Appeal Information Sheet
Appeal item 1
| Code Section | PFC 503.1.1, PFC D105.1 |
|---|---|
| Requires | PFC 503.1.1: The fire apparatus access road shall extend to within 150 feet of all portions of the facility and all portions of the exterior walls of the first story of the building as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the building. PFC D105.1: Buildings or portions of buildings or facilities exceeding 30 feet (9144 mm) in height above the lowest level of fire department vehicle access shall be provided with approved fire apparatus access roads capable of accommodating fire department aerial apparatus. |
| Code Modification or Alternate Requested | Approval of current building location and height exceeding code maximums |
| Proposed Design | Inclusion of 13D fire sprinklers |
| Reason for alternative | PFC 503.1.1: Given the depth of the site, there is no alternative design feasible. PFC D105.1: This request is based in preference. The owner is very keen on the chosen design and height. Offering fire sprinklers is a reasonable exchange for them. |
