Northampton, Massachusetts 01060 ASSOCIATES Richard E.Katsanos Ann Lawrence Knox Re: Craig Porter Residence Northampton, Massachusetts Dear Bruce: This letter is to inform you that Craig Porter has completed renovations to his home under my supervision, so that the residence will now be in conformance with the Massachusetts Building Code. The following work was performed to bring the building into code conformance: 1. The roof truss structural system was rebuilt and strengthened to allow for a 40-pound snow live load. 2. Additional attic insulation was added to bring the ceiling /attic insulation up to code standards. 3. A ridge vent was added to bring the building up to code standards. 4. New roof shingles were installed on the roof using a low slope application to meet industry standards. At this point, I feel that all the required corrective work has been completed to bring the building into conformance with the Massachusetts Building Code. Therefore, I would appreciate it if you could issue a Certificate of Occupancy so that Craig could legally occupy his home.
