| 05/03/2012 | INSP - INITIAL CODE ENFORCMENT | LPUMPHRE | Approved | On site inspection at request of tenant who had list of complaints for review by code enforcement. Violations found: lack of operable fire detector in hallway outside bedrooms, section of wall in hallway lacking drywall (open to framing); gas heater turned off by SWG due to hazardous conditions (ventilation, etc.), ventilation for heater is not installed properly. Master bath shower and fixtures are not installed properly and are non operational. Kitchen sink is loose, rending plumbing susceptible to damage. Two electrical outlets in kitchen prep area require GFCI outlets. See research for additional information. |
| 09/26/2012 | INSP - FOLLOW UP CODE ENFORCE | LPUMPHRE | Approved | Violations abated; met owner at property. The heater ventilation appeared to be installed correctly at time of inspection from interior viewpoint only; determined that permit not required. It has been noted that SW gas was out 9/21/12, but wasn't able to access interior or assess condition of ventilation themselves. Owner was advised to have SW gas come back out to be able to check appliances before use per visit. Apparently they left meter on 9/21/12. |
