N. Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Re: Basement Remodeling Work Dear Dawn: I visited your home earlier this week for inspection to the drain tile system installation done by Complete Basement Systems. While I was there I noted that there appears to have been some remodeling to basement at some point in time, including electrical and a toilet addition. I do not find any work permits issued to this home for lower level remodeling, plumbing or mechanical alteration and did not find reference to a recent electrical permit having been issued in the State of MN database. The last final inspection sticker in your electrical panel is dated 12-16-77. MN State Code requires work permits be issued for remodeling, alteration of plumbing, mechanical and electrical systems. Without the knowledge of the work scope or inspection, I have no way of knowing if the toilet has been installed correctly; however, as the area appears, it is not a conforming bathroom. Additionally, the electrical work appears to be potentially non-compliant and may present a safety hazard. While it is possible that you have plans for attending to these items, I encourage you to contact an electrician to review the work in the basement and correct it so that it is safe. I further encourage you to see the assistance of a qualified plumber and mechanical person with regard to those systems in your lower level. Please contact me if you would like to discuss this situation. Sincerely PLANNING & CODE ENFORCEMENT Juli,IHultman Building Official C: Property File Tree City U.S.A. ' La 4 • '. ;- „t• w .
