RE: NELSON'S TIRE WAREHOUSE
Springfield, Oregon
Dear Loren:
This letter will confirm my telephone conversation with you on June
5,1981, concerning the captioned project.
I expressed concern that Metal Clad Builders had phoned me earlier
in the week requesting that I send two copies of my engineered plans
to the Springfield building department. Copies of these drawings
were first subini tted in June 1980. I am told that the permi twas
not picked up by Sherman Ruttencutter, the owner, and thus the orig-
inal drawings were destroyed.
I learned from my conversation with Metal Clad Builders that they
have obtained the engineering services of George Griffin to redesign
the building utilizing wood frame construction and metal siding. I
further learned from this conversation that the building department
had advised Mr: Ruttencutter that my drawings would be required in
as much as the drawings bearing the engineering stamp of George
Griffin were incomplete. I object to the use of my drawings under
these conditions since two distinct types of construction are re-
presented by each design which bear different engineering stamps.
As you indicated, the contractor or the owner may attempt to re-
submit drawings to your department which would include part or all
of my original drawings which might be reproduced through use of
autopositives. I understand that you will advise Mr. Ruttencutter
should this happen that your department can .riot"accept drawings..
under these conditions.
