If electrical components are <br /> exposed to water, building codes require water damaged electrical equipment to be replaced. (IPMC section 604.1.1) <br /> The leaking roof within this apartment has created conditions that are Unsafe as defined by code (IPMC 304.1.1 (8) <br /> Failure to repair the leaking roof and manage the conditions within the structure would quickly render the Structure <br /> Unfit for human occupancy as per IPMC section 108.1.3. <br /> If the conditions persist it is my recommendation that affected areas of the building be condemned as outlined within <br /> the code (IPMC 108.1) and (IPMC 108.5) <br /> I fully support your enforcement efforts to abate the conditions within this structure. <br /> Regards <br /> Ted de Budden <br /> am <br /> Chief Inspector I Permit Services <br /> 425.257-72711 3200 Cedar Street, 2nd Floor, Everett,WA 98201 <br /> EVERETT Hours: Monday—Friday 7:30am-12:00pm and 1:00pm-4:00pm <br /> everettwa.gov I Facebook I Twitter <br /> Note:Emails and attachments sent to and from the City of Everett are public records and may be subject to disclosure pursuant to the Public <br /> Records Act. <br /> 1 <br />
