In the attached revision for Section 5, bxterior Finishe, every effort has been made in various attempts at rephrasing et6 a ction0sW make it clear that its intent in not to enable the Health Department to pass judgement on the aesthetic appasronnes of a dwelling, but rather to enable us to tome action In situations where the paint or aiding has been so completely neglected that its lack is resulting in a viaible process of decay or deterioration of the wood and permits And, rain and cold weather to pass through to the inner walla and units. It is evident of course, that correction of these conditions will result in an improved appearance a too structure but this is not now, the prime intent of the section. It goes without saying that there exists structures which have not been allowed to go nearly as far as the terms of this section protide for, but are real eyesores in car City. Me original language for the action in question would have allowed more latitude in dealing with these but we shall be grateful if we can be empowered merely to deal with the very worst a them.
