Hosting it out for receptions and parties. Hardly a residence. [/quote] So basically like a party home. [/quote] From all descriptions in the news story, it appears that it was a “venue” Rather than a Residence......and This is a pretty clear case of FRAUD by the city of Seattle by listing the property as a Residence if it is being claimed by the city to now not be a Residence. Keep in mind that they also violated The United States Constitution if they entered the property without a warrant or Probable cause to believe a crime was being committed. [/quote]

SEATTLE — Kroon purchased the property from the City of Seattle in a 2012 auction.
Kroon told KIRO 7 he “thought we had essentially bought a residential property” for $712,000.
The Seattle man then spent thousands of dollars on interior remodeling, and for more than three years, his extended family and friends used the firehouse for holidays, celebrations, charity fundraisers, graduation parties and as an office until a Land Use Notice of Violation arrived in July of 2016.
According to the City of Seattle's violation letter, a "complaint about this property" had been received. A Housing and Zoning Inspector "investigated" and found "violations of the Seattle Land Use Code."
