WAi111M6TON I <br /> Dear Dr. Drumheller: +°'°' <br /> , •, <br /> y gust 13th1Ptter p����T� ���Moro, <br /> , I have reviewed the comments made in our Au <br /> with the City IIuilding Inspection Department, the City Fire � <br /> Marshal and the Chief of Police. <br /> First, let me assure you that the application for a building permit <br /> to remodel the Parific and Colby 73uilding has not been d�nied by <br /> the City of �verett. 'Phe Uuilding permit application is currently <br /> being checked by the City Plan Checker and reviewed by other <br /> departmenta of the City to check compliance with the law and <br /> ordinances under their jurisdictior in accordance with Section i <br /> 302 (A) of the Uniform 13uilding Code.

The purpoae ! <br /> of this inspection is not only to insure that tlie woric described i <br /> in an application conforms to the requirements of the building code, <br /> but also to identify those existing hazardoua conditions which the <br /> owner should correct and may wish to incorporate into his renovation <br /> project, lt sliould Ue recognized that the Fire Marshal has tlie <br /> atrthority and responsi.Uiliiy under tlie Pire Prevention Code to <br /> correct hazardous conditions by issuance of a I�ire Marshal's Order <br /> at any time that a hazardous condition Uecomes apparent to him. <br /> By identifying po:ential l�azards prior to major renovation it ie <br /> possiUle to encourage Lhe elimination of hazardous conditions by <br /> incorporation into the proposed project and thus save the owner the + <br /> expense of a separate project that may be required ae a reault of <br /> a rire Marahal's Order.
