Box 66 <br /> Crystal Bay,Minnesota 55323 <br /> Re: Orono Ind. School Dist. #278 Eos#92161 <br /> Orono Student Center <br /> Dear Mr. Oman: <br /> This letter is a follow-up to the meeting that Brian McCarty of our office had with <br /> you on February 26, 1993 to discuss the Orono Student Center project. <br /> The existing building was recently purchased by Orono Ind. School Dist.#278 <br /> from the Orono Community Church. The Church's use of the building included <br /> A and E occupancies, both of which have previously been approved by the City <br /> of Orono. The A occupancy was approved under the original Conditional Use <br /> Permit in 1982. The E occupancy was approved under a Conditional Use Permit <br /> in 1987. Although there has been a change in the ownership of the building,the <br /> use of the building will continue under A and E occupancies. <br /> The proposed building addition(see enclosed floor plan) provides the required <br /> exits and required exit width independent from the existing building. No <br /> increase in exit load is intended to be imposed on the existing corridor. <br /> The existing corridor roof/ceiling is constructed of exposed steel bar joists and a <br /> wood roof deck. This does not meet the requirements for one-hour fire-resistive <br /> construction, even though the entire building is protected by a fire sprinkler <br /> system. The corridor walls do appear to be of one-hour construction,with <br /> labeled solid core doors in hollow metal frames and wire glass windows in steel <br /> frames. The condition of the existing corridor, and whether or not <br /> improvements might be required,was discussed with Vermayne Bertram of the <br /> Minnesota State Building Codes Division on February 8, 1993. <br /> EQI AI,OPPORTUNITY NEI OYER <br />
