nevertheless, youare still askedto contact our office to confirm your compliance and establish timelines.
For your information, code enforcement cases are initiated in several ways, including notification from County field personnel, other governmental agencies, and fromprivate citizens. Ineach case, confirmation oftheallegedviolation is required prior to the mailing of this letter. For more information on the Code Enforcement program, please visit the County's website at http:// www/co.deschutes. or.us ( Community Development Department), or stop by our lobby, to review the Deschutes County Code Enforcement Policy and Procedures Manual.
Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated. We look forward to hearing from you.
