RE: New Midas Muffler Shop
360 South Koeller Avenue
Oshkosh, Wisconsin
Dear Mr. Reimer:
Currently, the above referenced Midas Shop is operating under a
temporary occupancy permit. Per our telephone conversation of
last week, you will extend the expiration date on the permit until
the state responds on the data Midas'Racking Co., submitted for
review.
As you understand, the approval Midas is waiting for is for the
installation of a racking system with integral staircase to the
mezzanine level above the waiting area in the shop. There had
been some question in the states' eyes whether or not this rack-
ing /staircase system was designed for proper loading capacities
and provided adeauate exit from the mezzanine.
This system is used extensively throughout the United States in
most Midas facilities. The loading capacity of this system and
it's use as a means of exit has never been questioned before.
The racking is actually supporting very light loads (muffler
boxes) and the staircase provided is more than adequate in width
and strength.
Upon receipt of the state's decision concerning this matter, I
will forward it to your attention. I appreciate your understand-
ing and assistance in this matter very much.
Yours t ,
A ffir
