APPEALS: (a) APPEAL NO. 82-11-01 - Lou's Gym, 25 Naples The applicant stated that the use is not in the same category as a Gym as the memberships are open to professional body builders only, and that there are 17 spaces for body building equipment. There are noactivities that are normally associated with a Gym. The proposed use is not the same as an A3 occupancy, but more closely related to a B2 occupancy. Based on the actual use and the actual occupant load, staff recommended approval of the request. (Board Member Kaya arrived at 5:04) MSUC (Emmons/Lee) to grant the appeal. Fire Marshal Monsell opposed the appeal inasmuch as he felt it qualifies as a Group A3 occupancy. MSUC (Lee/Emmons) to reconsider the appeal.

BOARD OF APPEALS AND ADVISORS MINUTES OF DECEMBER 13, 1982 Page 2 (b) CASE NO. 82-l1-02 - 584 E Street Director of Building and Housing Grady told the Commission that this appeal is based on Section 2-l05(b) of Title 24, State of California. The appli- cant is doing minor remodel work for access into a bathroom, but access into the building does not meet the requirements for handicap persons. However, the repairs are under the $50,000 as spelled out in Title 24 and would be an unreasonable hardship to require access ramps to the building due to the addition of the bathroom. MSUC (Kaya/Winchell) to grant the appeal as sufficient evidence has been presented to constitute an unreasonable hardship. (c) CASE NO. 82-11-03 - 40 North 4th Avenue The applicant (Target Stores) is requesting that exposed wiring be per- mitted below the 100 year plain datum for electrical devices. Director of Building and Housing Grady explained that the Target Store operation will be the same as the former Fed Mart operation and the building was constructed prior to flood plain requirements. Mr. Grady met with Federal representatives of the flood plain regulations and was informed that exist- ing buildings do not have to meet flood plain regulations, except for new additions and major remodels consisting of more than 50% of the valuation of the building. Therefore, staff recommended approval of the request. MSUC (Burke/Lee) to grant the appeal due to the fact that this is a con- tinuation of the same type retail sales and the building is existing, and it does not appear that additional hazards would be created. 3. NEW BUSINESS: _. Chairman Winkelman told the Commission that they received an invitation to attend a Retirement Dinner Reception honoring City Manager Lane F. Cole on December 30, 1982. 4.
