Mr. Renahan informed Mr. Jason that no plumbing permit or electrical permit was applied for or issued. The Board has instructed Sylvia to listen to the meeting tape of January 7, 2004 to find out if there was any mention of an irrigation spigot. After this has been researched, an order letter will be issued to remove all water from the building and to
remove any underground water line to its source.
