In the city of los angeles, for apartment buildings, can a trash shoot be accessed inside the stairwell? Are there safety features that may be required?
 
New building???

The actual chute door is in the stairwell???

If so should not be, on fairly new construction


How many floor building??
 
Not sure about LA but IBC 1022.4 would prohibit it in an exit enclosure.
