| | W.P.B. PERMIT: 18010531 |
| | REVIEW #3: NOVEMBER 30, 2018 |
| | |
| | NO RESPONSE SHEET WAS PROVIDED AND I CAN?T SEE THAT |
| | COMMENTS HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED. |
| | THE BASIC INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE ESTABLISHED SO THAT |
| | COMMENTS CAN BE LOOKED AT WITH DESIGN CRITERIA IN MIND. |
| | THERE ARE TWO OCCUPANCY GROUPS HERE (BUSINESS AND |
| | STORAGE). THE AMOUNT OF AREA OF EACH NEEDS TO BE SHOWN |
| | SO THE AMOUNT OF OCCUPANTS CAN BE DETERMINED. |
| | THE WORK AFFECTS EGREES AND THE LIFE SAFTEY PLAN NOW |
| | SHOWS NOTHING ABOUT DISTANCE, OCCUPANT LOAD OR COMMON |
| | PATH OF TRAVEL. |
| | |
| | I SUGGEST THAT AN E-MAIL IS SENT TO ME TO REQUEST A |
| | MEETING WITH BUILDING REVIEW SO THAT DIRECTION IS |
| | PROVIDED ON WHAT TO SHOW ON PLANS. IF A MEETING IS NOT |
| | FEASABLE PLEASE CALL ME TO DISCUSS THE COMMENTS VIA |
| | PHONE AND E-MAIL. |
