On 04/16/2004 at approx 1400 hours, Officer Rodriguez and I (Officer Von Dauber) were
dispatched to 153 Bridge Street for a report of a verbal argument between neighbors. Upon
arrival, I met with Norman Zalesky and Peter Gross who were contractors hired to remove
siding from 153 Bridge Street. The owner of the residence is Michael Shaughnessy. Zalesky
stated that he is being prevented from doing his work by a male later identified as Richard Finn.
I inquired why Finn did not want Zalesky working on the house and why he was trying to
prevent him from doing his work. Zalesky was reluctant to say why. Finally, after asking
several time, Zalesky informed me that Finn believed the siding that he was removing to be
asbestos. Zalesky stated that it was "cement board" and not asbestos.
At that point Finn approached Zalesky as I was speaking to him (Zalesky). Finn was
abrasive in his approach. I requested that he speak with Officer Rodriguez while I speak with
Zalesky. I wanted to keep the parties separate to avoid having the incident escalate. Zalesky led
me to the siding that he had removed. I noticed that it was fibrous on one side. I then requested
that the Health and Building Inspector respond.
While speaking with Zalesky and Gross, Zalesky claimed that Gross was pushed by Finn
and that Finn threatened to hit Zalesky if he did not stop removing the asbestos siding.
The Northampton Director of Public Health, Ernest Mathieu, arrived on scene. I informed
Mathieu of the situation. He examined the siding and confirmed it to be asbestos siding. I then
ordered Zalesky and Gross to immediately stop work. Mathieu also informed them they are to
halt all work on the house. Moments later, Stanley Szewczyk (Building Inspector's Office)
arrived and revoked the building permit and issued a stop work order.
Finn stated that he observed that Zalesky was removing asbestos. He informed Zalesky of
the situation but Zalesky would not listen or stop what he was doing. At that point, Zalesky was
breaking the asbestos tiles with a hammer to get them into cardboard boxes. He was also
loading the broken tiles into the back of his van to bring them to the land fill. Since Zalesky
would not stop, Finn told him the he would physically stop him if he had to. At that point,
Zalesky phoned the police to keep the peace.
According to Finn, he had contacted the EPA and OSHA about the infractions. Finn's son,
James Finn was also on scene. Photos were taken and attached to this report. The Building and
Health Inspectors contacted the appropriate agencies. Shaughnessy was informed of the
situation. Zalesky was advised to seek a complaint at District Court for the Assault Charges.
