ON THE WATER
CITATION REQUEST
Name: David L Wright Address: 616 School Ave
145 Oak St
Berlin WI 54923
Problem/Violation of: 16-33A (9)a, failure to install deadbolt lcoks
on all living unit doors; 16-35A (1)c, failure to repair windows as to
open and close easily and stay open without props; 16-35A (6),
continued rental of dwelling units with uncorrected code violations.
Brief History Review: Orders were issued January 21, 2000
following a complaint from a tenant. This tenant was caring for
several babies and complained her windows were in poor condition,
allowing cold air to infiltrate and lowers sashes would not stay open
without props. She was fearful the children in her care could knock
out a prop and have the sash fall on them (See Photo). A number of
other violations were also ordered corrected at this time. A Final
Notice was issued Apri17, 2000 when reinspection revealed little
compliance. The owner responded with a copy of notice with
corrections made. Note items #1 & #2 are corrected per owner. An
inspection revealed no fire rating on rear door and no deadbolts on
upper living unit doors. A second Final Notice was issued July 14,
2000. Again I received a written response from the owner indicating
#1 & #2 had been corrected. On August 7, 2000 I made another
reinspection. This inspection revealed windows in kitchen still
presented a sash falling problem and required props. (See Photos)
and no deadbolt lock on the front living unit entry door. During
phone conversations with Mrs Wright I also indicated to her and
included in orders the roof was in poor condition and parking was
illegal in rear yard. Following my reinspection of August 7, 2000 I
had phone contact with Mrs Wright. She claimed a maintenance
person had reported everything was corrected. On August 17, 2000
I did a reinspection to determine if she had responded to our phone
conversation. The windows were still hazardous in kitchen and
hard to open in living room. There was still no deadbolt on front
door.
