| | PLAN REVIEW RESULTS: DENIED. |
| | |
| | 1) SHEET CS-1: NOTE 8 ON THE PLAN INDICATES NO CHANGES |
| | TO THE PLUMBING FIXTURES, HOWEVER THE PLANS SHOW A |
| | KITCHEN REMODEL AND SHOWER AND VANITY ALTERATIONS IN |
| | THE BATHROOMS. PLEASE PROVIDE A MORE DETAILED SCOPE OF |
| | PLUMBING WORK TO CLARIFY IF THE FIXTURES INVOLVED- |
| | SINKS, FAUCETS, SHOWER PANS, SHOWER VALVES AND DRAINS, |
| | DISHWASHER, AND COMPONENTS SUCH AS P-TRAPS, DRAINS, |
| | SHUTOFF VALVES ETC. WILL BE REUSED, RELOCATED OR |
| | REPLACED. |
| | |
| | 2) FAIR HOUSING ACCESSIBILITY GUIDELINES: BECAUSE THE |
| | BUILDING WAS CONSTRUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE |
| | ACCESSIBILITY REQUIREMENTS OF THE FAIR HOUSING ACT AND |
| | THE DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR USABLE BATHROOMS IN DWELLING |
| | UNITS, THE ALTERATIONS THAT ARE PROPOSED IN THE |
| | BATHROOMS SHALL ALSO BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FAIR |
| | HOUSING ACT. THE FAIR HOUSING ACCESSIBILITY GUIDELINES |
| | ARE INCLUDED IN THE FLORIDA ACCESSIBILITY CODE- 2017 |
| | SIXTH EDITION. COMPLIANCE WITH THE GUIDELINES REQUIRES |
| | THAT CLEAR FLOOR SPACES FOR WHEELCHAIR APPROACHES TO |
| | BATH FIXTURES, FIXTURE HEIGHTS AND REACH RANGES SHALL |
| | EITHER BE MAINTAINED AS ORIGINALLY DESIGNED OR PROVIDED |
| | WHERE NEW FIXTURES ARE BEING INSTALLED. |
| | BASED ON THE DRAWING IT IS NOT CLEAR IF USABLE BATHROOM |
| | TYPE A OR B WAS CHOSEN AS THE ORIGINAL DESIGN. THE |
| | DESIGNER OF RECORD MUST INDICATE WHICH TYPE DESIGN WAS |
| | USED ON THE PLAN, AND THEN PROVIDE ENLARGED DIMENSIONED |
| | DRAWINGS OF ANY ALTERATIONS PROPOSED FOR BATHROOM |
| | FIXTURES THAT MAY AFFECT THE ORIGINAL FAIR HOUSING |
| | COMPLIANCES. IF COMPLIANCE IS REQUIRED PLEASE SEE |
| | REQUIREMENT 7 CONTAINED IN THE GUIDELINES AND FIGURES |
| | 3- 7 FOR GUIDANCE. SEE FIGURE 4 FOR SHOWER GRAB BAR |
| | REINFORCEMENT LOCATIONS. SHOWER SEAT COMPLIANCES ARE |
| | FOUND UNDER SECTIONS 610.3 -610.4 FBC ACC. |
| | |
| | 2A) AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO MEETING THE GUIDELINES FOR THE |
| | BATH ALTERATIONS, THE OWNER AND DESIGNER OF RECORD FOR |
| | THE PROPOSED PROJECT MAY PROVIDE A SIGNED AND NOTARIZED |
| | AFFIDAVIT WHICH WOULD INDICATE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT THE |
| | PROPOSED DESIGN DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE |
| | FAIR HOUSING ACCESSIBILITY GUIDELINES, BUT WILL ALSO |
| | REQUIRE THE OWNER TO AGREE TO REVERT THE UNIT BACK TO |
| | COMPLIANCE AT TIME OF SALE IF SO REQUESTED BY THE |
| | BUYER. IF THIS OPTION IS CHOSEN, PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL |
| | TO [email protected] AND I WILL SEND A COPY OF THE FAIR |
| | HOUSING AFFIDAVIT. |
| | |
| | WHEN RESUBMITTING, IT IS HELPFUL TO PROVIDE A RESPONSE |
| | LETTER ADDRESSING EACH ITEM ALONG WITH THE CITY |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL FORM. |
