VITOUSEK: That's something we'll probably have to hear from the applicant after their <br /> presentation. <br /> DEFRANCO: All right. Thank you. <br /> VITOUSEK: Are there any questions for the county? Okay, I've got a couple of questions. The <br /> building itself, from the material it indicates that it has a building permit, but there have been no <br /> inspections. Is that correct? <br /> ANDREWS: Yeah, I can address that, Chair Vitousek. Yes, it has a building permit that was <br /> issued, and it was issued to be an ag warehouse with no electrical or plumbing, and the final <br /> inspection has not been completed. <br /> VITOUSEK: Have any of the inspections been completed? <br /> ANDREWS: It's my understanding that the foundation inspection was final, or was approved, <br /> but that further inspections have not been. <br /> VITOUSEK: There has been no further inspections. Okay, and then <br /> ANDREWS: And, and just, sorry,just to clarify further a little bit more. Of course, the current <br /> use still is going to require yet another building permit, so it will all have to be redone. So it <br /> would, it would require what's called a change of use building permit, so they would have to <br /> redo everything to current code, if it doesn't already meet current code, and the whole series of <br /> the inspections would happen again. <br /> VITOUSEK: Okay, so, basically, we need a whole new permit for the building, including the <br /> portion that's already been permitted, which will require bringing everything up to code <br /> because I'm assuming they've got electrical at this point, if they are having classes in there that <br /> will, everything will have to be brought into code, they will have to after the fact permit all the <br /> stuff that they've done in there. And then, and they have to get a final inspection in order to get <br /> a certificate of occupancy. Is that right? <br /> ANDREWS: Correct, that's right. <br /> VITOUSEK: And, does the county allow commercial use of a building prior to certificate of <br /> occupancy? <br /> ANDREWS: That is typically not something that I've seen happen, but it, it's going to be up to <br /> the discretion of the county, of the permitting agency, which will be DPW. <br /> VITOUSEK: So it's DPW's decision to grant a certificate of occupancy, right? <br /> ANDREWS: That's right. <br /> 8 <br /> EXHIBIT B <br />
