Dear Commission0r Kirchoff:
I am writing regardir:g a fire irspection report (ettached) I;ated May 7 I 1979.
The inspectors have ordered me to make changes that I feel are unnecessary
for the safety of my employees and/or customers but ',lould jeopardize the protection
of my merchandise.
Since we are in a rural area, there have been several attempted burglaries.
However, with one exception, thesC' attempts have been unsuccessful because of our
doors veiny securely locked. In one CLlse <1 burglar broke throuqh oIJr wall ,111<1
would have been able to "clean \1S ouL" if he could have op(~n('d a door. For't.IIII.)l..l y,
the bur<j1ar W2.fi only ublc La lclke some small items throurJh th(~ ('peninq he had rndcle
in the wa.ll.
All <3001'5 cl rc unlocked dur il1fJ bib i n('~>s hours for ecl~;Y ar:ccss. Conscqur~n 1'1 y,
1 n,qlw~,;l u vdridllce to alJ.ow rr1(~ to ke(~p cxi.~;lin'l J0c'ks.
I also rc:qt.l~st a variance concerni.ng manuol fire alarrns at each exit in our
- _..:.---
store and lighted exit sIgns in our warehouses.
I am sending drawings of our store und warehouses so that you can see how
impractical the'Sc re'1:uirements are: Cl1stom(~rs do not enter our warehouse and
employees always hLlve the overheao doors open when they enter the warehouses.
We are willing to meet the ot:her requirements as listed,
