(A) Whenever the use or occupancy of a building or part thereof, has been changed from the use or occupancy for which the building was originally designed or intended to be used, the Chief Building Official shall determine and establish the required fire-protective features. Except as he may otherwise determine, such fire-protective features shall conform with the provisions of the National Fire Protection Association.
(B) Notwithstanding any other provision of this PMC, the Chief Building Official shall have the power and authority to require more rigid fire-protective features or special fire protective features where, in his opinion, special situations of construction, design, occupancy, fire hazard or other factors require such safeguards in the interest of public safety.
