Rimmer Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Illegal pub demolished PATTAYA:--A South Pattaya pub was ordered demolished for being constructed without proper permits. Regional building inspection chief Chris Chunsuriya oversaw the start of demolition Dec. 21 at the Muse Pub at Bali Hai Pier. The two-story building was erected without permission by Volna Entertainment Co. on 476 sq. meters of land near the jetty. City hall ordered construction halted on Nov. 15. The order was ignored. Officials then hired a private contractor to take down the building and bill the owner for the cost. The process is expected to take 45 days. -- © Copyright Pattaya Mail 2018-01-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicowoodduck Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I do believe they quickly relocated on the second floor of the Avenue near Robinhood Tavern? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 45 days.... I suppose one guy with a sledgehammer will take a while but even that seems lengthy for a flimsy looking building. They should have hired a better equipped genuine contractor instead of the usual family members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emster23 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I thought they might be starting in on beach side of Walking Street demolitions..... what ever has become of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulic Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 It appears someone with better connections does not want the competition. At least that is my conclusion considering all the buildings on the ocean side are illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ssshhh! They have formed a committee to rule if the buildings were buildings, and another to rule if they are indeed illegal (which will prove impossible because the paperwork has been lost), and committees have been formed to elect members of those committees. Another committee will decide if all those committees are legal. This all takes time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Pattaya46 said its a stand alone out near the lighthouse. And that whole area is a junkyard : The two garbage piers and all the decaying failed marina structures train wreck /piled up along the breakwater all the way to the lighthouse.

To me it looks like a well established building... not something built recently. maybe they are just reverting it back to a shell? other wise they could have pulled it down in 15 mins with a JCB (Backhoe).

Below: April 2017: The same building covered with Police Orders demanding the total demolition of the building for Public Land Encroachment... This building is closed for several years. Only a part of it encroaching public land, but the owner played a stupid game with Pattaya authorities with countless broken promises of doing himself the demolition, and at the end the court ordered demolition of the whole building. (Same story and sanction as for the Boutique Hotel) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens here in the UK, in my line of business the police can ask locksmith companies to secure premises and send the bill to the property owner, I will not undertake this type of work as getting paid is like trying to get blood out of a stone and is contrary to contractual law where the person commissioning the work is responsible for payment.

Quite easily I would imagine, especially if the people receiving the bill had refused to halt construction of a property after being told said construction was illegal..
