RE: Letter Dated Sept. 13 , 1996, 142 North Street
Dear Ms. Daniell,
I received your letter dated September 13 and wanted to confirm our
phone conversations as well as contents of your letter.
1. I agreed that chimney work would not be stopped but that the
contractor doing the work contact this office with regards to the
work to be performed. This was not done no contractor has contacted
this office for that work.
2. You stated that your clients, "have initiated all appropriate
steps towards obtaining the necessary building permits to complete
all desired finish work on the house" . Our office has been only
contacted by electrican' s, no contractor has contacted us for a
building permit for work performed or to finish work. The only
request was by Ms. Paulinski for an application for a permit to
install windows on porch, nothing has been done for securing a
building permit for the work performed on second floor,
specifically subdividing room into smaller rooms and installation
of exterior door.
3 . I will not seek an injunction to close the house as long as
steps are taken to secure the proper building and electrical
permits. The process for obtaining those permits starts in this
office with the contractors filling out the proper applications.
4 . The scheduling of inspections are to be made by the contractor
who secures the permit and our office. The contractor in turn can
work with you and your client to insure that the property will be
open for inspections.
I thank you for helping to resolve these issues. If you have any
questions please feel free to call.
