The City Manager replied that it is the policy of the Inspection Department to check with the Better Business Bureau concerning new license applications hut that there have been so many new applications for licenses in the past month that he couldn't guarantee that the Inspection Department had been able to check a11 of them. Councilman Izirkham stated that he believes the City should check the applications for licenses with the Better Business Bureau and with other Cities where these firms are licensed before granting licenses. Mayor Nee suggested that the Council deny the application of the Romens Construction Company for a license, since the Romens Construction Company has not cooperated with the Building Inspector and has not followed their orders as well as would be expected of a construction company. He suggested that the Council issue licenses for renewal applications, first and then consider the new license applications Motion by Sheridan to approve the following licenses for electrical contractors ELECTRICAL � Bredde, Incorporated 2211 Broadway N.E.
