•Ric Mr.hards Ar Paul Richards chitecture and Planning LLC Plan Check Number: BW2001-004, First Fire Review S this space. An alternate second door is required. Note also that the secondary door exits through an exterior fenced area; this may or may not be an issue for an exit path. I have adjusted the exits doors at the rear grocery per more accurate photos. Per my calculations, the currently permitted exits are approx. 2'-6" feet over the 1/2 diagonal rule. See IEBC 805.2 General, Exception #2. These exits were installed per the original building permit and should be allowed to prevail without alteration. Yes, other exits were installed as part of a shell retail to allow flexibility, but the currently used exits are still within a reasonable distance for safety. The fence is noted on the demo plans to be re-configured so as to provide a clear exit access to the street. 4. The north area in "Building A" has primary ingress through the fire door, but requires egress through other doors. Verify if there is a code issue. Movement through fire doors is common in many buildings, and is permitted in the IBC. The fire door has a fusible link to automatically close the door in the event of a fire, and is not shown as an exit nor does it have an exit sign on either side of the fire wall. 5. The north M-occupancy area in "Building B" is located in a fire area permitted for A-3. The building appears adequate for this occupancy, but the proposed layout may negate existing permitted non-conforming conditions (e.g., egress) if the space is reverted back to an A-3 use in the future. This permit application is concerned with the current M occupancy that exists in the building. Any future occupancy will need to deal with its requirements. 6. The south A-occupancy area in "Building B" is included in the plan with exiting information. The area does not comply with current code, but appears to be pre-existing and therefore "grandfathered". Verify if the information, or portions thereof, in this space should be removed from the drawing to prevent unintended permitting of any existing non- conforming conditions. The existing A3-occupancy (restaurant) south of the M - occupancy of this building is not on the permit and is not part of the work of these drawings, but was shown only for general information. A note has been added to the drawings for clarification. 7. The building appears to have modifications to the building, most notably but not limited to the proposed M-occupancy area in the south building. Existing conditions most closely match the "1995 1996 Daves Place" plan; other plans do not appear consistent with the layout as shown in the current submittal. Examples include removing a counter and adjacent room of unspecified use, changing the women's restroom into storage, changing the men's restroom into an apparent unisex restroom, adding an office, adding a cold storage, and other miscellaneous modifications. New alteration work (those items that the City of Everett does not seem to have plans for) has been shown on the plans. The plans reflect the existing conditions todate. C_____Page2of3
