Mr. Vena referred to Sheet A-1 — Proposed Ground Floor Plan (Peter Ricci, A.LA.). Mr. Vena said interior stairs would be installed from the first floor to the second floor and the stairs would provide access to the lower basement level. Mr. Weston said the drawing did nat show the staircase properly. Mr. Gurland said the staircase plan is a very critical matter. He asked that the applicant submit proper plans, and he would not accept the Application without them. Mr. Weston said the Application was for interior renovation only, but it was necessary for all final plans to indicate proper means of ingress and egress. Mr. Klein said the current plans indicated the exterior fire escape and did not indicate elevations. Mr. Vena said all final plans would indicate proper means of ingress and egress.
