to come before the board. <br /> Giles Schurman—That is what happens in Broomfield. It does not go any further than the <br /> Building Official. <br /> Greg Cullison—In Westminster you have to go before the Board of Appeals. <br /> Ray Schlott—I wouldn't suggest that if someone says anything other than it is an engineered <br /> system,not that it is in conformance to the IPC. <br /> I though there was a revision to the ordinance,relative to sizing,that gave you some latitude as <br /> far as fixture units in making a determination whether it be 3/4, and inch? <br /> Thomas Talboom—There was an amendment which is not on the books any more. It related to <br /> low flow fixtures when they first came out. Where if you had a low flow fixture than the <br /> Building Official could reduce, by up to one third,the fixture points. <br /> Ray Schlott—That went away with the IPC? <br /> Thomas Talboom—Yes. Low flow was incorporated into the fixture points. <br /> Ray Schlott—Do we not now have to remcorporate that m as a provision in adopting the 1997 <br /> UPC. <br /> Thomas Talboom—If we do something like that we have to amend the code. <br /> Ray Schlott—I think that we have to. <br /> Thomas Talboom—I think that is what the Council does not want. <br /> Ray Schlott—That has nothing to do with plumbing. <br /> Thomas Talboom—It does. What we did is amended table 4-1 to allow for a reduction of one <br /> third for low flow fixtures. <br /> Ray Schlott—We had that for the 1994 code. Can we not just carry that forward with the 1997 <br /> code. I don't think any eye brows would have been raised if we had gone to the 1997 code and <br /> left that part of the provision of the ordinance in. <br /> Thomas Talboom—Unfortunately we are going to be scrutinized by the union folks. <br /> Ray Schlott—I don't think they would care about that part of it. The City doesn't want to get <br /> involved in tearing up streets and putting in one inch taps if someone has a four bathroom <br /> 8 <br />
