1621 Prentice Street building permit issued for residential alteration

Owner David L. Fortney has an issued residential alteration permit for fire repairs at 1621 Prentice St, estimated at $20,000 and contingent on a field inspection. The scope: gutted to the studs, replace damaged studs, reframe the roof and install drywall throughout with cosmetic updates like new fixtures, cabinets and paint — all within the existing footprint with no changes to emergency egress; separate permits will be required for electrical, HVAC and plumbing, and work within 3 feet of the property line must meet a one-hour fire rating under the 2018 KRC.
