Mr. Downing explained that the 0ity of Santa Barbara had

to assist our work. One of the first things done in
order to meet the situation was to call the Council
together and pass an emergency resolution to the effect
that the Mayor and City Council be empowered to take
charge of the Police Force and all City Employees for all
purposes deemed necessary andto expend any sums of money
as in their Judgment might seem necessary.

cribing conditions in Southern California and asking for
$750,000 from the Recc~struction Finance Corporation, the
plan beirg to make loans to citizens at rate of interest
not to exceed three per cent.
Mr. Graham, President of the City Council of Santa Barbara
and Mr. Pope, Chief Building Inspector of Santa Barbara
were present. Mr. Graham explained that they had arrived
in Santa Aha this morning and during the day had been
busy assisting in the inspection c~ various buildings and
in his opinion and experience in the Santa Barbara dis-
aster of 1925, the buildings in Santa Aha are not in as
bad shape as first estimated. He suggested that our
building code be changed to ward against damage from
future earth disturbances. He advised that they would
offer suggestions with reference to changes in our build-
lng code which might appear severe and expensive but
would provide safety for the future. He offered any
assistance possible from Santa Barbara and extended greet-
ings from the Mayor and entire citizenry of that City.
Mr. Pope, Chief Building Inspector of Santa Barbara
expressed his appreciation of being called to Santa Aha.
He told of the inspections of buildings du~ing the day
and advised that he found many buildings that were not
constructed to withstand certain force from earth shocks
and recommended that proper anchorage be put in at this
time which would be a safeguard in the long run. Requeste.
support of the City Officials and cooperation in demoli-
tion to prevent further damage and suggested that repairs
be made as soon as possible.
Mayor Witmer explained that Inspection had been made of
about two thirds of the business district but before any
business is allowed to be opened an inspection of the
fire walls must be made.
On motion of Trustee HasenJaeger, seconded by Penn and car~
tied, the Chair was authorized to appoint a Committee. to
act as Assistant Field Inspectors and to work with the
City Building Inspector. The following were appointed:

work under the direction of Mr.
Preble and all inspection reports are to be turned in to
the ~ailding Inspector,s Office and not given to the
property owner. This request is made in order that it
will not appear to the owner that the contractor inspector
is seeking a Job.
Mr. Markel made statement for contractors that each and
everyone would serve as soon as needed and without any
pay whatsoever.
City Attorney Downing advised that it was proposed to
adopt an emergency ordinance amending our present building
6ode along the lines as recommended by Mr. Pope of Santa
Barbara. A portion of this ordinance was read whiah
requires the installati,on of bond stone in the reconstruc-
tion work and the erection of all new buildings. Mr. Pope
explained that the idea of bond stone is to form a con-
tinuous bond where load is borne on wall so as to stiffen
the wall against lateral strain. ~In his inspection today
he noticed any ntunber of walls which did not have suffi-
cient stiffening to withstand load of falling roof. He
pointed out in two instances buildings where bond stones
had been included in the erection and that no damage had
resulted to these buildings.
Mr. Wells asked if this ordinance would be positive or
would be flexi~le to fit conditions. Mr. Pope explained
that bond stones should be required at bearing level of
all buildings, however it would not be necessary to tear
down entire fire wall to reach bearing level but in
repair work bmxd stones should be placed in that portion
of bulldln~ that it is necessary to rebuild.
Mr. Winbigler asked if owners of buildings should await
an official inspection before starting repairs. Mr.
Preble recommended to Council that property owners be
authorized to demolish all loose construction and during
time of demolition inspection would be made and then
owner would be advised as to what repairs should be made.

Mr. Preble estimated that all of the main business distric
of Santa Aha could be covered by the inspectors within
two days. Mr. Graham suggested that building department
be informed bf any proposed demolition also that old brick
torn down be reclaimed by the owners and used in their
reconstruction work.
Mr. Sanford, Secretary of the Builders' Exchange, stated
that the exchange recommended official inspection on all
Jobs and are willing to cooperate to the fullest extent.
Mr. Markel endohsed statement of Mr. Graham that bond
stone should be placed at definite bearing place on
building.
Mr. Zerman asked if after debris was removed would it be
possible to go ahead and do business. He was advised that
all business would be opened in a short time - as soon as
all dangerous debrbls and loose walls are removed and that
would only be a matter of a few hours after the work
started.
In response to question of Mr. Tway, representing Business
Men's Association, the Mayor advised that practically all
business will be opened by Tuesday and some business
will be opened tomorrow (Monday).
In response to a question Mr. Graham advised that addi-
tional cost for installation of bond stone.was only from
five to eight per cent more than straight brick - and at
any rate additional cost would not be more than l0 percent
Mr. Downing read several sections from the Santa Barbara
building ordinance with suggestion that they be included
in our revised building code.
Mr. McMillan advised that in many buildings erected before
present building ordinance was in effect that 8" fire walls
had been permitted, however, the present building code
calls for 12" fire walls. Mr. Pope advised that 8" fire
walls are not allowed in Santa Barbara and that the mini-
mum height is 24" and maximum of 30". Fire walls are also
eliminated wherever possible on the front of buildings in
the business district and that sloping tile is preferred.
He also advised that in some cases they allowed bond stone
to be on same level as bottom of Joists. On all new worE,
however, bond stone is required to go below bottom of
Joists.
Judge Tucker asked information from Santa Barbara repre-
sentatives as to their opinion, from their experience,
whether we might expect more severe earthquakes. He was
advised that no more severe shocks should be anticipated
in this part of the Country.
Resident's were advised to take care of fallen chimneys as
soon as possible. Judge Tucker suggested that the employ-
ment of men to handle rehabilitation work should be taken
care of through the Emergency Unemployment Relief Associa-
tion which is now functioning, and. that local unemployed
people should be given preference in the work.
Mr. Willson in the audience brought out the fact that any-
one who employed labor independently would be responsible
for any injuries occurring to laborers in the course of
their employment unless they carried compensation insurance
Mr. Markel suggested that City handle clearing of debris
from sidewalks. Mr. Hasenjaeger advised that debris, such
as bricks, etc. really belonged to the property owners and
in many cases would be salvaged by them and used in recon-
struction work.
Mr. HasenJaeger brought up question of finances, stating
that he would not be willing to endorse an ordinance that
would put a very great cost on the property owners in their
~reconstruction work, however if the requirement bf bond
stone would not raise the cost to a great degree he would
favor such installation.
Mr. Wells suggested that more study be given proposed
ordinance covering reconstruction work.
The Mayor advised that further study would be given the
proposals before passage of the ordinance. He also advised
that he was declaring special holidays for Monda~ and Tuesd
