SUBJECT: Church use 200 SW 41st St
1. The applicant did not specify the exact area/space of proposed use or square
footage. A Change of Use will require a building permit and may require an
annual Place of Assembly permit from the fire department. Also depending
on any building changes, the existing fire sprinkler and fire alarm systems may
need modifications. Separate plans and permits would be required to be
submitted to and reviewed and approved by the fire department for any
required changes to the fire sprinkler and fire alarm systems.
2. Fire impact fees for a church use are less than that for medical office use, so
no fire impact fees would apply in this case.
