| | THESE DRAWINGS ARE PUBLIC RECORD FOR SHOWING COMPLIANCE |

| | LIFE SAFETY FEATURES MAY BE EXISTING, A FULL AND |
| | COMPLETE SET OF ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING PLANS ARE |
| | NEEDED (ELECTRICAL, MECHANICAL, FIRE ALARM, FIRE |
| | SPRINKLER, ETC.). IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT THE |
| | DESIGN TEAM HAS EXPERIENCE WITH THIS TYPE OF OCCUPANCY. |

| | EMERGENCY LIGHTING LOCATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS TO THE |
| | SMOKE ALARMS, FIRE ALARM, FIRE SPRINKLER AND HVAC |
| | SYSTEMS. |

| | PARTITION." THIS DESCRIPTION IS INCORRECT. IT IS EITHER |
| | A PARTITION OR A BARRIER. |
