I especially like the spacing for the guardrail. I want to share it

We had a case in CT...North Haven I believe.....illegal 3rd floor apt conversion, no permits, no inspections, fire, fatality, Town got beat for millions because they knew about it and did nothing.... (assessor taxed them on 3 units....)If you know about it you CAN NOT ignore it....or maybe YOU can....
If you can identify that case for me I would be very interested in googling/reading the transcript, , , wondering how the Court determined that paperwork in the assessors office would/should be so directly identified by building department personnel.
 
I can't put my hands on it right now, but the woman from the AG's office gave us the case #.....I think the name was something like Ford vs North Haven......I believe they just treated the Town like a single entity, and said the Town knew....I will look for it and put up what I can....
