Mixed hazard classes under one roof
A production building with a solvent or paint area needs different coverage in that zone than in the rest of the space. Buildings that look well covered overall fail on the zone.

Fire Extinguisher Service in San Leandro.
San Leandro mixes food manufacturing with downtown retail, so a single portfolio can need high-count industrial coverage in one building and Class K in another — and both get inspected by the county, not the city.
Authority having jurisdiction
Alameda County Fire Department
San Leandro has contracted fire protection to the Alameda County Fire Department since 1995, and ACFD also provides fire code administration for the city. Your inspection and your correction notice come from the county, not from a San Leandro department.

Questions
What San Leandro operators ask about this.
Who inspects extinguishers in San Leandro?
The Alameda County Fire Department. San Leandro has contracted fire protection to ACFD since 1995, and the county also handles fire code administration for the city — so your inspector is a county inspector, not a city one. The code is identical; the department and the programme are not.
Our building stores solvents in one area. Does that need different extinguishers?
Usually yes. Flammable liquids are Class B, and a zone that stores or uses them typically needs coverage suited to that hazard on top of ordinary coverage elsewhere. It is a common gap in San Leandro production buildings because the property as a whole looks covered.
How many units does a commissary kitchen need?
More than a restaurant of the same floor area, because the hazard is concentrated and the cook line is longer. We count it on a walk-through rather than estimating from square footage.
