If the structure will ever be used as a sleeping area (Residential Occupancy Type), the
following requirements must be met:
WATER SUPPLY
Fire hydrants, where required, must be the type approved by the water district having
jurisdiction and the Fire Department. Hydrant spacing and water flow must meet minimum
requirements based on type of occupancy. Minimum flow and spacing requirements include:
Residential within Urban Growth Area, 1,000 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced not
further than 400 feet to the building, on 800-foot centers thereafter
These requirements may be modified if buildings are equipped with automatic fire sprinkler
systems.
PLEASE NOTE: In response, to Bryan Soth's question, I don't have flow records for that
area but Roger Buffington from FC Water might. The closest hydrant is at 240 Wood St.
REQUIRED ACCESS
Fire access roads (fire lanes) shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a
building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the PFA's jurisdiction when any
portion of the facility or any portion of an exterior wall of the first story of the building is
located more than 150 feet from fire apparatus access as measured by an approved route
around the exterior of the building or facility. This fire lane shall be visible by painting and
signage, and maintained unobstructed at all times. A fire lane plan shall be submitted for
approval prior to installation. In addition to the design criteria already contained in relevant
standards and policies, any new fire lane must meet the following general requirements:
❑ Be designed as a flat, hard, all-weather driving surface (asphalt or concrete) capable of
supporting fire apparatus weights. Compacted road base shall be used only for temporary
fire lanes or at construction sites.
❑ Have appropriate maintenance agreements that are legally binding and enforceable.
❑ Be designated on the plat as an Emergency Access Easement.
❑ Maintain the required minimum width of 20 feet throughout the length of the fire lane
(30 feet on at least one long side of the building when the structures is three or more stories
in height).
If the building is equipped throughout with an approved automatic fire -sprinkler system, the
fire code official is authorized to increase the dimension of 150 feet.
PLEASE NOTE: The proposed structure is approximately 165 feet from the edge of Wood
Street. Also, PFA does not "count" alleys as a means of emergency vehicle access.
2006 International Fire Code 503.1.1, 503.2.3, 503.3, 503.4 and Appendix D

This structure is considered an "accessory structure with habitable space," it is not a
dwelling unit and may not be used as a dwelling unit in the future without further review by
the City and Poudre Fire Authority.
If the structure is used for sleeping quarters by a resident of the primary structure, which is
considered "residential occupancy" by Poudre Fire Authority, the structure will need to meet
the specified requirements of Poudre Fire Authority regarding emergency vehicle access,
firefighting water supply and structure addressing.

[4/27/10] If the transformer needs to be relocated ( it looks like it was placed outside of the
easement), this will be done at L&P expense. If service is taken from the house, we have
no further comments. If additional power is needed, service will come from the existing
transformer and normal fees will apply.
(Power will come from house. Transformer does not need to be relocated.)
