Mr. Puent asked me to respond to your inquiry regarding needed repairs to the property. Enclosed is a copy of the notice we eent to the Linn's indicating the electricalr mechanical and plumbing repairs needed for the property to conform with Springfield Housing Code reguirements. I have marked thoee items which may require a permit, depending upon the method of repair that is selected. For example, the wood stove may be removed if an alternative aource of heat is provided in all habitable rooms, in which case a permit would be required for installation of the new heat source(s). AB an alternativerthe stove may continue to be ueed as the hsat eource if it is connected to an approved chimney and if the stove is located the proper distance from all combustibles. A wood stove permit and inspection approval ie required before the stove can be used. An electrical permit for Alteration or repair of two or more circuits would be appropriate for the electrical problems noted in the letter, the cost of which is would be $23.63. An electrical contractor can obtain the permit and handle all of the electrical repairs for the property. A plumbing permit will be required if the existing drains or water lines need to be replaced ae a part of the repair. Ms. Turring, I hope the above information adequately answers your questions, however, pleaae don't hesitate to call this office if further clarification is needed.
