Re: Case Number SUP24-000011 Odyssey Homes Duplex
Dear Planning & Zoning,
The Caldwell City Fire Department District has reviewed and can approve the
application subject to compliance with all the following code requirements and
conditions of approval. Any deviation from this plan is subject to Fire
Department approval. Please note that unless stated otherwise, this memo
represents the requirements of the 2018 International Fire Code (IFC) as adopted
by the Idaho State Fire Marshal’s Office.
Conditions:
1. Fire hydrants, capable of producing the required fire flow, shall be
located along approved fire lanes. Fire hydrant spacing shall meet the
requirements of IFC table C105.1.1 (IFC 507.3, IFC B105.2, IFC C105).
2. Fire apparatus access roads shall extend to within 150 feet of all portions
of the exterior walls of the first story of a building measured by an
approved route around the exterior of the building or facility. (IFC 503.1.1)
3. Fire apparatus access roads shall have an unobstructed width of not less
than 20 feet and an unobstructed vertical clearance of not less than 13
feet 6 inches. (IFC 503.2.1)
General Requirement:
Fire Department required fire hydrants, access, and street identification shall be
installed prior to construction or storage of combustible materials on site. Provisions may
be made for temporary access and identification measures.
Specific building construction requirements of the International Building Code,
International Fire Code and City of Caldwell Code will apply. However, these provisions
are best addressed by a licensed Architect at time of building permit application.
Regards,
Alan Perry
