Public Speakers: Ben Kleinerman Vice Mayor Thaler said that most ofthe new condos already have rules and regulations within their own codes but many of them are not enforcing them, and on the west side many of the buildings were built before satellites and they don't have any codes to go by. He said as the buildings get older and as we get more and more satellites put up, we will find that we are going to have more leakage and cracking within the buildings if we don't establish these rules and regulations. Commissioner Goodman asked how much time are we going to give them to come into compliance, and City Manager Russo said there is a warning period, but at the beginning we will probably extend that to get the word out. Robert Solera, Assistant Administrator, Building and Code Enforcement & Licensing Dept., said that it is first placed in a newspaper to give at least 30-days notice, and a warning after that, which is 7 to 15 days after the notice. 4
