[200William-EC] MARQUIS - NORTH FACING APARTMENTS

Hi George,
  Let me provide a more considered response now that I have thought 
about it a bit.  Firstly I would like to declare a conflict of interest 
in that my property is one of the effected apartments and I believe that 
a sign of this nature will directly effect the resale value of my 
apartment. Through obstruction of the view and esthetics with it's 
positioning. Secondly it brings to the attention of any perspective 
buyers that there is something not quite normal with our apartment. That 
being the 10,000L of ULP under the ramp in the basement.

Also George please dont think this is directed at you. We appreciate you 
are getting all the facts together for us and understand your on the clock.


Can you please provide the relevant legislation/act/decree that 
stipulates this sign.
Can you also give us an idea of the ramifications of not complying . Im 
guessing we will not get a fire compliance certificate and will be fined 
(that is the owners corp will be fined)
Is there any sort of appeal process or area where special consideration 
can be given.
Can we ask the building architect/engineer for other options that comply 
with the legislation/act/decree

Just to let you know my kitchen does not back on to this door. I have 
two doors one is in the middle of the lounge room the other is in a 
bedroom. The bedroom door does not have a single segment larger then 
700mm so a 730mm sign simply would not fit.  The longe one has a curtain 
pelmet and could not be seen anyway at the top.

Matt.
