Title
Appeal of Juliann Morris to a Notice of Condemnation as Unfit for Human Habitation and Order to Vacate at 633 PALACE AVENUE. (Also see RLH VO 11-78)
Purpose of Appeal
The furnace was not permitted or installed by licensed persons. Owner nearly killed us. We need to secure contractor. The emergency deficiency regarding the furnace unit is completely justified, but I ask that we have more time to secure a licensed contractor to perform the work in a timeframe that is sufficient to meet safety needs and city code. The unit is not in operation now, nor will it be until repaired and inspected. Weather conditions will permit non-use of furnace. Currently an order for protection from owner is being sought as well.
Date of Order(s)
September 22, 2011
