  Do any of you have a policy or practice with regard to residential developments having 100 or more units (not hi-rise but single family/low rise/etc) and you require 2 access points. In RH we have a Standard Practice reflecting NFPA 1411 recommending 2 access points for developments over 100 units and would like to see what other municipalities have in place?

  Hi Vince,
  
  Here in Perth, we do not currently have anything in place. I’d actually asked my CBO about this a while ago now as another FPO brought it to me. To his understanding, there are no regulations that specifically speak to requirement to have multi-access (although he readily admits it’s good practice). I’m curious to see what others come back with.
