comments.
1.A building permit will be required for the conversion of the guest house into a single
family residence.
2.The following is a list of anticipated upgrades that will be required in order for the
structure to meet current requirements of the International Residential Code (IRC.)
a. Installation of a kitchen.
b. Installation of smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms per current code.
c. Installation of a whole house ventilation system.
d. Any previous alterations performed without required permits are to be included
in the above referenced building permit.
e. Any significant safety violations discovered during City inspections of the
premises will require correction under the above referenced building permit.
3.Each sleeping room is required to have a code compliant egress window.

the IRC for exterior walls.
5.A Park Impact fee will be assessed under the building permit at the rate for a new single
family residence of $2734.05.
6.Other building code requirements may be identified during the plan review and
