Title
Appeal of Laurie Reis, on behalf of Knox Presbyterian Church, to a Fire Inspection Correction Notice at 1536 MINNEHAHA AVENUE WEST.
Purpose of Appeal
We would like to appeal the need to correct Deficiencies 1,7,8 and 17 on the grounds that they would be extremely expensive for our small congregation and have not been brought to our attention in the past.
The style of our building means that the day care center can use windows at ground level for escape in emergencies and all stairways except those in the sub-basement have windows. The day care center is not used at night.
There is nothing stored in the attic that was sited as needing an approved access cover.
