Selig: Upon receipt of the letters from the ::verett f'ire Department, I investigated further to ascertain the exact nature of the complaint from I�r. Hills R. Collins, the Fire Marshall for the City of Everett. Recent discussions with Nr. Dougherty, the Chief Electrical Inspector for the City of Everett discloses that for the most part, the corrections involved cord extension :ype wiring, which is a matter of housekeeping and reshuffling of the various equipment in the stores at the shopping center. In rarticular, I�r. Dougherty refei•red to the refrigerator and clock outlets in the drug store. The food store has extensions to an office area, various signs, and additional cases , which are illegal extensions by virtue of their wirirg method, as well as a possible hazard to the building itself from a fire standpoint. It would appear that each tenant does his o�an extensions with cords as he sees fit, which is not in your best interest, as well as the various tenants. The most reasonable approach is the one sug9ested by �1r. Dougherty that proper outlets be provided for the various uses which your tenants seem to be requiring, or the immediate disconnection of various facilities which have been i]legally extended. I trust that you will review this • situation with your tenants so that a proper resolution of the si:uaY.ion can be arrived at without further consultation with the Fire Department. If we can be of further service to you, piease do not hesitate to call . Thanking you for your courtesy and consideration, 'I am Very truly yours, � Ray 0'Leary COCNRAN ELECTRIC COMPANY RO'L;jk "
