| 08/08/2022 | COT - FCOD - Fire Re-inspection | Completed | 04/8/2022 SWS- I re-inspected the building being used as a school. Some 2A10BC fire extinguishers have been installed near exits. Around a dozen smoke detectors have been istalled in some of the classrooms and coridoors. Paper,non luminous, non powered exit signs have been installed, Mr Aguirre has been iformed that these signs are not acceptable. On being allowed to inspect some previousely unseen parts of the buiding, a small classroom was discovered on the second floor. A large auditorium was discovered, being apprimately 10,000 sqaure feet, Mr Aguirre stated that they can have 400 people in there. This room has emergency lighting, but no fire alarm, sprinklers, exit signs or extinguishers. It has stage and organ. The stage curtain does not appear to be fire rated. There are two sets of double doors as the main entrance, the other side of the room has three smaller exits, sufficient for this occupancy. I told Mr Aguirre that the three smaller exits require iluminated exit signs and at least two 2A10BC extinguishers in the room. Looking through Tucson Pro, I can find no information on this buiding which was allegedly constructed in 1992. 08/08/22- SWS - I contacted DPSD, spoke with Yaritza Leon, she found older information on this premises including the Certificate of Occupancy. She is digitizing it and will send it to me hopefully by the end of this week. Speaking to Captain Janton, we have established that this building will certainly require a fire alarm system for A3 and E occupancies. We will determine more once the information comes from DPSD. |

| 08/24/2022 | COT - FCOD - Fire Re-inspection | Completed | SWS- 08/24/2022 Upon Ray Aguirre's request, I came by to clarify the contents of the 08/17/22 report. I confirmed that every classroom should have an exit leading directly to outside, otherwise a sprinkler system will be required. They have installed luminous signs and 2A10BC extinguishers in the classroom and assembly areas. The Stage curtain has been removed. A Gentleman who identified himself as Zen, who is a trustee of the church, accused me of harassing them. I responded that I am doing as told by my Captain, and that I am just doing the reports and leg work. I informed them that I gave them a month to work out what they intend to do with the building. We are waiting on contact with Juan Garcia for a determination on the occupancy. I informed them that our department believes them to be an A3/E occupancy and as such they will require a fire alarm system. Should that be the case I told them they will be given sufficient time to get the work done. It will require permits, plans and a certified fire alarm company to carry out the work. |

| 08/17/2022 | COT - FCOD - Fire Re-inspection | Completed | 8/17/2022- SWS - I reviewed the files on this premises from 1975 to 1995. The plans appear to match the premises as viewed on Google Earth, all work appears to have been permitted. Mr Aguirre has not approached the city DPSD for adetermination. I listed and quoted the fire alarm requirement for E occupancies in chapter 11. I also quoted the potential need for sprinklers, with a change of use from A/3 to A/3 / E. The stage curtain that was not fire resistant has been removed. Tony Smith and Captain Janton both agreed that there is no need for a fire watch at this premises. I dropped the report off to mr Aguirre and discuused it. |
