| | PERMIT #13080748 |
| | REVIEW COMMENTS - FIRE DEPARTMENT |
| | |
| | THE ADDRESS PROVIDED ON THE PLANS (207 VILLAGE BLVD) |
| | DOES NOT MATCH THE ADDRESS PROVIDED ON THE PERMIT |
| | APPLICATION (721 VILLAGE BOULEVARD - #207). |
| | |
| | THE PLANS INDICATE THIS TO BE A BUSINESS OCCUPANCY; |
| | HOWEVER, AN ASSEMBLY OCCUPANCY IS MORE APPROPRIATE FOR |
| | THIS LARGE MEETING ROOM. AN ASSEMBLY OCCUPANCY IS |
| | DEFINED AS "AN OCCUPANCY USED FOR A GATHERING OF 50 OR |
| | MORE PERSONS FOR DELIBERATION, WORSHIP, ENTERTAINMENT, |
| | EATING, DRINKING, AMUSEMENT, AWAITING TRANSPORTATION, |
| | OR SIMILAR USES." USING AN OCCUPANT LOAD FACTOR OF 15 |
| | SQ.FT. PER PERSON, THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PERSONS IN THIS |
| | SPACE WILL EXCEED 50 (900 SQ.FT. / 15 = 60 PERSONS). |
| | |
| | FOR ASSEMBLY OCCUPANCIES WITH AN OCCUPANT LOAD OF 50 OR |
| | MORE PERSONS, PANIC HARDWARE SHALL BE PROVIDED ON DOORS |
| | TO RELEASE THE LOCK/LATCH. NO OTHER LOCKS OR LATCHES |
| | ARE PERMITTED THAT WOULD NOT BE RELEASED BY THE PANIC |
| | HARDWARE. AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR PANIC HARDWARE, THE MAIN |
| | ENTRANCE IS PERMITTED TO HAVE AN INTERIOR KEYED DOOR |
| | LOCK (AND NO LATCH) WITH A READILY VISIBLE SIGN STATING |
| | THIS DOOR TO REMAIN UNLOCKED WHEN THE BUILDING IS |
| | OCCUPIED. SIGN LETTERS SHALL BE AT LEAST 1 INCH IN |
| | HEIGHT. A THUMB TURN STYLE LOCK IS NOT PERMITTED TO BE |
| | SUBSTITUTED FOR A KEYED LOCK. |
| | |
| | EVERY ASSEMBLY OCCUPANCY ROOM NOT HAVING FIXED SEATS |
| | SHALL HAVE THE OCCUPANT LOAD OF THE ROOM POSTED IN A |
| | CONSPICUOUS PLACE NEAR THE MAIN EXIT FROM THE ROOM. |
| | SIGNS SHALL BE DURABLE AND INDICATE THE NUMBER OF |
| | OCCUPANTS PERMITTED FOR EACH ROOM. |
| | |
| | PROVIDE TACTILE SIGNAGE AT ALL REQUIRED EXIT DOORS WITH |
| | EXIT SIGNS. |
