This week's shape

This week’s useful paper is mostly new construction complaints, vacant-property flags, and a few active investigations. The cleanest call list is in San Diego’s coastal and central neighborhoods, plus a smaller pocket of county cases in El Cajon, Spring Valley, Ramona, and Bonsall. Ignore the closed trash and graffiti noise; the items below are the ones still moving.

#	Type	City	Status	Address	Owner	Ranking basis	Access
1	Complaint	—	New	3xx Billman St, San Diego CA 92115 United States	owner withheld	Fresh complaint on unpermitted canyon construction. New work in a visible hillside area tends to draw attention fast, and this one looks like it is still early enough to matter before it gets cleaned up or regularized.	Sign in
2	Complaint	—	New	6xx Glenroy St, San Diego CA 92120 United States	owner withheld	Unpermitted construction, plumbing, and wall changes on a residential property. That is the kind of scope that often turns into a bigger permit and inspection problem if it is already underway.	Sign in
3	Complaint	—	New	4xx Mount Etna Dr, San Diego CA 92117 United States	owner withheld	Walls removed and a dumpster on site suggest active remodel work, not just a complaint over paperwork. Good call for anyone tracking possible gut-reno or resale-before-finalization risk.	Sign in
4	Complaint	—	New	4xx Cass St, San Diego CA United States	owner withheld	ADU conversion is underway and the complaint says no permit has issued yet. That is a direct lead on a property where work may be moving ahead of approvals.	Sign in
5	Complaint	—	New	4xx Kleefeld Av, San Diego CA 92117 United States	owner withheld	Multiple unpermitted components at one property: garage conversion, electrical panel, deck, and rear building. This is the sort of stacked scope that can force a pause, not just a warning letter.	Sign in
