Re: Building Code violations:
Dear Mr. Kiley,
I received and investigated a complaint regarding your garage at your property. While going up the front stairs,
a board came off of your front stairs which I laid back into place. This garage and porch steps have been in the
same condition for at least two years and the garage even longer. The garage, as is , constitutes a" dangerous
and unsafe structure"under the building code and needs to be torn down or some serious repairs started
immediately. The stairs I will give you 30 days to have the front stairs repaired or replaced.
The code references are the State Building Code 780 CMR sections 101.2 through 101.5 for the front stairs and
section 116.1 through 116.3 for the garage. If you feel you are aggrieved by the section about the front stairs,
your Appeal is to the B.B.R.S in Boston. There is no Appeal from the unsafe structure section.
Please contact me directly if you have any questions.
