MEETING DATE: March 16, 2022
PREPARED BY: Fire Chief
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution accepting the Lodi Fire Department's annual compliance
report as mandated by Senate Bill No. 1205
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Senate Bill No. 1205 mandates that every city fire department shall
report annually to its administering authority on its compliance with
the Health and Safety Code, Sections 13146.2 and 13146.3. The bill
states that the report shall occur when the administering authority discusses its annual budget, or at
another time determined by the administering authority.
The California State Fire Marshal mandates that certain occupancy types be inspected annually. These
mandated occupancy types include private and public schools, hotels, motels, lodging houses and
apartment/condominium buildings. The purpose of annual fire inspections is to mitigate known hazards,
reduce risk to the community, and ensure reasonable compliance with the California Fire Code. The
Lodi Fire Department performs the mandated inspections, in addition to other inspections at local
businesses, as part of the Department's prevention program. In 2021, the Lodi Fire Department
inspected 100% of the state mandated annual inspections within the calendar year.
California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.2 mandates that the local fire department inspect all
hotels, motels and lodging houses once annually. The Lodi Fire Department inspected twenty-one (21)
out of twenty-one (21) hotels, motels and lodging houses during the 2021 calendar year.
California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.2 mandates that the local fire department inspect all
apartments once annually. The California Building Code also specifies that condominiums should be
considered apartments for building code application. An apartment shall consist of three or more
attached units, and excludes all duplex and townhome buildings as defined by code. The Lodi Fire
Department inspected four hundred eighty (480) out of four hundred eighty (480)
apartment/condominium complexes during the 2021 calendar year.
