Emergency Planning by Occupancy Type

To help ensure the safety of our community, we provide Emergency Planning guidance tailored to specific occupancy types. These classifications—such as Assembly (A), Business (B), Educational (E), Institutional (I-2), Mercantile (M), and Residential (R-1, R-2, R-2.1)—reflect how buildings are used and the unique risks associated with each.

Each occupancy type has its own set of emergency planning considerations, including evacuation procedures, fire protection systems, occupant awareness, and staff responsibilities. By organizing our resources this way, we make it easier for property owners, managers, and occupants to find the information most relevant to their facility.

We encourage you to review the documents that apply to your occupancy type to better prepare for emergencies and maintain a safe environment for all.
