This egress issue was set for a hearing before the DPW Commission in February 2017. The owner withdrew his appeal when he documented his effort to change the interior egress path and eliminated an interior locked area.
The property owner's plan was approved and the city building official found a provision of the building code which permits ladders under certain circumstances.
Our housing code states:
++++++++++++++++++++++
10-95 Means of Egress
(b) Ladders or any other exit method which does not comply with the requirements of the building code as adopted by the city in Section 8-2 are not an acceptable means of egress and shall be removed or augmented by an acceptable means of egress.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
If you are an occupant of the building and would like us to walk through the conditions on site with you please contact the director - Bill Ward at (802) 865-7510 or wward@Burlington.gov
