This office sent a violation letter back on October 12, 2001 to unit#32 at 15 Lynde Street. We received no reply. Basically, the condo unit has been torn apart without any building permits being issued. The unit has been like this since 2001. The removal of flooring and wall plaster presents a serious risk of the spread of fire throughout a building of this design. Violations are the following Massachusetts State Building Code 780 CMR, Section 110 - Building Permit Required 110.7 —Construction Documents 113.2 —Compliance with Building Code Additionally, permits are required for plumbing, electrical and fire departments. You are directed to secure the necessary permits and to begin repair within 30 days upon receipt of this notice. If you feel you are aggrieved by this order, your appeal is to the Board of Building Regulations and Standards in Boston. Additionally, under Section 115.2 of the State Building Code, you are required to arrange an inspection of the unit as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please contact me directly. _ Sincerely, Thomas St. Pierre Building Commissioner Citp of balem, Aaaaehuoettz VOW Propertp Mepartment 3guilbing Mepartment One Salem Orem (978) 745.9595 txt. 380 Peter Strout Director of Public Property Inspector of Buildings Zoning Enforcement Officer October 12, 2001 Diana Barek 15 Lynde Street Salem,Ma. 01970 RE: 15 Lynde St. Apt. 32 Salem, Ma.

(State Building Code Section 109.1 .1 DEFINITION OF HOMEOWNER: Person(s) who owns a parcel of land on which he/she resides or intends to re- side, on which there is, or is intended to be, a one to six family dwelling, attached or detached structures accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A person who constructs more than one home in a two-year period shall not be considered a homeowner. Such "homeowner" shall submit to the Building Official , on a form acceptable to the Building Official , that he/she shall be responsible for all such work performed under the building permit. Section 109.1 .1 The undersigned "homeowner" assumes responsibility for compliance with the State Building code and other applicable codes, by-laws, rules and regulations. The undersigned "homeowner" certifies that he/she understands the City of Salem Building Department minimum inspection procedures and requirements and that he/she willcomply with said procedures and requirements. HOMEOWNER'S SIGNATURE UQ(11I{Q lX v <LQ� YI APPROVAL OF BUILDING OFFICIAL NOTE: Three family dwellings 35,000 cubic feet, or larger, will be required to comply with State Building Code Section 127.0, Construction Control . HOME OWNER' S EXEMPTION The Code states that: "Any Home Owner performing work for which a building permit is required shall be exempt from the provisions of this section (Section 109.1 .1 - Licensing of Construction Supervisors) ; provided that is a Home Owner engages a person(s) for hire to do such work, that such Home Owner shall act as supervisor." Many Home Owners who use this exemption are unaware that they are assuming the responsibilities of a supervisor (see Appendix Q, Rules and Regulations for Licensing Construction Supervisors , Section 2.15) . This lack of aware- ness often results in serious problems , particularly when the Home Owner hires unlicensed persons. In this case your Board cannot proceed against the unlicensed person as it would with licensed Supervisor. The Home Owner acting as supervisor is ultimately responsible. To ensure that the Home Owner is fully aware of his/her responsibilities, many communities require, as part of the permit application, that the Home Owner certify that he/she understands the responsibilities of a supervisor. On the last page of this issue is a form currently used by several towns. You may care to amend and adopt such a form/certification for use in your community. oqww Tito of Ohl= massor4usEtts Ilublic Jlrapertg i9epartment Nuilbing i9epartment (One dalem Okeen 500-145-9595 Ext. 300 Leo E.
