IECEEO VE-, RE: 5908 Evergreen Way(B2206-064. JUL Z 9 2021 Dear Mr. Martin, CITY OF EVERETT Permit Services Please see enclosed our team's responses to City Comments which we received on July 14 of this year for the partial change of occupancy of the adult education room at Housing Hope Village. Agency comments are in standard text format, and our responses are in bold italics. Comments 1. The structural drawings have not been signed. Other information, such as the"Current Set" in the title block also appears incomplete. Verify if these are the most current drawings that should be reviewed. See enclosed plans. The title sheets have been updated, and include signature. 2. The room size is specified as 1,114 SF on Sheet A1.11, but appears to scale to approximately 1,400 SF. The'/"scale on the sheet appears to be printed at the correct size. The room size should be verified. See enclosed plans. The room should scale at 38'-6"x 28'-10"yielding just under 1,114 s.f. 3. The occupant load will exceed the 24 occupants specified on Sheet CS00. Based on an occupant load of 20, the load will exceed 50, triggering additional requirements. If the room size is such that a maximum load of 49 can be justified, this limit should be stated in the"Building information"and a maximum occupant size should be specified in the Floor Plan on Sheet A1.11. The sign should comply with IBC Section 1004.9. Additional safety measures such as providing panic hardware should be considered per Section 1010.1.10. See enclosed plans. A plaque describing maximum occupant load of 49 has been called for immediately outside the room. 4. Continuing with the previous comment, if the occupant load significantly exceeds 49 such that a limit cannot be reasonably justified, exit signs and interior/exterior emergency egress light should be specified in the plans. Signs and lighting should be provided with minimum 90-minute back-up power. See IBC Sections 1008.3 and 1013.1. See enclosed plans. The E occupancy will be licensed for 22 students, and 2 staff. This, along with the added occupancy limit sign should address any occupant load concerns. 5. Drinking fountains are required per IBC Section 2902.5. The foundations should be accessible per Section 1109.5. See enclosed plans. A drinking fountain has been called for in the plans. 6. The proposed is required to comply with the accessibility improvement requirements of IEBC Section 307.5. This includes accessible routes and toilet facilities serving the areas being altered. Note that the First Floor bathrooms appears to have accessibility deficiencies, including but not limited to the interior maneuvering clearance to exit the bathrooms(i.e., the sinks encroach into the door maneuvering clearance). 1967 ARCHITECTURE + DESIGN I I 2017
