Questions/Comments
l. What will be the intended OCCUPANCY of this facility?
As identified in the narrative it appears to fall within I-3 condition #2 (OSSC
308.4) due to the following narrative criteria:
A. Restricted egress of occupants for duration of detoxification stay.
B. Unclear if this restricted egress is limited to the sleeping units, or the exterior
doors. (308.4.2)
L.-
L If restricted to sleeping units this qualifies as I-3 Condition 2 and
provisions within OSSC 408 are required to be evaluated, unless
otherwise noted within the code.
IL If restricted egress is for the exterior doors (only) of the facility this may
qualify as Occupancy classification R-4 Condition 2 (OSSC 3f 0.5.2)
Licensure by Oregon Department of Human Services is condition of
qualification. Please present licensure requirements for operating this facility.
Unclear of requirements for a "Pre"-Residential Detox facility for the State of
Oregon. Please provide supporting docs where applicable to ensure
appropriate code is followed for compliance within the confines of OSSC,
OPSC, OMSC and OESC.
2. Due to the building being located across two lot lines and an adjoining required
parking lot (per Planning) encompasses two additional lot lines, a deed restriction
on file will be required. This is to avoid conflict with a single structure spanning
two legal lots. Please provide support documents to this condition.
4. Does this building have a SmokeiHeat Detection system? OSSC 1010.1.9.7
5. Ensue all applicable requirements associated with Egress is addressed in
accordance with Ch l0 of the OSSC to meet conditions for determined
Occupancy classification. (See also 1010.1.9.3 and 10101.1.9.7 to ll)
6. Clear designation of uses of all rooms as proposed to be included in submittal
documents for Building permits. OSSC 107.4.1
7. Systems used for electronic mechanical locking will need to have spec sheets
submitted for evaluation, and clear information within electrical plans for this
condition.
8. Appropriate construction (fire/smoke barriers/partitions as appropriate) for the
separation of spaces as identified requirements for Occupancy classification
decided to work on.
A. The mechanical and plumbing requirements in accordance with OMSC and
OPSC respectively will need to be evaluated in accordance with what
Occupancy classification is determined to be best fit for scope of proposed
use.
