Please accept this Memorandum of ~ues[ ~or your action against'

Mr. Robert Gum~erus came into the Building Department on 11-19765 ~o
obtain an application for a Building Permit. ~e was aoco~anied by
another ,mq, introduced as Mr. Paul Jul in. I ~hen asked what rel&tions~
he had with Mr. Gumm~rus and he stated that he was a friend helping
I noted Mr. Julin was doing most of the inquiring. O~ 11-25-85 Mr.
came in ~o this office with all the paperwork to apply for a Building
Permit, si~ned by Mr. Gummerus. I asked him where Mr. Gu~aer~ was
he answered, "he is working. He works at Harris Corporation". I then ~sk~d
him, again, what relationship he had ~o Mr. Gumm~rus and he said he was
a friend helping him. I said it was O.K., but be sure Mr. G~4m~rus does
the contracting and paying of all the bills, for if I found a receipt ~or
a bill paid by someone else ~his could be evidence of someone else doing
~he contracting. He said he understood and he then proceeded ~o write
check and paid for the Pexlait wi~h a Company name on i~ of Julin Construc-
tion Co. any. See F~hibit "A". I then checked wi~h Mrs. NePal ~o see
he had a curren[ license. He does not have one.
I called Indian ~iver County Licensing on 12-2-85. I was informed
Mr. Paul 3ulin was registered as a lice~a~d electrician, but ~s not
dated.
On 11-26-85 I had called East Coast Trenching and they verified ~ha=
