The city of Winston has a new
recorder.
He is Henry J. Kleve, a Winston
businessman. He replaces Ray Har
rison who resigned Tuesday eve
ning at the regular meeting of the
city council.

effective Aug. 8, according to

the owner files an application by
the end of September. The con
struction will be exempt from con
forming, but the builder or owner
must formally tile the permit. ao
plication. After September, all
construction will come under pro
visions of the law.
Coast Cad Used
The overall guide In Douglas
County will be the uniform build
ing code of Ihe Pacific Coast
Building Officials Conference. The
code, widelv used throughout the
West, was first published in 1927.
Constant revision keeps it up to
date.
The primary purpose of the
rode is to furnish in one book
the fundamental requirements ne
cessary lo enable a county (or
citv) buildin official to provide
building regulations in accordance
with modern building methods in
order to assure public health
safety and welfare.
Boniol said builders and others
should feel free to droo bv his
office or call (he office in reard
to questions. He has the latest
code books.
Valuations Prottcttd
The main advantage of his new
deoartment. Boniols said, is that
building valuations can be uoheld.
The county has been a sore spot to
financing organizations because of
lck nf protection asainst Ihe tvw
nf adjoining building which might
be constructed.
Besides protection to contractors
and subdivides, Boniols noted
that house buvers can now be as
sured of good construction, with
nlumbing, heating, wiring, etc., up
to par.
The work of his office will also
go far toward clearing up the
"blight" areas of the county, the
inspector believes. Although t h e
law is not retroactive, further con
struction of deficient buildings can
be prevented.
