APPEARAIVCE : A. Bucklev
SUBJECT. AppEllant ts requesting a variance on the requiremeni of
having to replace defective hot water boilers . Letter dat.ed
March 15. 1989.
PROCEEUINGS: Mr . Buckiey feels that t.he furnaces are tunctionai .
HE had ar� estimais to have two new ones put in and the cost was
$5400. 0� not including piping and �himney which would make the
cost considerably higher.
Dick Lippert, from Public Health stated that he had discussed
this with Mr. Votel before the meeting and Mr. Votel stated that
even though they could be repaired, the furnaces probably would
not meet the Minnesota State Energy Code. Mr. Votel would be
wi1ling to accept adequate repair of the two furnaces , keeping
in mind, that they probably can't be repaired to the quality that
they need to be. The prudent thing to do would probably replace
the two boilers. Mr. Lippert stated that at this time there would
be no problem on giving Mr. Buckley time until the new heating
season to do the necessary repairs.
Bill Tilton asked Mr. Lippert what was wrong with the furnaces?
Mr. Lippert stated that when Mr. Votel , the inspector was in the
building there were flames blowing out of the charge doors ,
like a blast furnace. Mr. Votel feels, its not just minor repairs,
he feeis the furnace is near being shot. Extremely hazardous .
