RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Introduce Ordinance No. /\/S-/G 5 ADOPTING the Uniform Building Code, 1988
Edition, and set the matter for a public hearing on ?f & 6 l 1q q G .
ITEM EXPLANATION
Staff is proposing adoption of the Uniform Building Code, 1988 Edition, on January 2,
1990 to replace the similar 1985 Edition now in effect. This will bring the City
regulation into conformity with the State. The 1988 Code contains significant changes
concerning hazardous occupancies, seismic design, roofing, skylights and fire sprinklers.
The amendments in this ordinance increase the expiration period for both building
permits and plan review, and retain past amendments to former codes such as fire
retardant roofs for residential occupancies.
Government Code Section 50022.3 requires that this matter be introduced and
subsequently scheduled for a public hearing for adoption of the code and its associated
standards.
FISCAL MACE
The 1988 Uniform Building code contains no increase in fees.

ITEM EXPLANATION
Staff is proposing adoption of the Uniform Building Code, 1988 Edition, on January 2,

The amendments in this ordinance increase the expiration period for both building
permits and plan review, and retain past amendments to former codes such as fire
retardant-roofs for residential occupancies.
Government Code Section 50022.3 requires that this matter be introduced and
subsequently scheduled for a public hearing for adoption of the code and its associated
standards.

The 1988 Uniform Building code contains no increase in fees.
