Six of one half dozen of the other. The location I am su has
the advanta of bein on the preferred side of the truck for the fire
department. The can connect either side but the prefer the driver
side. The other advanta is that the can attack the fire from the
West.
The disadvanta is an extra 100 feet of 6 inch pipe and smaller island.

Neither Buildin is planned to have a fire sprinkler s
The followin is a summar of the current closest h
Bur Kin H is north east of BK and must cross Neal Avenue. The
bur kin h is a direct shoot to the KFC buildin at 300 feet it
covers the east 114 of KFC at 400 feet it reaches the northwest corner.
AT 300 feet it does not reach Taco John's and it is has to g o around the
BK buildin At 400 feet it could reach the middle of Taco John's.
Il Video H is South East of HV must cross Neal Avenue and
around the corner of the Holl Video buildin At 300 feet it
reaches the ed of Taco John's. at 400 feet it reaches past Taco
1
John's. At 400 feet is short of KFC.
The TCF Hydrant is next to the bank building on the southeast corner.
At 300 feet it reach past Taco John's and almost reaches KFC. If Taco
John's was not in the way the 300 foot arc would hit the south west
- =er of KFC. At 400 feet it will reach around both ends of the KFC
ilding.
The Pony Express Hydrant is south west of the building and blocked by
the pond. Laying the hose around the pond would be by foot and would
require over 400 feet of hose. 400 feet of hose would reach the western
edge of the parking lot.
Possible Hydrant Location.
I am suggesting that a new hydrant be located on the island north west
of Taco John. This location will provide coverage of the around all of
KFC and Taco John's and will provide coverage for TCF from opposite
direction of the hydrant that is at TCF.

radius of the TCF, Hollywood Video and Burger king Hydrants
