O. Box 9960 College Station, Texas 77842-9960 Attn: Building Official Building Code Board of Adjustments RE : Request for Variance Ordinance Section: 602 . 6 . 8 Fire Lane Markings Dear Sirs : We hereby respectably submit the attached application for a variance from the above referenced ordinance . We believe that Post Oak Mall is designed in such a way that the strictest requirements (painted curbs) is not necessary. For example, Post Oak Mall does not provide for "head in" parking anywhere around the structure unlike apartment complexes, strip centers, convenience stores, etc . Instead we have a 2-lane roadway around the entire building. This provides for relatively easy access to the building by emergency vehicles should the need arise . On February 3 , 1995 I met with Mr. Eric Hurt, Battalion Chief/Fire Marshall regarding this issue . Mr. Hurt agreed that residential structures; homes, duplexes, apartments and hotel/motels are much more prone to not only suffering a fire but also occurring loss of life than is Post Oak Mall . Mr. Hurt also concurred that access to Post Oak Mall would be much more easily achieved by the Fire Department during all day parts than would access to an apartment building due to its layout and continuous 2-lane roadway around the building. In addition, Post Oak Mall has over 3500 feet of curbing around the buildings perimeter. Over the years the continual painting of these curbs has resulted in layer upon layer of paint to build up. These layers are now cracking and peeling making it impossible to recoat and provide for an acceptable appearance . CBL& ASSOCIATES PROPERTIES, INC. 1500 HARVEY ROAD • COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS 77840 • (409) 764-0060 • FAX (409) 696-0977 City of College Station February 21, 1995 Page 2 We are not requesting the ability to usurp the ordinance in question or to hinder its enforcement . We are requesting the ability to sandblast the paint from the curbs and abide by the intended spirit of the ordinance by adopting option #2 . This option allows for fire lanes to be marked by providing a continuous eight inch (8" ) red stripe painted on the drive surface . This red stripe would contain the wording "NO PARKING - FIRE LANE - TOW AWAY ZONE" painted in four inch (4 " ) white letters . In summation, we believe that the requested modification will provide for the appropriate enforcement of the ordinance without jeopardizing public safety and will significantly enhance the appearance of our property. / Si cerely, I WIlif ' , tiff- ‘ illiam R Silvis General M:nager WRS/cld _ L ,.„ • TO: Eric Hurt,Fire Marshall FROM: Barbara P.
