Landreville, Life Safety Division, RE: Request for comments on Uniform Building Code On Friday, February 6, 1998 I received a fax from the Community Development department. You requested that our department comment on one issue from the Uniform Building Code regarding main disconnects. I have discussed the issue with Acting Chief Tracey Barlow. We agree that section 101 .6 should remain in the Code. However, we do not find either exception A or B acceptable. Exception A could potentially put firefighters at risk by requiring them to enter a building on fire in order to disconnect the power. Both exceptions mention the use of rapid entry security boxes. This would present a deterrent to entry in mutual aid situations (where one municipality responds to another) because there is no universal key system used. Another issue was raised regarding section 104.15. Mr. Bosse was concerned that this section was in violation of the Standard Fire Prevention Code. In a strict interpretation that section could violate section 703. We have agreed, however, that this section in the Uniform Building Code is acceptable. The decision was based on the inclusion of the sentence "these permitted uses will be up to the discretion of the Electrical Inspector". Thank you for soliciting input from our department. It is important that we all work together to address issues of concern. A representative from our department will once again be attending your meetings regularly so we may serve as an additional resource if necessary. t �rl►' Name „„ 119, ELICAN BAY DRIVE, DAYTONA BEACH, , .32119-1381 1 , (904) 322-5160 FAX (904) 322-5164 " l Mayor William Arthur,Vice Chairman Donald F.Large,Executive Director a Volusia Council of Governments RECEIVED MEMORANDUM JAN221998 Community uzveiopment TO: Unified Code Committee Members FROM: Don Large DATE: January 21, 1998 SUBJECT: Uniform Building Code - 1998 Proposed Amendments Enclosed is the Uniform Building Code revised with the 1998 proposed amendments.
