Fatal blazes highlight problems with fire inspection in Connecticut cities
Manage episode 341418751 series 2609262
Connecticut is home to tens of thousands of three-unit dwellings, many of which are three-story homes in cities. The state mandates they be inspected for fire safety each year, but chronic understaffing at fire marshals' offices means some of the oldest and potentially most dangerous houses are not getting timely inspections.
Two fatal blazes in Waterbury this year highlighted the problem. CT Mirror's investigative reporter Dave Altimari joined host Ebong Udoma to explain what he found when he examined inspection records. You can read his story, written with Andrew Brown and Katy Golvala, here.
