Bernard Perzan - 86-CC-7A
Mr. Turano asked the Board to turn to this next case involving electrical
violations and asked Mr. Fischer to explain the case to the Board. Mr.
Fischer stated the whole thing in a nutsell is that IvIr. Jones had sent a
letter on Nover 8th, 1985, infoming Mr. Perzan of the several violations,
Mr. Jones also asked Mr. Perzan to bring this into compliance to meet
current code requirements for industrial businesses, electrical service,
etc., and that this building was designed for storage and is not adequate
for apparent use of the building, and to return the building to its original
intent, and to please contact the Building Department. Mr. Fischer stated
Mr. Perzan was also given ten days to respond. Mr. Fischer also continued
that appearance wise, it looks as though- the end buildings have officess
and bathrooms in that area; the ones in the middle, 10 x 20 spaces with an
overhead door, appear to be storage facilities, and that in the interim
they had renters in there perfoming different types of businesses, or
whatever, and they were rented out. Mr. Fischer continued that there are about
three or four different meters on the back of the building servicing different
units, and the problem existing here now, which is the age of the building,
ten years, is that the tenants have destroyed some of the walls; that one
tenant took out one of the walls to make rrore space; the surflx>ard business
has flamnable material; that these kind of businesses need fire separations.
Mr. Fischer also stated he and Mr. Jones inspected the buildings several times
and talked with Mr. Perzan, trying to get this building into compliance so it
can be used as rental to people, because it is an industrial zone area and if
the business is brought up to minimal requirements it can be used in the
proper manner. He stated he left a list of corrections and numerous things
to be done in February and Mr. Fischer then read them to the Board. Mrs.
Ciccarello asked if this property had recently changed hands, and Mr. Fischer
stated they don It keep track of the sale of property but to his knowledge it
belongs to Mr. Perzan or his dad; he really doesn I t know.
The secretary then swore in Nr. Perzan who stated he had the business for seven
years, turned it over to another party who had it two years, and that he
didn I t know anything about what was going on inside; these people turned
it over to his son, who had it nine rronths, and it is in the process now,
to turn it over to him again. Mr. Perzan stated he will do everything that
needs to be done but needs a little time. The Board discussed this property
in depth and Mrs. Ciccarello then rroved that Mr. Jones,' within the next
week, reinspect this property and report his findings back to the Board by
their next meeting. The rrotion was seconded by Mrs. Cucanich. Motion
CARRIED 5-0.
Paul W. Rosmussen -' 86-CC-9
Mr. Turano asked if Mr. Rosmussen had appeared and Mr. DiLeva said he had
been here; his driver had started to carry him into the meeting as he is in
a wheel chair, and that he became very ill. I>tr. DiLeva stated Mr. Rossmussen
told him he would have everything cleared in ten days, and I>tr. DiLeva asked
