| | CITY CODE SECTION 78-490 |
| | |
| | NOT APPROVED, SEE BELOW: |
| | |
| | 1) UPON THE BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION FORM PROVIDED, |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE THE CONTRACTOR'S SIGNATURE. LIST THE |
| | CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH IN BOX 9 ON THE REAR OF THE |
| | APPLICATION. ADDITIONALLY, PLEASE PROVID A PARKLET |
| | PERMIT APPLICATION THAT YOU MAY OBTAIN FROM KEVIN |

| | |
| | 2) THERE ARE MANY GENERAL NOTES ON THE COVER PAGE CVR |
| | WHICH ARE NOT APPLICABLE AND TO SOME DEGREE IN CONFLICT |
| | WITH CITY CODE SECTION 78-490. PLEASE REMOVE AS NEEDED. |
| | |
| | 3) CITY CODE 78-497 (B)()C. - WIND RESISTANCE - YOU |
| | SPECIFIED THE WIND RESISTANCE STANDARD UTILIZED IN THE |
| | DESIGN OF THE PARKLET, HOWEVER THERE IS LITTLE DETAIL |
| | FOR FASTENING SUCH AS SCREW SIZE & SPACING, AND THERE |
| | IS NO CONNECTION TO EARTH. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT |
| | INTENT TO DESIGN FOR WIND RESISTANCE PURSUANT TO FBC |
| | CHAPTER 16 FOR THE LOCATION AS RISK CATEGORY II IS NOT |
| | TO BE ALLOWED BUT DESIGN OF A LESSER WIND RESISTANCE |
| | WITH INTEND TO REMOVE IN THE EVENT OF FORECASTED HIGH |
| | WINDS IS PREFERRED BY THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT SO |
| | THAT CITY ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE WILL NOT BE ADVERSELY |
| | AFFECTED. PLEASE CONSIDER A RE-DESIGN TO ALLOW FOR |
| | REMOVAL IN THE EVENT OF FORECASTED HIGH WINDS. FOR |
| | EXAMPLE, IF THE INTENT IS TO REMOVE PRIOR TO FORECASTED |
| | 75 MPH WINDS, PROVIDE A DESIGN CAPABLE OF WITHSTANDING |
| | 90 MPH WINDS AND PROVIDE THE REMOVAL PLAN. A |
| | RE-SUBMITTED DESIGN SHOULD CONTAIN THE DESIGN CRITERIA |
| | AND ALL THE DETAILS NECESSARY TO CONSTRUCT THE PARKLET |
| | INCLUDING NAIL OR SCREW SIZE AND SPACING AND ALL OTHER |
| | CONNECTORS SPECIFICS. |
| | |
| | 4) CITY CODE 78-497 (B)(1)F. - ACCESSIBILITY - PLEASE |
| | INDICATE THE INTENT TO COMPLY WITH FBC ACCESSIBILITY |
| | CHAPTER 3 AS TO APPROACH, GROUND SURFACES, OPENINGS IN |

| | COMPLIANCE WITH FBC ACCESSIBILITY TABLE 221.2.1.1 |
