The members agreed that if the chimney was brought up to code, this issue would not have to be returned to the Board.

NEW BUSINESS: Mr. Schulz is gathering information on both Radon and C,F.C.'s (Chloro- flouro Carbons) both of which will have to be addressed by the City in the future. Mre Sanker advised that Honeywell will be giving courses on Radon and he would like them to give some seminars under the auspices of the State for the inspectors certification. Mr. Schulz stated that he has learned that it costs between $50.00 to $100.00 to have a thorough Radon test; and in most cases it comes from the sump pump which can be covered and vented.
