Mr. Scholes noted that he will need more details unless the building is sprinklered. He noted, for the Fire Department to have access, the alley would have to be improved with clear access and no parking would be permitted in the alley. Project Engineer i Karen Finke asked what the maximum distance is from a fire hydrant to the farthest part of the t building. Mr. Scholes noted it is to be 150' or less.
