Some Meadville properties will avoid city's inspection program By Mary Spicer“I’ve talked to the college — and they look at those houses at least annually themselves,” Johnson said.
Nursing homes and similar structures were also inspected when they were built,” Hedrick explained. “They’re required to have annual fire safety inspections,” he said. “They get those. And when they do any upgrades, they’re required to get permits.” The federal government requires units owned by Meadville Housing Authority to be inspected. “They have their own inspectors — and federal inspectors occasionally come in,” Hedrick explained, noting that Meadville Fire Department inspectors don’t get involved unless there’s a complaint. Both municipal code and state law require institutional facilities such as nursing homes and hospitals to be inspected on a regular basis, Hedrick continued. “They’re also required to have monthly fire drills — and some of their employees are required to have fire safety training.” His department conducts both the drills and the training, he added.
