32C-019 7 Pleasant Street Thomas Douglas Architects Inc Code Review 196 Pleasant Street Northampton, MA 413 -58.5 -0641 The tenants will not spend more than $100,000 or 30% of the assessed value of their space. There will be no public toilets. All new construction elements will comply with 521 CMR There will be no changes to other parts of the tenant space for 521 CMR compliance. PARKING No new parking is required SIGNAGE To be filed under a separate permit 3 of 3 7 Pleasant Street Thomas Douglas Architects Inc Code Review 196 Pleasant Street Northampton, MA 413 -585 -0641 FIRE SAFTEY The tenant will install new exit and emergency lights on both floor levels. New fire extinguishers will be installed at locations to be determined by the fire department. EQUIPMENT Tea that is served by the business will be made in the kitchen area. There is no commercial hood system proposed for the kitchen. There will be a new exhaust hood that will be less than 400 CFM. It will be vented directly to the exterior through new metal ductwork. The only cooking will be to make boiled water. There will not be any grease -laden smoke. Steam will be the only byproduct of cooking. The tea and any food products are made with boiling water. The appliance that is proposed for use is an induction cooker, aka a hot plate. The appliance produces 1800 watts from an internal heating element, and there is no flame. An alternate but much less desirable appliance would be a rice cooker. The rice cooker would also produce 1800 watts from an internal heating element and there is no flame produced. The owners would like to use the hot plate for boiling water to produce their tea. Their product cannot be successfully produced using a rice cooker. Please see spec sheets for the appliances attached to this document. A waiver from the building department is required to install the proposed hood and the induction cookers. HVAC Any HVAC units must be attached to the rear of the building (not the side) due to zoning laws. TOILETS Since there are no public seats in the tenant space, there are no proposed public toilets. There is an existing employ'ee only toilet in the basement, which will receive new finishes. This toilet is not open to the public.
