Re : Final inspections for residence located at
E, 14818 20th, E. 14911 21st and E, 14712 20th
Our job order es 127 , 129 and 130
Dear Mr . Gorst :
In keeping with our telephone conversation of August 11 , 1980
I am setting forth certain conditions which will eliminate any
need for an additional final inspection of the property referenced
above.
On building permit #' s N-0236, N-0287 and M-8388 all work
was completed and a request for final inspection was made by
Richard E. Reeves, then owner and general contractor on these
properties . According to Mr . Reeves recollection final inspections
were made by Larry Murray. Mr. Murray signed off on the final
inspections according to the records of Mr. Reeves .
Please include this letter in your file so that a further
inspection and inquire regarding the property set forth herein
will be completed. If you should have any further questions
please feel free to contact me .
Sincerely you
DONALD A. O'NEILL

Mr. Donald A. O'Neill •
Attorney at Law

Spokane, WA 99206
Dear Mr. O'Neill:
This letter is in response to your letter dated July 21, 1980 regarding the
construction of residences at E. 14818 - 20th Avenue, E. 14911 - 21st Avenue
and E. 14712 - 20th Avenue.
Our records indicate that no inspections were called for or conducted for
E. 14712 - 20th Avenue - one inspection for framing and rough-in on
September 25, 1978 at E. 14818 - 20th Avenue and one inspection for framing
and rough-in on October 5, 1978 at E. 14911 - 21st Avenue.
The Spokane County Building Codes Department is mandated by State Law
RCW 19.27.020 to enforce regulations governing construction of buildings and
structures to insure the health and life safety of the public. The Uniform
Building Code as referred to under ROW 19.27.020 outlines the minimum re-
quired inspections which are as follows:
Foundation Inspection
Framing Inspection
Lath and/or Wallboard Inspection
Final Inspection
In summary, as our records do not indicate that the required inspections were
conducted and Mr. Larry Murry to whom you refer to is no longer employed with
this department, I would like to ask that Mr. Reeves of R & R Construction
contact this office so that an equitable solution can be made.

RE: Final inspections for residences located at E. 14818 20th. and E. 14911 21st. Ave.
Dear Sirs:
Our district inspector reports that Building permits, Nos. N-0236 and N-0287
for the construction of new residences have expired.
County Code states: "The building or work authorized by a permit shall be completed
within one year of the expiration date of the original permit unless a longer period of
construction time is requested in writing and written approval granting the extended time
limit is given by the building official. Permits that expire before the structure is
completed may be renewed for one-half the original fee, PROVIDED, that application is
made on or before the expiration date of the original permit.” Therefore, your permits
are no longer valid.
You are hereby advised that if you have not made arrangements for final inspections
or if you have not renewed your permits within 10 working days of the date of this letter
this matter will be referred to our statuatory legal counsel for further action against
you.
Should you have any questions, please contact the undersigned building inspector at
456-3675, between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m. , weekdays.
