Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday, December 4, 2017 <br /> Page 15 <br /> the program and therefore reduced to better reflect actual costs that resulted in a <br /> benefit to residents accordingly. <br /> Public Comment <br /> Roger Hess,Jr., 1906 Wagner Place <br /> Mr. Hess questioned the fee for temporary tent inspections and whether this was a <br /> one-time fee or per set up; and whether it was state-mandated. Mr. Hess noted <br /> that if the fee was for each time, it would add up to a lot of money; and ques- <br /> tioned if this fee applied to tents with sides and no heat source or if there were ex- <br /> ceptions when a fire inspection was not required. <br /> Also, Mr. Hess opined that the building permit fees seemed excessive for residen- <br /> tial permits versus those charged to larger developers. <br /> Fire Chief Tim O'Neill (page 14—outdoor temporary events/$125 fire inspec- <br /> tion fee; and page 15 (tents) <br /> In response, Chief O'Neill clarified the fee was for every time a tent was erected; <br /> regardless if there was no heat source or no sides. Chief O'Neill further clarified <br /> that this only impacted tents of 400 square feet or greater, eliminating most tent <br /> sizes erected for bazaars or flea markets. <br /> Specific to whether the fees are mandated by state law, Chief O'Neill responded <br /> that they are regulated by state fire code dictating any tent structures of 400 <br /> square feet or larger were to be permitted and inspected by the Fire Marshal. <br /> While the fee for these inspections was addressed, Chief O'Neill reported that the <br /> city averages only six such inspections per year. <br /> As to whether each time a tent was erected if it required an inspection, Chief <br /> O'Neill responded that yes it did since things change, tents may or may not be the <br /> same such as in rental situations, and the Fire Marshal was required to inspect to <br /> ensure that a fire resistant tag, as mandated, was provided for each tent; as well as <br /> the tent's location and proximity to vehicles, other tents, other structures, etc. all <br /> in accordance with code requirements. Once sides are installed on a tent, Chief <br /> O'Neill advised that it became even more complicated as it became more like an <br /> actual structure, requiring location fire exits, exit lighting, emergency lighting, lo- <br /> cation and width of aisles, and occupancy loads. <br /> As to heat sources, if there were any flames involved, Chief O'Neill advised that <br /> they were not normally allowed in these types of tents,but also included as part of <br /> the inspection process. <br /> Chief O'Neill advised that the majority of tent inspections performed by the Fire <br /> Marshal annually involved fireworks sales, and obviously were under quite regu- <br /> lated inspection parameters due to their particular use. <br />
