You reviewed plans (see PLBLDG-1088-2018) and so I told him I would relay his information to you so you can arrange an inspection.

I thought it would be helpful to walk through these items with you just to make sure we are on the same page and we don’t head down the wrong direction. Do you have any time available either this afternoon or tomorrow afternoon? I don’t think it will take more then 15-20 minutes max.

Date:Wednesday, July 29, 2015 5:07:04 PM Rodger, we need to be careful as the R-3 occupancy classification under the CBC does specify the following uses as permitted uses: · Boarding Houses (nontransient) with 16 or fewer occupants · Boarding Houses (transient) with 10 or fewer occupants · Same for congregate residences.

As a reference, please look at the CRC 1.1.3 (Scope): Specifically states Owner-occupied lodging houses with 5 or fewer guestrooms shall be permitted to be constructed as One and Two family dwellings using the CRC. Please note the italics and double lines in the margin indicating that this is both a change in code and State Fire Marshal specific language. The building classification “Boarding House (transient)” is not included in the CRC. If the use of the building is other than owner-occupied it would be covered under the CBC as either R-1 (transient) or R-2 (non-transient).

Hello All, Would you be willing to meet with the applicant to discuss the lot line adjustment proposed for 667 Monterey (LLA 56-14), to help us move toward some final action on this application? From our recent discussions about adjusting lot lines to place a line around the Leitcher Building, it is apparent that the applicant’s argument (see below) is not supported by Building or Fire. The applicant contends that exterior fire wall ratings and limitation on building openings (particularly those of the reconstructed porch around the building) will not apply to the relocated building because it should be classified as an R-3 Occupancy Type under the 2013 CBC, as a Boarding House (transient). It will be useful to discuss with the applicant, in person, the reasons that the proposed 2- guest-room Bed & Breakfast Inn could not be considered a Boarding House (transient), and thus would not be classified as an R-3 Occupancy Type, and why it would instead be classified as an R-1 Occupancy Type. It may also be helpful to discuss how the current proposal relates to the future phases of the larger Monterey Place project, and the possibility of achieving compliance with building safety codes through “no-build” easements to provide proper building separation. Let me know if you are available for such a meeting, and if so, I will set something up with the applicant.

Date:Wednesday, July 29, 2015 5:13:49 PM Correct, however the “order of precedence and use” clearly states how conflicts in code language are to be resolved. Being that the most specific and most restrictive shall prevail. I checked the code language with other States and they have identical language when it applies to transient lodging. This may need an official code interpretation from the SFM.
