Ref: Permit 2009-00024 for repairing roof rafters
I`(0 25— 51 911 s�
Dear Mr. Melville:
In the summer of 2006 you did a remodeling project for Chris and Sara Hayden without a permit. This
project involved the removal of a center bearing wall and your design plan of construction for the
reinforcement of the roof rafters and ceiling joists. This design plan failed as indicated by the cracked
ceiling and never would have been accepted by this department had you submitted them with a permit
application to obtain the required building permit.
You have since submitted an application and engineered design plans to make the corrections,obtained
a permit, and started work approximately a month ago. As work began there was a need for alternate
design plans which were faxed to me from the engineer, and there were also a few verbal changes. This
being the case, I need the following from you:
1) a complete set of wet signed design plans for this repair, including all of the changes made,and
2) the project complete.
As mentioned above,the roof system you designed has failed and structural damage to the ceiling
continues to appear. With this, I am directing you to have these repairs to the roof rafters and ceiling
joists completed as designed by your structural engineer no later than May 15, 2009.
The purpose of the Building Code is to provide standards to ensure the health,safety, and general
welfare of the community,and violations to the State Building Code adopted by the City are considered
a misdemeanor offense. If these repairs are not completed by May 15th, I will assume you have no
intention to comply with the Code,and I will be left with no alternative but to commence enforcement
through legal remedy as prescribed by City Ordinance for misdemeanor violations.
Sincerely,
4im Butlev-
