The City Manager or designate may accept alternate methods of compliance than those prescribed herein provided it can be demonstrated the alternate is at least equivalent to that prescribed in this subchapter in terms of implementing the general purposes of this subchapter. For example, in many instances the manufacturer’s set up installation instructions may substitute for prescriptions found in this subchapter. Some unconventional construction, not specifically covered by this subchapter, may require plans stamped by an architect or engineer licensed in the State of Kentucky. The City Manager or designate may afford a certain amount of latitude from the methods of compliance presented herein through a variance process. The amount of relief afforded by means of variance shall not exceed 10% of the prescribed measurement.
