Sweet and Spicy: what's the buzz on honey infusions? | SaltWireThe developer who owns the former Bloomfield School site in the heart of north-end Halifax is appealing a fire inspector's order to get a structural integrity assessment of the vacant building.
Garnett’s accompanying letter to Banc president Alex Halef notes company directors can be fined up to $25,000, and that companies can be fined up to $50,000 for not complying with an order made under the Fire Safety Act. Those penalties can grow up to $150,000 and $250,000 respectively where there are aggravating circumstances.“The report shall include analysis of all structural systems of the building including the exterior façade,” the fire inspector wrote.
“In the event that the order is upheld on appeal, the deadline to comply with the order is unreasonable give the size of the property and the vagueness of what is required.” “It’s not right; this is a very prominent site in the neighbourhood that people have pinned a lot of hopes on and better care should be taken. I’m really surprised that the developer didn’t tear the building down right away because the building is a liability to them.”
