See IBC Section 107.2.1. The following comments should be addressed: a. The codes should specify the editions. See the EMC Section 16.005.030. b. The proposed project does not comply with the scope limitations of IRC Section R101.2. The IRC should be removed from the list. 2.

All references to the IRC should be removed. See IBC Section 107.2.1. 3. The building occupancy classification should be specified in the drawings. See IBC Section 302.1. 4.

The following comments should be addressed: a. Aerial imagery of the project site appears to indicate that the actual distance between the exterior building walls for the two buildings is less than 10 feet. The distance should be verified and revised as needed. b. The project should specify an imaginary lot line between the two building to establish the effective fire separation distances for each building. Note that the distance should not be less than 5 feet for the single-family residence (SFR) (i.e., the western building) unless improvements to this building are performed under a separate permit. See IBC Section 705.3. 7. The building has a 0-foot fire separation distance on the north side and a presume fire separation distance of less than 10 feet on the west side. These sides of the buildings are required to have a minimum one -hour fire -rated construction per IBC Table 602. The walls are required to be rated from both directions per IBC Section 705.5. Details for the walls including references to rated tested assemblies should be provided. See IBC Section 703.2. 8. Continuing with the previous comment, the parapet on the north wall is required to have the same construction as the wall below. See IBC Section 705.11.1. 9.
