Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Re: Deck /Patio Work @ 14316 Upper 56 St. N. Dear Mr. & Mrs. Moller: Deck work has been observed in process at the above - referenced address, without a permit first having being issued. By Ordinance, the City of Oak Park Heights has adopted the Minnesota State Building Code (current edition 2007) and by its reference the 2006 International Residential Code. These codes require that a permit be issued for deck work and inspections conducted to verify compliance with the State Building Code and the International Residential Code. Additionally, Minnesota State law requires that any contractor engaging in the activity of construction services to residential properties be licensed by the State of Minnesota. A site visit was made to your residence where it deck or porch work to the rear yard was observed to be in process. At this time no permits have been applied for or issued for the work of any kind to the above - referenced property. A copy of the City deck permit handout is enclosed. Please complete the enclosed permit application for work done and return it to me. If you had a contractor perform the construction work, please note their name on the application and MN license number and their Lead Certification number if you have it. Upon receipt I will confirm license and lead certification and arrange to process your permit request. Upon its issuance, you shall contact me to arrange an onsite visit /inspection of the work so that code compliance may be verified. Submit your permit application(s) to my attention immediately. All work is to cease to this structure until such time a permit has been issued. You may fax, mail or email your applications and accompanying documentation. Thank you for your prompt attention. Please contact me immediately with any questions you may have. Sincerel , Jul'- H ultman, C.B.O. Pl . n ng & Code Enforcement Enclosures c: Property File
