    6         (20) The Florida Building Code may not require more than
    7  one fire service access elevator in residential occupancies
    8  where the highest occupiable floor is less than 420 feet above
    9  the level of fire service access and all remaining elevators are
   10  provided with Phase I and II emergency operations. Where a fire
   11  service access elevator is required, a 1 hour fire-rated fire
   12  service access elevator lobby with direct access from the fire
   13  service access elevator is not required when the fire service
   14  access elevator opens into an exit access corridor which can be
   15  no less than six feet wide for its entire length that is a
   16  minimum of 150 square feet with the exception of door openings,
   17  and has a minimum 1 hour fire rating with three quarter hour
   18  fire and smoke rated openings; and during a fire event the fire
   19  service access elevator is pressurized and floor-to-floor smoke
   20  control is provided. However, where transient residential
   21  occupancies occur at floor levels more than 420 feet above the
   22  level of fire service access, a 1 hour fire-rated fire service
   23  access elevator lobby with direct access from the fire service
   24  access elevator is required. The requirement for a second fire
   25  service access elevator is not considered to be a part of the
   26  Florida Building Code, and therefore, does not take effect until
   27  July 1, 2016.
