RE: Revision to Permit #2007-0651
Project: Addition
Project Address: 7621 Lake Ballinger Way
During. re -review of the proposed plans for the above noted project, it was found that the following
information, clarifications or changes are needed. Provide written responses to each comment and where
changes can be found on the plans. Please resubmit to Theresa Umbaugh, Permit Coordinator.
1. Site Plan: Three versions of the site plan have been re -submitted to the City. The latest site plan
submitted 1115 does not contain required information shown on the previous two site plans. Please
provide a revised site plan showing all information on the November 5t' site plan,lluus the following
information so it is all on one plan:
a. The dimension from the building to the west property line is not legible due to the thickness
of lines on the plans. Please clarify.
b. Dimension accessible parking stall and access aisle and show the proposed accessible
parking sign (previous item 1 c).
c. Note what types of items are stored in the shed (previous item lb).
d. Label the rectangular object next to the east wall of the building (chimney?).
e. Note if gravel parking area is proposed or existing (including any proposed alterations).
f. Label the existing sign(s).
g. Note that the concrete stoop will be removed. Also see comment 10 below regarding
openings.
h. Dimension distance from eave to west property line.
2. Previous item 7: A 30" parapet is required at the west exterior wall unless and exception is used in IBC
704.11. The architect's response states he is using exception #3, however the plans do not show these
requirements to qualify for the exception. The entire roof is not 2 hour fire resistance rated
construction, nor is the roof construction (deck and supporting construction) of non-combustible
materials. Please revise to include all requirements of the exception chosen. Often exception #4 is used
for wood frame buildings (it must meet all items listed in exception #4).
3. Previous item 10: The floor at storage 105 is not an accessible feature. In looking at the plans it appears
that the restroom and customer counter area could be upgraded to meet IBC/WAC 3409.6 exception 1.
Provide a letter stamped and signed by the architect (reference the code exception), stating what parts of
the existing site and building are not accessible, the project cost and what 20% of it equals, list the
upgrades that will be done as part of this permit as well as showing that the total cost of the upgrades is
at least 20%.
4. Previous item 11: Complete then enclosed Envelope Summary form and Lighting Summary form as
previously requested.
5. Previous item 12: Provide manufacturer's installation instructions and information for the "ceiling
mounted heater" shown on the mechanical plan. Show how ventilation will be provided to the new
space in accordance with VIAQ 304 (if mechanical ventilation will be provided, 0.15 cfmisf of outdoor
air is required). Submit 2 sets of revised plans.
6. Previous item 13: The structural notes are still missing from the plans.
7. Previous item 22: Still waiting for Special Inspection Agreement to be submitted.
8. Previous item 23: Still waiting for contractor's written statement per IBC 1705.3 to be submitted.
9. Previous item 24 not addressed: As previously requested, provide foundation plan, floor plan, framing
plans, construction sections, etc. A separate permit application is required for this building.
10. The site plan now shows that the west exterior wall of the building is 5 feet or less from the property
line, therefore no openings are permitted in this wall. Remove the door and window shown and infill
with 2 hour -fire -rated construction.

Footnotes for Table 15-1
1) In cases in which a general use and a specific use are listed, the specific use shall apply. In cases in which a use is not
mentioned specifically, the Unit Power Allowance shall be determined by the building official. This determination shall be
based upon the most comparable use specified in the table. See Section 1512 for exempt areas.
2) The watts per square foot may be increased, by two percent per foot of ceiling height above twenty feet, unless specifically
directed otherwise by subsequent footnotes.
3) Watts per square foot of room may be increased by two percent per foot of ceiling height above twelve feet.
4) For all other spaces, such as seating and common areas, use the Unit Light Power Allowance for assembly.
5) Watts per square foot of room may be increased by two percent per foot of ceiling height above nine feet.
6) See Section 1532 for exterior lighting.
7) For conference rooms and offices less than 150fe with full height partitions, a Unit Lighting Power Allowance of 1.20 wlft2
may be used.
8) For the fire engine room, the Unit Lighting Power Allowance is 1.0 watts per square foot.
9) For indoor sport tournament courts with adjacent spectator seating, the Unit (righting Power Allowance for the court area is
2.6 watts per square foot.
10) Display window illumination installed within 2 feet of the window, provided that the display window is separated from the
retail space by walls or at least three -quarter -height partitions (transparent or opaque). and lighting for free-standing display
where the lighting moves with the display are exempt_
An additional 1.5 wlft2 of merchandise display luminaires are exempt provided that they comply with all three of the
following:
a) located on ceiling -mounted track or directly on or recessed into the ceiling itself (not on the wall).
b) adjustable in both the horizontal and vertical axes (vertical axis only is acceptable for fluorescent and other fixtures
with two points of track attachment).
c) fitted with LED, tungsten halogen, fluorescent, or high intensity discharge lamps.
This additional lighting power is allowed only if the lighting is actually installed.
11) Provided that a floor plan, indicating rack location and height, is submitted, the square footage for a warehouse may be
defined, for computing the interior Unit Lighting Power Allowance, as the floor area not covered by racks plus the vertical
face area (access side only) of the racks- The height allowance defined in footnote 2 applies only to the floor area not
covered by racks.
12) Medical and clinical offices include those facilities which, although not providing overnight patient care, do provide medical,
dental, or psychological examination and treatment. These spaces include, but are not limited to , laboratories and
treatment centers.
