ONTARIO Morris Township Council has decided to get tough with land­ owners within its boundaries who begin erecting or demolishing any structure on their properties without having an approved build­ ing permit in their possession. Chief Building Inspector Leo Sanders of RR 4, Brussels, report­ ed at the August 23 session of council that he has had an ongoing problem with landowners in the township proceeding with con­ struction prior to the issuance of an authorized building permit. And in at least one case, he said, he had had to issue a stop work order to a landowner who had erected a building without even applying for a building permit or septic tank permit. After a lengthy discussion of the problem, council passed a motion building permit in Morris Twp. is that a penalty of four times the price of the building permit be imposed on any Morris Twp. landowner who begins construc­ tion of a building permit; the maximum penalty for such an offense, as set out in the Ontario Building Code, is $2,000. Morris Twp. passed a building by-law in accordance with the Ontario Building Code in April, 1987, appointing Mr. Sanders as chief building official at that time. Prior to that date, no standards were in effect within the munici­ pality. Building permits are required in ordertoconstruct, enlarge, install, repair, renovate or demolish any building or structure in any community having a building by-law in place. The fee for a based on the total cost of the structure, including all labour and materials, at the sum of $25 for the first $1,000 of value, plus $2 per $ 1.000 in value thereafter. Demoli­ tion permits are available at $100, with $90 of this refundable once the demolition site has been restored. A building or demolition permit must be displayed in a prominent place at any worksite, and inspec­ tion by the building inspector may take place at any of several stages of the project, from the commence­ ment of the construction to the final grading of the site following completion.

Nobody in their right mind would keep a life-threatening appliance in their home. Yet, thousands of people have propane refrigerators that can produce deadly amounts of carbon monoxide if they’re not properly vented and cleaned. Every year in Ontario an average of three fatalities result from the use of unserviced propane refrigerators. Several more people require hospitalization for carbon monoxide poisoning. To eliminate the risk, remove your propane refrigerator to an outdoor shelter or buy a new refrigerator, which is now required to be vented outdoors, like those used in recreational vehicles and mobile homes. We also advise you to have the refrigerator cleaned and serviced regularly, especially before start up and every time it’s moved. That way, rust, scale, insects or anything that’s blocking the combustion system will be removed. For answers to your questions or to obtain a do-it-yourself booklet on servicing, call the Fuels Safety Branch at (416) 234-6046, or write.
