Payor and Members of the Council:
For the protection of my property against fire and
for the purpose of securing healthful, safe and sanitary
conditions on my premises, I am asking that the Council
relax the requirements set forth in the ]wilding Code in
connection with the construction of fence.
The Code does not appear to give any consideration
for a person whose lot level is lower than that of the
adjoining property.
Because my property on 355 Cleveland Avenue Yorth
is lower at the back than that of the adjoining property,
it works a special hardship.on me as will be shown.
Recause the Fire Department is aware -of the hazarde
ous conditio -a which presents itself, is vitally concerned,
and has reported the matter, I know that Mr. Peterson
recognizes the precarious position in ti °which I find myself,
but I would like a chance to explain to the rest of you
why I find it necessary to take of the Council's valuable',
time for a matter which is personal.
Since this need for a fence has long been urgent,
I trust the Council will give it the utmost attention.

Sincerely,
i
Gertrude Reinicke
