3) With no life safety plan and no exit signage indicated, it is unclear what is proposed for means of egress. The plan need to indicate proposed exit locations, travel distance, common path of travel, dead end corridors etc.
Note: Evaluate the existing "not in this project" spaces to ensure that the addition does not affect egress from those spaces. If egress from the addition utilizes the existing spaces, those spaces will need to be included in the scope of this permit.
