Item No. 3 PC: 5-6-93 UP-92-31 Page 5 disabled access requirements. The structure must also provide handicapped accessible restrooms, provide a sprinkler system for the building, provide an acceptable exit system, and install a commercial hood for the kitchen. Because the restaurant is already in operation, compliance with these Code provisions is required in substantially less time than the normal 18- month approval period for a new use. The owner is being required to submit all necessary building permits and plans within 60 days of the effective date of the application's approval and complete all required construction and improvements within an additional six months. Fire Code Compliance: The proposed change in use and occupancy of the building has also resulted in the need to meet specific Uniform Fire Code and National Fire Protection Association requirements. Those requirements, which are contained in the Conditions of Approval, involve the need for an approved Fire Permit for the place of assembly, meeting minimum standards for the building's exits, maintaining emergency access for fire personnel and vehicles, providing a proper hood and duct system for the kitchen, securing a Fire Permit for the building's fire extinguishers, and installing an automatic sprinkler system for the building. FACILITIES/SERVICES: Water Supply: The owners have proposed to continue using the site's existing well for a water supply. The Environmental Health Division has responded to the request with Conditions, based upon Title 22 of the State Safe Drinking Water Act, requiring repairs to the well and meeting minimum standards for a public water supply system. Sewage Disposal: Sewage disposal will be provided by an existing on-site septic system that is located under paving near the southeast comer of the building. The facility will be allowed to continue using the system subject to its replacement under permit and inspection by the Environmental Health Division at such time that it fails. The replacement system will be subject to current Public Health standards and will not be permitted to be placed under paving. Storm Drainage: There are currently no facilities on the site to collect storm water runoff from existing improvements. At a minimum, Sections 9-1135.2{c} and 9-1135.9.of the Development Title require that additional storm drainage resulting from new construction or improvements,including paving, is to be collected in a retention pond to be constructed on the site or conveyed to terminal drainage. Because there are no downstream drainage facilities and because the site has never made provisions for drainage, all storm drainage generated by on-site and off-site improvements (existing and proposed) shall either be retained in on-site basins or discharged to the San Joaquin River. The latter will require State-level review of the project's environmental documents,approved permits from the State Reclamation Board,Reclamation District No. 17,and a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit.
