After reviewing the proposed site plan, I do not believe we can authorize the use of restrooms in the Administrative
Building for this project. Section 403.3.3 of The Florida Plumbing Code requires restrooms to be within 500 feet of the
workers location. It does not appear this project meets that standard. In addition, here are a couple other comments:
The existing manufacturing portion does not appear to have bathrooms, are they using the Admin building?
We size bathroom requirements based on occupant load, meaning, the restrooms in the admin building were probably
sized based on a 5,000 sq ft business occupancy
The occupant load for the new building will exceed the number of facilities on site, most likely
The occupant load for the current arrangements may exceed the allowable based on the code
We may need restrooms in the new structure capable of handling the load from the 2 manufacturing buildings
Will the Health Department approves septic for this facility or require connection to a (water and) sewer main?
Please let me know if you have additional questions.

The County is OPEN for business. The Building Department is operating in a new location,
just a few feet from the main lobby, at the SW corner of the building (formerly the Utilities
Department). Look for the GREEN A-Frame signs. The hours of operation are Monday –
Friday from 8:00 am to 4:30 am. All staff is available by email or phone.
Please be safe during these unprecedented times while we do our best to help the community
