Mrs. Bert Turner, Clerk
Town -of Queensbury
388 Ridge St. , -
Glens Falls, N.Y..
Dear Mrs. Turner Policy No. 26610
Garage and Storage Building
Town of Queensbury
Y S/S Aviation Road
We wish to advise you at this time that we have made another inspection
of -the captioned property and find the housekeeping in both the front
and rear buildings is very poor.
There is a large accumulation of rubbish both inside and outside of the
buildings involved. In the front building3j., there is a large accumulation
of oily rags and papers in one corner of the building and right along-
side this pile of rags is a large vat containing kerosene that is being
used to soak and wash parts. Also contained in this building is a 55
gallon drum of kerosene that was located in the front portion of the
G front building and appeared to be leaking on the floor.
It was noted that both buildings contained coal burning stoves for heat
but there were "no metal containers for the removal of hot ashes. In
fact, at the time of our inspection, the ashes were piled on the floor
' in front of the stove. The back building contained a five gallon can
of gasoline (partly filled) and numerous other cars of lubricants and
oils of various descriptions. This building also shows a lack of main-
tenance and is in very poor condition.
We would appreciate it very much if you would pass this information on
to-the ;proper authorities to see that the necessary steps are taken to
improve the housekeeping conditions in this property.
There doesn't appear to have been any improvements made since our last
inspection of March 27, 1953, and wish to advise you at this time that
another inspection will be made on May 18th and if there have been no
material changes made in the condition of the property, we will have to
ask for the cancellation of our policies.
Very truly yours, .
(Signed) Robert M.. Hess
