Board asks applicant to update construction documents to 2025 building code and verify occupant load
Summary
Planning staff and board members told the applicant to update construction documents to the 2025 New York State uniform building code, perform occupant-load and fixture-count calculations, and confirm exit configurations and any energy-code changes before the town-board hearing.
Staff told the applicant that the project's construction documents must be updated to reflect changes in the New York State 2025 uniform building code, including the energy-code updates that affect building envelopes and insulation. The chair asked the applicant's designer to provide calculations demonstrating the building's occupant load and fixture counts so the board can verify exits and restroom requirements.
The board noted doors on the drawings currently swing the wrong way for egress and emphasized that updates should include occupant-load calculations and confirmation that the design meets 2025 UBC and energy requirements. The applicant agreed that the designer would update documents and perform the fixture and occupant-load calculations before the next submission.
