	Dear GOULD SPENCER ,
	                                                              STOP WORK ORDER
	
	An evaluation of the above-referenced property on                     revealed that building construction 	08/17/2007
	was being conducted  without benefit of a valid building permit as required  by Section 105.1 of the 
	2003 International Building Code and the  2003 International Residential Code of the City of 
	Portland. 
	
	Appropriate permitting has not been issued for the property listed above, therefore all construction 
	activity at that property must STOP immediately. This is a STOP WORK ORDER pursuant to 
	Section 114. of  2003 International Building Code and the 2003 International Residential Code of the 
	City of Portland. 
	
	You may resume construction activity only after issuance of the appropriate building permit and the 
	subsequent lifting of this order. Building Permit Applications are available in this office, Room 315 at
	 Portland City Hall, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. weekdays except holidays.
	
	Failure to comply will result in this office referring the matter to the City of Portland Corporation 
	Counsel for legal action and possible civil penalties, as provided for in Section 1-15 of the Code and 
	in Title 30-A of M.R.S.A. Section 4452. This constitutes an appealable decision pursuant to 
	Section112 of the City of Portland Building Code.
	
	If you wish to discuss this matter, or you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
	
	Sincerely,
