Inspection Report On Saturday March 19'b 2016 between 0930 and 1230 Hrs., a standard Fire and Life Safety inspection was conducted on the property, and buildings associated with said property, at 2810 NE Loop 286 / aka Genes Flea market. The following report is a summary of this inspection. General to the property: The fire department access roads (Fire Lanes) that are required at this location do not exist. Where roads or drives do exist there is no clearly defined access differentiated from the parking area. This results in an extra life safety hazard to pedestrians on the property. The design of these roads does not meet the requirement for fire department access roads. The fire department access to any structure on the property has to be such that any portion of a structure can be reached in an approved type measurement distance of 150 feet from the apparatus. Overall the access roads are to narrow, may not support fire department apparatus in all weather conditions, do not have at every turn the proper turning radiuses, lack turn arounds, and are unmarked as fire lanes. Thus resulting in apparent, and commonly blocked by parked vehicles, no fire department access to some structures. There is no water supply to this property in the form of fire hydrants. The nearest hydrant to the west is over 500 feet to the drive at the loop. The nearest hydrant to the east is between 400 and 500 feet to the property, however to access this hydrant you have to cross the property of a neighboring business which is not allowed and disqualifies this as an accessible hydrant. According to IFC 2006, and using just the Main building at the south of the property
