Dear Mary: ;
Thank you to you .and Mark Powell for taking the time yesterday to review the current changes

changes made to the floor system were necessary to add an addition course of block to the
perimeter of the foundation wall.' This course is needed to allow for proper drainage of rain
water away from the structure, and what is being constructed complies with the Building Code.
Please note that the Building. Code requires that all changes to the approved building plans are
to be submitted to the Building Inspection Department for review. Approval of the revised
plans is needed prior to any alterations being made. 1 suggest that you obtain a` clean `copy of
