| | MASSERO WAS NOT PROVIDED AS REQUESTED.THE OWNER IS TO |
| | SIGN A COMMITMENT REGARDING IMPACT PROTECTION; THIS HAS |

| | |
| | PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PLAN MAY BE SUBMITTED VIA EMAIL |
| | FOR PRELIMINARY REVIEW, SEPARATELY FROM THE PLAN REVIEW |
| | PROCESS. |
| | |
| | REGARDING THE PLAN SUBMITTED, PLEASE ADDRESS THE |
| | FOLLOWING: |
| | |
| | A.WHERE SPECIFICALLY WILL THE SHUTTERS BE STORED? |
| | WILL THEY BE STORED VERTICALLY OR STACKED ON THE |
| | GROUND?IF STORED VERTICALLY, METHOD OF SECURING THE |
| | SHUTTERS (TO PREVENT THEM FROM FALLING AND INJURING |
| | SOMEONE) WILL BE REQUIRED.IF STORED HORIZONTALLY, A |
| | FLOOR PLAN SHOWING THE LOCATION AND ADEQUATE FLOOR |
| | SPACE WILL BE REQUIRED.THE FLOOR PLAN ON A2.0 DOES |
| | NOT GIVE ANY DIMENSIONS FOR WHAT IS SHOWN AS THE |
| | HURRICANE SHUTTER STORAGE AREA. |
| | |
| | B.HOW WILL THE PANELS BE SECURED TO PREVENT THEFT? |
| | WHO HAS ACCESS TO THIS AREA?HOW WILL THE OWNER GET |
| | ACCESS TO THIS AREA, ESPECIALLY AS THIS APPEARS TO BE A |
| | DIFFERENT TENANT SPACE FROM THE LOCATION WHERE SOME OF |
| | THE PANELS WILL BE REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | C.ONLY ONE INDIVIDUAL IS SHOWN AS BEING RESPONSIBLE |
| | FOR THE SHUTTER INSTALLATION.WHAT WILL OWNER DO IN |
| | THE EVENT THAT THIS ONE INDIVIDUAL IS UNAVAILABLE |

| | |
| | PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THIS IS ONLY A PRELIMINARY |
| | REVIEW.ONCE COMPLETE INFORMATION IS ESTABLISHED, THE |
| | PLAN IS FORWARDED TO THE BUILDING OFFICIAL FOR REVIEW |
| | AND APPROVAL. |
| | |
| | ALSO NOTE THAT, DUE TO FBC1003.6, IMPACT DOORS WILL BE |
| | REQUIRED.NOTE THAT YOU ARE PROPOSING TO BLOCK THE |
| | ONLY EXIT FOR THE TENANT SPACE NOTED AS 522 S DIXIE HWY |
| | |
| | |
| | 7.SEE PREVIOUS LIST AND ATTACHED SAMPLE INSTALLATION |
| | SCHEDULE.THIS INFORMATION IS REQUIRED FOR HURRICANE |
| | SHUTTER PERMITS.IF REQUESTED, THIS CAN BE PROVIDED AS |
| | A SEPARATE HURRICANE SHUTTER PERMIT. |
| | |
| | 8.PREVIOUS LIST INDICATED THAT THE NEW ENTRY DID NOT |
| | COMPLY WITH FBC11-4.13.6.A 2INCH ELEVATION CHANGE IS |
| | SHOWN BETWEEN THE EXISTING SIDEWALK AND FINISHED FLOOR. |
| | A NEW NOTE STATES THAT HEIGHT DIFFERENCE SHALL NOT |
| | EXCEED 1/2INCH.IT IS NOT CLEAR HOW 1/2INCH AT DOORWAY |
| | AND AGAIN FROM NEW SLAB TO SIDEWALK WILL EQUAL THE |
| | 2INCH DIFFERENCE.ALSO SEE FBC11-4.5.2, ELEVATION |
| | DIFFERENCE IS TO BE LIMITED TO 1/4INCH.SEE |
| | FBC11-4.1.6, (1)(B). |
| | |
| | NEW COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 9.A2.0 DECLARES OCCUPANCY AS CLASS B, MERCANTILE. |
| | CLASS B IS BUSINESS, MERCANTILE IS CLASS M, 41 |
| | OCCUPANTS.IF THIS IS M, GROUND FLOOR REQUIRES 30SF |
| | PER PERSON, MINIMUM OCCUPANT LOAD WOULD BE 46.PLANS |
| | APPEAR TO BE CODE COMPLIANT FOR OCCUPANT LOAD OF 46 BUT |
| | PLEASE EITHER CLARIFY OCCUPANT LOAD OF 41 AS STATED ON |
| | PLAN OR REVISE AND CONFIRM COMPLIANCE (NO RESPONSE |
| | OTHER THAN REVISION OF OCCUPANT LOAD REQUIRED). |
| | PLEASE NOTE THAT, HAD THE PLANS BEEN OTHERWISE CODE |
| | COMPLIANT, THIS ITEM WOULD NOT HAVE PREVENTED PERMIT |
| | ISSUANCE. |
| | |
| | 10.FBC1003.6, ITEMS OTHER THAN THOSE ALLOWED IN |
| | CHAPTER 10 NOT PERMITTED IN THE EGRESS PATH.HURRICANE |
| | PANELS DO NOT COMPLY WITH THIS CODE SECTION.TO MY |
| | KNOWLEDGE THE ONLY PROVISION IN THE CODE FOR USE OF |
| | SHUTTERS IN EGRESS PATH IN EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY IS FOR |
| | RESIDENTIAL OCCUPANCY ONLY.SEE ALSO COMMENT 6, YOU |
| | ARE NOT ONLY BLOCKING THE REQUIRED EXIT BUT ALSO |
| | BLOCKING WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE ONLY EXIT FOR ONE OF |
| | THE TENANT SPACES. |
