RE General Contractor's Registration in Blair, Nebraska
Dear Ms Atkinson,
CITY or BLAP
On March 7, 2005, the City of Blair Licensing Board met to consider revocation
of your contractor's registration within the jurisdiction of Blair. This revocation is a
direct result of your failure to comply with the requirements of the City's building code
on building permits #11150 (Andy Harris) and #11371 (Della Miller).
Both of these roof inspections failed and to date, we have not been contacted by
your company to confirm you have repaired these roofs to meet the requirements of the
2003 International Building Code as enforced by the City of Blair.
Please plan to attend the next Licensing Board meeting on Monday, April 4, 2005
to show just cause as to why your registration with the City of Blair should not be
revoked. If no response is received from you on or before this date, your registration will
be revoked and you will no longer be allowed to work in the City of Blair's jurisdiction.
Sincerely,
Brenda Wheeler
City Clerk
