Box 1115 <br />604 West J <br />La Porte, Texas 77571 <br /> <br />Attn: Mr. Jack Owen, Chairman <br />Fire Code Review Committee <br /> <br />Re: TCDC - La Porte, 8lQ & 8lR <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Owen: <br /> <br />The following letter was suggested by Mr. Paul Higginbotham for your review. <br /> <br />Presently our office has submitted to the City for building permit on two <br />buildings. We feel due to the type of buildings they are, in reference to <br />several items such as, 1) they have continuous placed overhead sectional, <br />full vertical lift, wood doors on the front at 18'-4" o.c., 2) they have <br />continuous placed overhead sectional, full vertical lift, wood doors on the <br />rear at 60'-0" o.c. (as required for rail service), 3) they have personnel <br />exits, both front and rear faces spaced so they meet or exceed the Southern <br />Building Code Requirements, 4) they have an extensive fire sprinkler protection <br />system which meets or exceeds the State Board of Insurance Requirements, and <br />5) they have included in them "smoke relief" roof vents and draft curtains as <br />outlined by the Southern Building Code. <br /> <br />Our client has requested our office to obtain a variance on the code, as Mr. <br />Higginbotham has explained to us, which deals with the placement of an access <br />door at 100' o.c. around the perimeter of both buildings. <br /> <br />R <br /> <br />T UTE <br /> <br />A FI <br />
