Scouring through City Docs as we are liken to do on Friday afternoons, and yes we said "liken", we discovered this interesting Code Violation by none other than the only interior designer anybody could possibly ever recognize, Kelly Wearstler of KWID. Seems The Wearstler has been illegally using her bungalow on Kings Road as a business without proper permits. You may recall, we featured the 317 Kings Rd home on our site, as it was for sale as of late March. The MLS listing has since been taken down.
