Title
Appeal of Kristina Lepley to a Fire Certificate of Occupancy Revocation and Order to Vacate at 2245 HILLSDALE AVENUE and 2247 HILLSDALE AVENUE.
Date/Time of 1st LH: Tuesday, April 14, 2020; 10:00 a.m.
Purpose of Appeal: I have requested three fire inspections rescheduled, as tenants requested that no one is brought into their units during the stay at home order as to avoid unnecessary person to person contact. Notice was given with more than 24 hours notice (see attached). The inspector, James Thomas, showed up all three days and was not given permission to enter the units as tenants didn't want anyone in their homes during the stay at home order.
Date of Order(s) Under Appeal: March 30, 2020
Inspector/Key Staff: James Thomas
Legislative Hearing Staff Comments: $10 money order refund mailed to appellant on 4/20/20 (appeal fee overpaid) along with receipt.
