Records indicate that the structure has been altered without required permits and approvals and has been <br /> determined to be an Unlawful Structure as defined by Code and by a Hearings Examiner. <br /> 2. The Attic, Basement, and Garage have been ordered by Hearings Examiner to have been vacated by January 6, <br /> 2019,this has not occurred. Hearing Order CE18-0844 <br /> 3. Permits and all work to abate Code violations and deficiencies was to have been completed by January 6, 2019, <br /> this has not occurred. Hearing Order CE18-0844 <br /> 4. Today I observed numerous electrical hazards throughout the building including but not limited to: exposed <br /> unprotected wiring, open electrical splices, unsupported and improperly supported electrical wiring,damaged <br /> and missing electrical fixtures, missing panel cover, missing GFCI receptacles, etc. The electrical system within <br /> this structure is defined as Unsafe by code definition. IPMC 108.1.2 <br /> 5. Loose and missing guardrails were observed at the main exterior entry, basement steps and back patio area. <br /> These deficiencies present hazards to the occupants and are defined as Unsafe conditions. IPMC 304.10 and <br /> 304.12 <br /> 6. The attic rooms appear to be occupied, including by children and animals. <br /> 7. A woodstove located in the basement is installed in an unsafe manner.The stove is damaged, lacks required <br /> clearances to combustibles,safe connection to a chimney. <br /> Numerous hazards and code violations are present within the structure the list above is not a complete list of <br /> deficiencies within the structure. <br /> Efforts to comply with the Hearing Examiners Order have not occurred. <br /> The deficiencies observed today present life safety hazards to the occupants and visitors to the premises. <br /> The building is clearly an Unsafe Structure as defined by code and therefore Unfit for Occupancy. <br /> Thank you for your continuing efforts to Abate the Code Violations and Life Safety Hazards present at this property. <br /> Regards <br /> Ted de Budden <br /> mChief Inspector 1 Permit Services <br /> 425.257-72711 3200 Cedar Street, 2"d Floor, Everett,WA 98201 <br /> EVERETT Hours: Monday—Friday 7:30am-12:OOpm and 1:OOpm-4:OOpm <br /> everettwa.gov 1 Facebook 1 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 /> 11 z, <br />
