Box 1180, Maple Grove, MN 55311-6180 FIRE-RESCUE DEPARTMENT Fire Operations Fire Prevention 763-494-6300 763-494-6090 763-494-6421 Fax 763-494-6439-Fax February 22, 2019 RE: The Reserve Arbor Lakes Building 3 Site Plan Review We have reviewed the proposed concept plans for The Reserve Arbor Lakes Building 3 and have the following comments: 1. Fire Apparatus Access Roads: Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building, or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. The fire apparatus access road shall extend to within 150 feet of all portions of the facility or any portion of the exterior wall of the first story of the building as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the building. Comments: When access roads cannot be installed due to topography, waterways, nonnegotiable grades or other similar conditions, the chief is authorized to require additional fire protection as specified in the 2015 MSFC, Section 503. Because there is no fire apparatus access to the underground garage, class I standpipes have been accepted at each exterior exit and stairwell in the garage as an approved alternative. Access to the courtyard is restricted by a fence gate. o Provide an additional gate on the east side of the courtyard. o Provide sidewalks to both gates from both directions to Arbor Lakes Parkway. These must be maintained clear year round. o Gates shall open inward a full 180 degrees. 2. Fire sprinkler water mains shall be brought into a one-hour fire resistive room and shall have exterior access, a drain, an emergency light pack, and a sidewalk to the public way. If the water main enters into a basement level, the main may be extended to the first floor into a one-hour fire resistive room with the above requirements.

Maple Grove City Code, Chapter 18, Article III, Fire Prevention Code, FPB-Policy 3. Comments: There is no sprinkler riser room identified on the plan. Please identify the location. It should be easily accessible from the exterior. 3. Location of Fire Hydrants and General Requirements: Hydrants shall be located within a reasonable distance from driving surface; five feet minimum from curb (fire department access). If a hydrant is located in a safety island and cannot be located back five (5) feet from the curb, the hydrant shall be centered in the safety island. It is the fire department's preference to locate a fire hydrant along the driveway entrance, unless only one fire hydrant is being installed and needs to be located closer to the fire department connection. a. Fire hydrants and other fire protection equipment must not be obstructed or the view of the equipment blocked. A minimum clearance of five (5) feet shall be provided and maintained around fire hydrants and other fire protection equipment. The fullanticipated growth of the trees and shrubs must be considered when planting. A five (5) foot clearance must be provided when the landscaping reaches maturity. Any landscaping planted should be placed so it will meet the future clearance requirements at maturity. Maple Grove City Code, Chapter 18, Article III, Fire Prevention Code, Section 18-82.
