re: 6-8 Strong Ave 32A-154
Dear Mr. Perman,
I inspected your building at 6-8 Strong Ave. in Northampton today.
We issued a building on July 1, 2015. The permit was for new roof, wall and floor framing. It
appears that work has been completed.
There has been a significant amount of additional work completed. No other permit has been
issued. That work was done contrary to the provisions of the Massachusetts State Building Code, 780 CMR. In accordance with 780 CMR Chapter 1, section 115, I have issued and posted a stop work order effective today. Work on this property cannot resume until we issue another building permit. There will
be an additional $50.00 fee to remove the stop work order in accordance with the City of Northampton ordinances Chapter 174, section 5
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. You can reach me at (413) 587-1240 or by email at lhasbrouck@northamptonma.gov.
Respectfully,
Louis Hasbrouck
Building Commissioner City of Northampton
