Hi Priscilla,
I heard back from Symons and was able to close out their permit. Your permit number is FIRE26-0104 and the expected due date is 5/11/26.
I should have caught this when the plans were first submitted, but I was focused on sorting out the duplicate fire alarm plans. While reviewing your submittal, I noticed that the fire alarm system does not meet our mid-rise ordinance requirements for voice evacuation and smoke detection in the corridors. Please refer to the City of Oceanside Municipal Code here: Sec. 11.19. - Mid-rise buildings. | Code of Ordinances | Oceanside, CA | Municode Library.
You have the option to resubmit revised plans by 5/6; otherwise, we will proceed with reviewing the current set. We anticipate completing the review at the end of next week, likely on 5/7 or 5/8. If you plan to submit updated plans but do not expect to meet the 5/6 deadline, please let me know so I can inform the plans examiner and push the review back a few days.
Thank you,
Chelsey Gonzales

Good morning Chelsey,
Following up on the previous confusion regarding the designated fire alarm contractor, we would like to confirm that our submittal is the only active fire alarm permit under review for 1111 S Coast Hwy in Oceanside, 92054.
We have since confirmed with our client that Symons Fire Protection also submitted a fire alarm plan set. Based on this, could you please confirm that there are no duplicate or conflicting fire alarm permits currently in process, and that our plans will be the set moving forward for review?
Please let us know if you need any additional information from our end.
Thank you,

Hello,
I’mreaching out regarding the fire alarm plan submittal for 1111 S Coast Hwyin Oceanside, 92054. I have already received a set of fire alarm plan from Symons Fire Protection on 4/15/26.
Before I can proceed with checking in these plans, I will need confirmation from the general contractor regarding the designated fire alarm contractor for this project.
Thank you,
