| | |
| | 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 FAIR HOUSING |
| | ACT. PLEASE INDICATE ON PLANS WHICH DESIGN |
| | SPECIFICATION ( ?A? OR ?B? OF THE ACT) WAS USED IN THE |
| | ORIGINAL DESIGN OF THESE UNITS. TELL US WHICH USABLE |
| | BATHROOM IN THE DWELLING UNITS, THE ALTERATION THAT IS |
| | PROPOSED IN THE BATHROOM SHALL ALSO BE IN COMPLIANCE |
| | WITH THE FAIR HOUSING ACT. THIS NEEDS TO BE DETERMINED |
| | BY RESEARCHING WHEN THE BUILDING WAS BUILT AND |
| | REQUESTING PLANS FROM THIS CITY'S WEBSITE. THIS MAY |
| | INCUR A FEE AND TIME TO RETRIEVE ALL THIS INFORMATION |
| | AND DETERMINE IF THE LEVEL OF ACCESSIBILITY IS ALTERED. |
| | WE REQUIRE TO SHOW THE DIMENSION OF THE CLEAR FLOOR |
| | SPACE IN THE BATHROOM IN FRONT OF EACH FIXTURE IN THAT |
| | BATHROOM. |
| | |
| | 2. BY LOOKING AND THE PLANS SUBMITTED IN THIS CASE THE |
| | BATHROOM LOOKS LIKE SPECIFICATION A WHICH REQUIRE A |
| | FORWARD APPROACH TO THE TUB. THE SHOWER REQUIRES A |
| | PARALLEL APPROACH TO IT WHICH ARE USUALLY TYPE B AND |
| | THAT IS 30 INCHES BY 48 INCHES AND THE TOILET MAY NOT |
| | ALLOW THAT. IN THE FAIR HOUSING ACT THE ALTERATION DOES |
| | NOT ALLOW TO CHANGE THE TYPE OF RESTROOM FROM IT |
| | ORIGINAL DESIGN. |
| | |
| | 3. 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. 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 PLANS, PLEASE INDICATE THE REVISION & |
| | REMOVE ANY VOIDED SHEETS & REPLACE ANY NECESSARY PAGES. |
| | 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 EXPEDITE YOUR |
