Lee (five units) SUBJECT: Request waiver of Sections 54. 13 and 54. 14 , pertaining to use of asement , because area is used only by owner-occupant ; request waiver of Section 13. 06 , pertaining to enclosure of heating area and installation ' of sprinkler system, because of high cost ; and request �aaiver of Section 54. 11 , pertaining to requirement of bathroom facilities within wa11s of each unit , as this would be "physically impossible ." APPEARANCE : Celia F. Lee Joe Dervie (Mrs . Lee ' s son) Alice Bijjani P RO�EEDINGS : Mr. Dervie , speaking on behalf of his mother, explained that she only used the basement for doing her laundry. It was not used by any of tlie tenants . He said there were two units on first floor , one of wi�ich tiaas occupied by Mrs . Lee , both sharing one b athroom. The second floor had three efficien cy units , e ach occupied by one person ; the three second flaor tenants shared two bathrooms . There was also a sleeping room on second, but this was unused and Mrs . Lee did not intend to rent it out in the future . The third floor had two efficiencies and one bathroom to be shared. However, A4rs . Lee h ad discontinued renting one , so the remainin g unit' s occ�:�ant ha�: t�e exclusive use of the bathroom. Alice Bijjani related that the city listed the property as a seven-unit b�zildin�, and she would not recommend a change to a lower number of units , but it should be made clear that occupancy of the second unit on third floar would result in the necessity to provide a second means of egress , if Mrs . Lee should decide to rent it out again. Ms . Bijjani referred to other waivers requested . by Mrs . Lee , in addition se the heatingbarea�wmthrfire- lem, i . e . , that she not be required to enclo and the use of the retardant materials or provide a sprinkler system, laundry area in the b asement. She strongly recommended against any waiver � - 3- 5/13/80 - Meeting No. 161 of requirements concerned with the heating area , since these directly involved matters of life safety. As to the laundry area, there was improper venting , so there was a possibility of sewer gas accumulating. BOARD ACTION: Mr. Glassman moved that the appeal for waiver of reQuire- ments concerning enclosure of the heating area and installation of a sprink- ler system be denied; that a waiver of venting req,uirements pertaining to the laundry area be granted; and that a variance on the shared bathrooms be granted, limited to a maximum of four occupants on the second floor sharing two b athrooms , to be effective so long as Mrs . Lee owns the build- ing . And further, that if both third floor units should in the future be rented, a variance on the shared bathroom is granted, providing an approved second means of egress is installed. Mr. Gausman asked th at the appeal for waiver of proper venting of the laundry be denied because of the possibility of a danger to health of occu- pants . Mr. Glassman said he would accept such an amendment to his motion. Mr. Tieso seconded the motion as amended. MOTION CARRIED AND SO ORDERED.

PROPERTY APPELLANT 11- 80-H 1862 Roblyn Ave . Francis M. I�Tenne (six units) SUBJECT: Reauest waiver of Chapter 13. 03, pertaining to reauirement that exterior exit stairs must continue to grade level , because there is a prob- lem with neighborhood children and v andalism in the building. APPEARANCE : Francis M. Menne Alice Bijjani PROCEEDINGS : Alice Bijjani explained that Mr. Menne ' s building had more than two units above the second floor, thus requiring a second means of egress from each unit. In this case , there was an exterior stairway for this purpose which ended ten feet above ground level , whereas the code required that it reach ground level . Mr. Menne ' s rec�uest for a waiver was based on security reasons rather than monetary. She reported that a member of a community organization had called her to relate that the Police Dept. had recorded over the past year a si.gnificant number of calls in regard to burglary and prowlers at the property , giving good reason ior Mr. Menne ' s concern. Mr. Naibi suggested some type of chain ladder as an alternative , to be lowered from the landing in case of emergency. Mr. Tieso suggested a type of folding ladder, attached to the landing by hinges , which could be flipped over to groun d level if needed. Ms . Bijjani said these were good suggestions , either of which mi�ht make a reasonable sub�titizte for the cade reauirement, but a variance would still be required. BOARD ACTION : Mr. Tieso moved to grant a variance from Section 13. 03 to permit a second means of egress which does not extend to ground level , provided some type of retractible device acceptable to the Code Enforce- ���`�����'� � , �' -4' S/13/80 - Meeting No. 161 � ment Division shall be installed to facilitate passage to ground level in an emergency. b7r.
