Fire access and code compliance on fraternity row

Oxford

Summary

The proposed 12-foot driveway can't fit the 20-foot ladder truck access the Ohio Fire Code requires, and the old 1930s house isn't sprinklered. The applicant has agreed to add sprinklers and fire alarms, which commissioners and neighbors called a major safety win.
