Refuse Permit; Permit Issued; Plans Found To Be Too Far Over Bluff. Looks to me like a structure still had to go through the “process” with the city before one could build. Reality of 1929 however says from time of purchase, of permits, of construction to open house was 6 months long. When Steven Udar-Hazy purchased about 2005, his process to approval to build was at least 5 years.
