13. Appeal of Matthew Eoulos to a Vacant Building Registrarion Norice and Fee for property at
635 Canton Street. (Continued from Sept. 1 for a report from the inspector)
The appellant did not appear.
Inspector Senty stated that Mr. Boulos had not provided the required written documentation from
his plumbing contractor. He noted that the city had mowed the grass and secured the property since
the last hearing.
Ms. Moermond stated that the appeal was not timely and the appellant had not met the requirements
despite being given every opportunity; therefore, she recommended denying the appeal.
On September 18, 2009, Inspectar Senty contacted Ms. Moermond indicating that he had received a
fax from Mr. Boulos indicating that he was providing proof that the work required for item #5 —
interior 2" floor — shower, had been done. What Mr. Boulos provided was the online permit
information from the plumbing work he had done. in duly 2007. He failed to provide current written
documentation from his plumbing contractor that the shower piping was done to code as indicated
in Inspector Cucnming orders on February 13, 2009. He said he talked to Mr. Boulos and told him
that Ms. Moermond was denying the appeal and Mr. Boulos requested the matter be set for a public
hearing before the Council.
