Intent
Intent 1: 
To limit the probability that a hose station will only be placed on one side of a horizontal exit between buildings, which could lead to the need to open a door between the buildings to bring a hose from a hose station on the other side, which could lead to the spread of fire from a building to another building, which could lead to harm to persons.
