| 2020-03-13 19:10:23 | 03/13/20 1ST PLUMBING/IRRIGATION REVIEW**DENIED** WITH |
| | COMMENTS |
| | |
| | NOTE - A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW COULD NOT BE DONE AT THIS |
| | TIME AND ADDITIONAL PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS MAY BE |
| | GENERATED UPON THE RE-REVIEW OF SUBMITTED CORRECTIONS. |
| | |
| | 1. THIS BUILDING WAS CONSTRUCTED UNDER THE REQUIREMENTS |
| | OF THE FAIR HOUSING ACT. INDICATE ON THE PLANS WHICH |
| | DESIGN SPECIFICATION ( "A" OR 'B" OF THE ACT) WAS USED |
| | IN THE ORIGINAL DESIGN IN THIS UNIT. |
| | |
| | 2. PLEASE PROVIDE DETAIL OF THE SHOWER PAN TYPE OR |
| | MATERIAL YOU ARE USING CONFORMING WHIT 2017 FBC SECTION |
| | 417.5.2. |
| | |
| | 3. THE FAIR HOUSING ACT PROVIDES TWO SETS OF |
| | SPECIFICATIONS TO DESIGN BATHROOMS THAT ARE USABLE BY |
| | PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES. THOUGH THERE ARE OTHER |
| | DIFFERENCES, SPECIFICATION B BATHROOMS OFFER GREATER |
| | ACCESS TO THE TUB THAN SPECIFICATION A BATHROOMS. |
| | |
| | IF THE SPECIFICATION A DESIGN IS SELECTED, ALL |
| | BATHROOMS IN THE UNIT MUST COMPLY WITH SPECIFICATION A |
| | STANDARDS (SECTION 7.14). THIS INCLUDES ACCESS TO ALL |
| | FIXTURES IN EACH SPECIFICATION A BATHROOM (E.G., TWO |
| | LAVATORIES IN ONE BATHROOM WOULD BOTH NEED TO MEET FHA |
| | REGULATIONS). |
| | |
| | IF THE SPECIFICATION B DESIGN IS SELECTED, ONLY ONE |
| | BATHROOM IN THE UNIT, AND ONLY ONE OF EACH TYPE OF |
| | FIXTURE WITHIN THE BATHROOM, MUST COMPLY WITH |
| | SPECIFICATION B STANDARDS (SECTION 7.15). ALL OTHER |
| | BATHROOMS IN THE UNIT MUST MEET THE USABLE BATHROOM |
| | REQUIREMENTS (SECTION 7.11), EXEMPTING MANEUVERING |
| | CLEARANCES AND CLEAR FLOOR SPACE REQUIREMENTS AT |
| | FIXTURES. |
| | |
| | 4. THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH BUILDING DEPARTMENT |
| | PROVIDES AN OPTION FOR THE CHANGING OF AN FHA |
| | COMPLIANCE STRUCTURE. THE OWNER AND DESIGNER OF RECORD |
| | ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PROPOSED BATHROOM DESIGN DOES NOT |
| | MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FAIR HOUSING ACCESSIBILITY |
| | GUIDELINES. THE OWNER AGREES TO REVERT THE UNIT BACK TO |
| | COMPLIANCE AT THE TIME OF SALE IF SO, REQUESTED BY THE |
| | BUYER. THIS WILL BE IN A LETTER TYPE FORMAT SIGNED AND |
| | NOTARIZED BY THE OWNER. WE PROVIDE A SAMPLE LETTER AND |
| | IT MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT OF THE |
| | CITY OF WPB. |
| | |
| | 5. THE PLAN IS TOO SMALL TO READ NOTES, PLANS SHALL BE |
| | DRAWN TO A MINIMUM 1/8 INCH SCALE PER THE WPB AMENDMENT |
| | TO FBC SEC. 107.2.1.3 QUALITY OF BUILDING PLANS. |
| | |
| | WHEN RESUBMITTING PLANS PLEASE INDICATE THE REVISION & |
| | REMOVE ANY VOIDED SHEETS & REPLACE ANY PAGES AS |
| | NECESSARY. A TRANSMITTAL LETTER LISTING THE ORIGINAL |
| | REVIEW COMMENT NUMBER, WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE |
| | REVISION, MADE, IDENTIFYING THE SHEET OR SPECIFICATION |
| | PAGE WHERE THE CHANGES CAN BE FOUND WILL HELP TO |
| | EXPEDITE YOUR PERMIT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANTICIPATED |
| | COOPERATION. |
