I am reviewing the apartment building in a tourist area. 5 apartments with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a full kitchen. They are calling it R2, which the IBC says it’s for occupants are primarily permanent in nature. They will be putting in Type B accessible units. On their response of asking to show how at least one mailbox complies with ICC A117.1 (accessibility) they said there will be no mailboxes because the units will be used for short-term occupancy.
Since they are short term shouldn’t they be R-1 where the IBC says the occupants are primarily transient in nature?
