Our story Thursday night detailing the fire code violations at the state school for the visually impaired possibly could have used a "timeline" of recent events. Here's how the last two weeks played out; we visited the school on Tuesday, April 22, to document the problems with the windows. Three days later, on Friday April 25, the State's Fire Marshall conducted another inspection and confirmed that the windows were indeed in violation of life safety codes. And four days later -- a week after our own visit -- the Governor's office told us that the dollars had been found for the window repairs- $330,000.
