The above-captioned case was originally scheduled for hearing on April 22, 2008 and decision in the matter was issued in file number 070310 on July 11, 2008.  The Applicant has returned requesting and additional period of time to submit a comprehensive plan of action to the Cranston Fire Marshal's office.  The grounds for the submission are outlined in a July 21, 2008 letter from the Applicants engineers.  The Applicants request for extension was scheduled for hearing on July 29, 2008 at 1:00 P.M.  At that time, Chairman Coutu, Vice Chairman Newbrook and Commissioners Preiss, Dias and Walker were present.  Commissioner Blackburn recused himself from considering this matter and left the hearing.  The fire service was represented by Assistant Deputy State Fire Marshal Glenn Bathgate and Deputy Chief Vincent Matromello of the Cranston Fire Marshals Office.  A motion was made by Commissioner Dias and seconded by Vice Chairman Newbrook to grant the Applicant relief as outlined herein.  The motion was unanimous.
