SUBJECT
Appeal of certain plumbing matters
.APPEA1tANCE
John H. Cross, Peter F. Greiner
PROCEEDINGS
Mr. Cross explained that these were the Camelot, formerly Bastille, Apartments.,and
said there had been some finance pro�lems. Pir. Strub gave a history of the situatior.
and said some work had been done on a spot basis to keep the permits that had been
issued in force. He said that when the work was started the �ilding Department
allo��ed the use of plastic pipe but since the building had been shut down the State
gave an opinion that at least or.e type of plastic pipe conducts fire very readilS��
and will support combustion.� He continued that if they were to apply for a perrsit
now they wocild be required to/as netal pipe or isolate the plastic pipe and he said
the ABS plastic, which is the one being used by the applicant, will conduct a fire.
Mr. Greiner said there is no objection to i�rhat has been done to date lu t the ques�ion
is the 30 or 40 units which remain under construction. Mr. Cross said it would b�
tough to install metal pipe because of the cost which wou ld probably be close to
$10,000. Mr. Strub said the garage area is the one of main concern. M�. Tieso
asked if it would be possible to do the garage in metal and Mr. Cross said they
could deal with the inspector and see if it would be alright to use metal pipes in
the garage area and plastic for the upper floors. Mr. Strub said his main concern
is that there be a separation in the garage area and the apartment area. : .
ACTION
Mr. Wozniak suggestEd the applicant work wi�h the department and in the meantime
the appeal could be held in abeyance.

Gene Rosenblum gave a history of the property. Mr. Unruh introduced the Olsons and
showed the Board the earnest money contract for their inspection. rir. 01son said
the progerty wou ld be used for income property and the current use as a rooming
house for men would be maintained. Mr. Wozniak told Mr. Olson he should be aware
that if the waiver were granted and should rir. Olson desire to sell at s later riate
he would be faced with the same problem that he is facing now and if a �.=aiver e�:tensior
were not granted this would have an effect on the value of the property. Mr. Rase:�b�ura
implied the Board had assured him at the previous hearing on the property that if
the earnest money contract were presented and the buyers met the approva7_ of the Board
the waiver extension would be granted. Pir. Staffenson said the departmeni would request
the waiver extension not be granted and he said the previous resolution said the wni`�e�
was valid only for Mrs. Sulikowski. Mr. Wozniak said the Board sees no end if �t is to
