Dear Mr. Kuehn:
On December 6, 1985, I inspected portions of your
property known as 1413 Monroe Street following a com-
plaint of minimum "violations therein.
During the inspection, I noted the following viola-
tions of the Oshkosh Minimum Housing Code which shall be
corrected:
1. The sump pump is connected directly to the City
sanitary sewer system. The sump pump shall be disconnected
from the sewer system and properly plumbed to the exterior
of the dwelling. (Referred to Plumber Inspector)
2. There is a condition of structural failure of
the North, South and West basement foundation walls. The
walls are heaving inward creating cracks up to 3 inch in
size which allows the infiltration of rain and ground water.
(Referred to Residential Building Inspector for followup)
3. The water heater vent connection to the furnace
flue is improper. This connection shall be made secure
and air tight.
4. The water heater has an improperly installed re-
lief valve. This valve shall be repaired or replaced by
a licensed plumber. (Referred to Plumbing Inspector)
5. Smoke detectors are required in the dwelling and
shall be installed at the top of the rear stairwell and one
in each sleeping room as the two sleeping rooms are divided
by the kitchen.
6. The rear entry door is in very poor condition
with a delaminating surface. This door shall be repaired
or replaced.
It will be your responsibility, as owner, to contact
the Code Enforcement Office to ascertain whether or not
permits are required to correct the noted violations.
On January 13, 1985. I will reinspect the property to
CITY HALL • 215 CHURCH AVENUE • P. 0. BOX 1130 • OSHKOSH, WISCONSIN 54902
