Congratulations, Dr. Sergeant Major Richard Erickson (ret.) you now have a wholesale distribution site in Paducah, Kentucky! Yay, Sergeant Majors Elite! Cheers!! Paducah Distilled Spirits 🎉🇺🇸🥃🥃🎈🎉🎈🎉
At a Certificate of Occupancy (CO) Celebration yesterday, Paducah Fire Chief Steve Kyle presented Richard Erickson with a framed CO for his business at 219 North 4th Street. In addition to focusing his time on Norsemen Ops, a wholesale sales and distribution site for various liquors and spirits, he works with veterans through the organization, Save Our Vet, which provides financial help to veterans in need. We thank Erickson for his dedication to veterans and celebrate the addition of Norsemen Ops to downtown Paducah. Pictured from left to right are Deputy Electrical Inspector Vaugh Hugen, Chief Kyle, Erickson, and Paducah Business Development Specialist Kathryn Byers.
Why celebrate a CO? A Certificate of Occupancy (CO) is issued by the Paducah Fire Department after a building has been constructed or significantly renovated. This Certificate is one of the final and exciting steps in opening a building, something that we want to celebrate with the various private businesses and organizations that are investing in their property around the city. The Certificate certifies that the work done complies with building codes and the building is suitable for occupancy.
