Grounds for waiver.


10. Grounds for Waiver: The Florida Building Commission may grant waivers of Florida-specific accessibility requirements upon a determination of unnecessary, unreasonable or extreme hardship. Please describe how this project meets the following hardship criteria. Explain all that would apply for consideration of granting the waiver.


NOTE:**




We are respectfully requesting a vertical accessibility waiver based on technical infeasibility and disproportionate costs. Due to the geometry of the existing building and nature of the project, we suggest that it is technically infeasible and with disproportionate costs to provide interior vertical accessibility for expansion in to a portion of the adjacent tenant.
