The plan summary indicates that the space is designed as mixed assembly and business.  Please take a second look at the classification.  Unless I am missing something, I do not see an assembly component.  If it is truly an assembly, the space would require 2 means of egress.   Modify the plans accordingly.

Assembly has been removed from the code summary.  Space is business. PJW Friday, April 24, 2020

There are two HVAC ducts that penetrate the smoke barrier as indicated on sheet M2.1dd.  I do not see an indication of proposed smoke dampers.  Please identify on the plans.  Ensure that the dampers are rated for at least class 2 smoke leakage and have an elevated temperature rating of at least 250 degrees.  NFPA 101:8.4.6.2 and 8.4.6.3.
