A-802.2.2 Accessibility Advisory Board

Philadelphia Administrative Code > 8 Appeals and Variances > A-802 Technical Boards > A-802.2 Variances > A-802.2.2 Accessibility Advisory Board
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
Pursuant to the UCC, the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry (Secretary) has the exclusive power to grant modifications and extensions of time and decide issues of technical infeasibility under Chapter 11 (Accessibility) of the Philadelphia Building Code and other accessibility requirements contained in or referenced by the technical codes for individual projects.

UpCodes note: Section A-802.2.2 was amended by Bill No. 180175. The bill was approved on June 6, 2018.

A-802.2.2.1 Variance Requests

Pursuant to the UCC, the Secretary will review all applications for modifications or variances of Chapter 11 (Accessibility) of the Philadelphia Building Code and any other accessibility requirements contained in or referenced by the Philadelphia Building Construction and Occupancy Code. The Pennsylvania Accessibility Advisory Board will advise the Secretary whether modification or variance should be granted or whether compliance is technically infeasible.

A-802.2.2.2 Code Official's Decisions

Pursuant to the UCC, the Secretary will hear appeals from decisions of code officials; recommend modifications or variances, or extensions of time. An appeal of a decision of a code official may be based only on a claim that the true intent of the UCC or the Building Construction and Occupancy Code was incorrectly interpreted, the UCC does not apply, or an equivalent form of construction is to be used.

A-802.2.2.3 Filing of Appeal

An owner or owner's agent shall file an appeal regarding accessibility provisions with the Pennsylvania Accessibility Advisory Board on a form provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry.

A-802.2.2.4 Stay of Enforcement

An appeal to the Pennsylvania Accessibility Advisory Board will automatically suspend an action to enforce an order to correct except where there is an unsafe building, structure or equipment.
