Mr. and Mrs. Elwyn Coulter
4487 County Road 233
Rifle, CO 81650
Subject: Bedroom egress windows at home at 14500 County Road 217 in
Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Coulter:
In response to my phone conversations with you and the letter received
from your attorney, Mr. Thomas Stuver I requested a written interpretation
from the International Conference of Building Officials ( I.C.B.O.) regarding
this issue.
The response that I received from I.C.B.O. addressed only the removal of
the window panels without the use of separate tools and did not address
other points that I consider to be germane to the question regarding the
intent and purpose of the code.
In order to not further encumber your construction project by continuing
the debate and in light of my correspondence with I.C.B.O. I have made the
decision to permit the windows to remain as presently installed. However I
wish to make it clear that I do not consider these windows to be
appropriate rescue or egress windows complying with the intent and
purpose of the code.
This letter serves to advise you of my position, and to notify you that all
liabilities associated with these windows I consider to have been assumed
by you, your contractor and your legal counsel.
If you have questions regarding this matter please contact me. Thank you
for your communication on the matter.
Sincerely,
Art Hougland

Re: Elwyn and Frances Coulter
Garfield County Building Code Standards
Dear Don:
We previously discussed this matter by telephone. I am
representing the Coulters in the matter of the issues which have
arisen as the result of utilization of 4' x 3' sliding windows in
the residence they are building east of Rifle Mountain Park in
Garfield County.
As I understand it, the County Building Department has indicated
that the windows presently installed by the Coulters' builder in
their home do not comply with the 1988 Uniform Building Code.
After discussing this matter with the Coulters, and reviewing their
plans and the pertinent provisions of the Code, I believe that the
dispute that has arisen results, in part, from an erroneous
interpretation of the Code, as applied to the Coulters' situation.
The Coulters have installed five 4' x 3' sliding windows in
bedrooms in the second level of the house. Those windows are wood
framed windows having no center bar. The Coulters advised me that
the windows may be removed from the inside without the use of
special knowledge, tools, or effort resulting in a 9.92 square foot
clear openable area. ���
We believe these windows meet the requirements for exits and
emergency escapes, as set forth in Section 1204 of the 1988 Uniform
Building Code. That section provides, in pertinent part:
1. The unit shall be operable from the inside to provide a
full clear opening without the use of separate tools.
2. All escapes or rescue windows shall have a minimum net
clear openable area of 5.7 square feet.
Don DeFord
October 14, 1993
Page 2
The Code further elaborates that even bars, grills, grates and
similar devices may be installed on windows provided those devices
have release mechanisms which allow them to be opened from the
inside without the use of a key or special knowledge or effort.
Certainly, the five windows installed in the upper story of the
Coulters' residence afford emergency egress in excess of the
standards which Section 1204 attempts to implement. On behalf of
the Coulters, I am requesting that staff give consideration to the
manner in which these windows are constructed and approve their use
in the Coulter residence. If this dispute can be resolved on this
basis, the 4' x 3' aluminum framed sliding windows which are
utilized at the lower level and which do have a center bar, can be
replaced with the easy to remove wood sliders and the Coulters'
residential construction may proceed without substantial alteration
in the building frame and exterior.
As I indicated to you in our telephone conversation, it is the
Coulters' contention that the plan elevations which were approved
by the Garfield County Building Department do display sliding 4' x
3' window pairs in each of the elevations. We submit that it is
appropriate for the County to accommodate the Coulters by accepting
the resolution proposed herein.
Very trul y•.rs,
Tt jn. uver

Mr. and Mrs. Elwyn Colter
4487 County Road 233
Rifle, CO 81650
Subject: Bedroom egress windows at home at 14500 County Road 217 in
Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr, and Mrs, Colter:
On September 30, 1993 a framing inspection of the home under
construction off County Road 217 was conducted by Inspector Don Owens
and me.
During this inspection it was discovered that one window in each bedroom
did not meet escape or rescue requirements as required under the 1988
UBC (Uniform Building Code) Section 1204 adopted by Garfield County.
The windows did not meet the required minimum net clear opening of 5.7
sq. ft. This is not a new requirement and has been a building code
requirement for the last twenty years.
This deficiency was pointed out to Mr. Jim Wilson your building contractor
and we discussed possible solutions to the problem. One suggestion was to
increase the height of the window by lowering the sill of the rough opening
and providing a sliding window that would meet the requirements of UBC
Section 1204. Another solution was discussed, this involved the
replacement of the window with another type that would meet the
requirements of UBC Section 1204. One of these discussed was a moveable
complying casement window with a smaller fixed glass window in the same
frame that would fit the existing rough opening.
Phone conversations with you showed that increasing the size of the rough
opening was not acceptable to you. You also said that you believed that no
other complying window would fit the existing rough opening.
This week I made a visit to some window suppliers to check on the
availability of windows that comply with the code and fit the existing
rough opening with minimum adjustments. I found two suppliers that can
provide such a window. One window would be an opening casement with
an adjacent fixed glass, . the other window would be what is known as a
french casement window and both panels would swing outward with no
mullion separating the clear space.
I spoke with you this morning, Mrs. Colter and offered to provide you with
the names of the suppliers and contact persons. You made it clear that you
1
were not interested in this information,
The code requirements for escape and rescue windows are adopted by
Garfield County and it is not within my authority to approve windows that
do not comply with this code. Windows complying with UBC Section 1204
will be required before final inspection or issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy for this house.
Please contact me if you have any questions. I am looking forward to your
cooperation on this issue. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Art Hougland
