AGENDA TITLE: Public Hearing to adopt the Uniform Codes as approved by the State of California
MEETING DATE: August 18, 1999
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council conduct a Public Hearing to adopt the following
Uniform Codes as approved by the State of California:
1. Uniform Building Code — 1997
2. Uniform Plumbing Code — 1997
3. Uniform Mechanical Code — 1997
4. Uniform Housing Code —1997
5. Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings —1997
6. National Electrical Code - 1996
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Uniform Codes for construction are published every three years. The
State of Califomia adopts these Codes by reference and requires Cities
and Counties to adopt the same within six months. This process
assures uniformity between jurisdictions throughout the State.
The Uniform Codes are dedicated to the development of minimum standards, which protect property and human
life. The Uniform Building Code guarantees to the purchaser of a property that the structure is constructed
adequately to resist earthquake, wind, rain and fire, and will maintain its property value if properly maintained. The
Uniform Plumbing, Mechanical and National Electrical Codes provide for sanitation, comfort, convenience and life
safety in their respective fields. The Uniform Housing Code provides minimum standards for human habitation and
the Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings allows the City to deal with unsafe buildings by either
repair or demolition.
In addition to the Uniform Codes, the Building Division is also charged with the enforcement of the State handicap
and energy regulations.
Changes to the Codes are processed each year and published every three years in a form permitting ready
adoption by local communities. Anyone may propose changes to the codes. These changes are carefully
reviewed by code committees and are to become part of the code. These meetings allow the free exchange of
views leading to changes, which are responsive to the concerns of the construction industry, design professionals
and building officials.
As the Council will recall, staff presented an overview of the codes at a shirtsleeve meeting. It was requested that
we make ourselves available to local developers for a review of the changes proposed. We have made contact
with a number of the companies doing business in the City as well as the Building Industry Association. While no
one has taken us up on our offer, we will continue to provide that service as requested.
FUNDING: None required.
