     By January 1, 2004, every high rise building owner must establish and maintain an emergency evacuation plan for occupants of the building who have a disability and who have notified the owner of their need for assistance. The evacuation plan must be established even if the owner has not been notified of a need for evacuation assistance by an occupant of the building who has a disability. As used in this Act, “high rise building” means any building 80 feet or more in height. The owner is responsible for maintaining and updating the plan as necessary to ensure that the plan continues to comply with the provisions of this Act.
