It makes my job so much easier when I get a chance to work with someone like yourself given this tough situation. A review of the site with my gas inspector and your contractor, Mr. Tetrault, has revealed several serious safety problems that must be addressed as soon as possible. Many of the following you are already aware of. 1. Means of egress: All the exterior rear means of egress are in disrepair. Some are worse than others, but all require major work. To begin with, most structural members are non-pressure treated lumber with plywood over them. This situation, when not continuously protected with paint (as these are)results in rot. I would suggest a more detailed exam for water rot be undertaken by your contractor to determine the extent of the repairs needed. At the very least, the second floor exterior exit system needs to be totally replaced. Please be aware of 780 CMR Section 800.2 which requires two means of egress be maintained during work. This means that all second floor people will need to be out of the building while the work is going on. I suggest you come up with a plan and let me know what it is before the permit is issued. 2. Heat: More than half of the units are without heat. New furnaces will have to be supplied and inspected under the Massachusetts Gas Code. 3. Hot Water: There is only one 40 gallon hot water heater for all 14 apartments. You will need to supply a hot water supply for each unit. Q941005B Ms Marshall October 4, 1994 Page 2 4. The service drop has been damaged by an apparent accident. This situation needs to be taken care of now. You will need to contact the Barnstable Housing Authority in the event people are displaced during construction. Mr. Tom Lynch, at 508-771-7222, will be the one to talk to. It should be noted that I have not seen the inside of any of the units. Given the exterior problems, I would like to see all units to check for fire safety and other problems before I am comfortable with any proposed course of action. Please make arrangements for me and the Hyannis Fire Department to go through each unit. Please let me know as soon as you formulate a plan that addresses all the above concerns. All will have to be addressed, as I told you. I am grateful that you are just as concerned as I am. Hopefully, we can clean up these violations soon. Sincerely, Ralph M.
