Adopt a resolution of the City Council setting forth findings for required amendments, modifications and changes with respect to the local climatic, geographical and topographical conditions within the City of Santa Ana to the California Building, Residential, Green Standards, Electrical, Mechanical, Plumbing, Energy, and Fire Codes as amended by the State of California. 2. Adopt an ordinance amending Chapters 8 and 14 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code adopting the State Building Regulations, including the 2015 International Property Maintenance Code, the 2015 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code and the 2009 Uniform Solar Energy Code, and certain modifications and changes with respect to local climatic, geographical and topographical conditions with the City of Santa Ana to the California Building, Residential, Green Standards, Electrical, Mechanical, Plumbing, Energy, and Fire Codes as amended by the State of California. DISCUSSION The State's Health and Safety Code (Section 17958) mandates that the California Building Standards Commission adopt and publish the California Building Standard Code (Title 24 California Code of Regulations) every three years. The 2016 Edition of the California Code of Regulations Title 24, which incorporates the model codes, becomes effective statewide on January 1, 2017. This Ordinance would amend Santa Ana Municipal Code Sections by repealing references to the prior editions of the Construction Codes. The Construction Codes proposed for adoption by reference with amendments include the following: 75A -1 Resolution & Ordinance Adopting the Updated California and International Building and Fire Codes with Amendment and Requisite Findings November 15, 2016 Page 2 2016 California Building Code 2016 California Residential Code 2016 California Green Building Standards Code 2016 California Electrical Code 2016 California Mechanical Code 2016 California Plumbing Code 2016 California Energy Code 2016 California Fire Code 2016 California Existing Building Code 2015 International Property Maintenance Code 2015 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code 2009 Uniform Solar Energy Code The Planning & Building Agency and Orange County Fire Authority are recommending that certain changes and modifications be made to the 2016 Editions of the California Building, Residential, Green Standards, Plumbing, Mechanical, Electrical, Energy, Fire, and Existing Building Codes that are reasonably necessary due to local conditions in the City of Santa Ana. Other modifications are of an administrative or procedural nature and concern themselves with subjects that are not covered by the Codes or are reasonably necessary to safeguard life and property within the City of Santa Ana. There are a total of 98 findings in the Resolution which address three amendments to the Electrical Code, one amendment to the Mechanical Code, two amendments to the Plumbing Code, 58 amendments to the Fire Code, and five amendments to the Building Code (Exhibit 1 for Building and Exhibit 2 for Fire). STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #3 - Economic Development, Objective #3 (promote a solutions -based customer focus in all efforts to facilitate development and investment in the community), Strategy C (explore opportunities to encourage a business friendly environment within the city through the reduction of non - essential regulatory requirements, improved coordination between agencies for development review and addition of monetary incentives); Goal #5 — Community Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability, Objective #2 (expand opportunities for conservation and environmental sustainability), Strategy C (create a green building policy that incorporates sustainable concepts into residential and nonresidential uses; support demonstration projects and best practices). 75A -2 Resolution & Ordinance Adopting the Updated California and International Building and Fire Codes with Amendment and Requisite Findings November 15, 2016 Page 3 FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

The City Council hereby finds, determines, and declares as follows: A. Health and Safety Code Section 17958 provides that the City of Santa Ana shall adopt Ordinances and regulations imposing the same or modified or changed requirements as are contained in the regulations adopted by the State pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 17922. B. The State of California is mandated by Health and Safety Code Section 17922 to impose the same requirements as are contained in the most recent edition of the California Building Code, California Existing Building Code, the California Plumbing Code, the California Mechanical Code, California Energy Code, and the California Electrical Code (hereinafter referred to collectively as "Codes "). C. Health and Safety Code Section 17958.5(x) permits the City to make modifications or changes to the Codes, which are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic or topographic conditions. D. Health and Safety Code Section 17958.7 requires that the City Council, before making any modifications or changes to the Codes, shall make an express finding that such changes or modifications are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic or topographic conditions. Section 2: The Planning and Building Agency and the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) have recommended that changes and modifications be made to the Codes and have Exhibit 3 Resolution No. 2016 - Page 1 of 8 75A -17 advised that certain said changes and modifications to the California Building Code, 2016 Edition, the California Plumbing Code, 2016 Edition, the California Mechanical Code, 2016 Edition, the California Electrical Code, 2016 Edition, the California Existing Building Code, 2016 Edition, California Energy Code, 2016 Edition, and the California Fire Code, 2016 Edition, are reasonably necessary due to local conditions in the City of Santa Ana. Section 3. Amendments to the 2016 Edition of the California Building Code, the 2016 Edition of the California Residential Code, and the 2016 Edition of the California Fire Code as recommended by the Planning and Building Agency and the Orange County Fire Authority are hereby found to be reasonably necessary based upon the following findings: Climatic Conditions A. The jurisdiction of Santa Ana is located in a semi -arid Mediterranean type climate. It annually experiences extended periods of high temperatures with little or no precipitation. Hot, dry (Santa Ana) winds, which may reach speeds of 70 M.P.H. or greater, are also common to the area. These climatic conditions cause extreme drying of vegetation and common building materials. Frequent periods of drought and low humidity add to the fire danger. This predisposes the area to large destructive fires (conflagration). In addition to directly damaging or destroying buildings, these fires are also prone to disrupt utility services throughout the County. Obstacles generated by a strong wind, such as fallen trees, street lights and utility poles will greatly impact the response time to reach an incident scene. B. The climate alternates between extended periods of drought and brief flooding conditions. Flood conditions may affect the Orange County Fire Authority's ability to respond to a fire or emergency condition. Floods also disrupt utility services to buildings and facilities within the County. C. Water demand in this densely populated area far exceeds the quantity supplied by natural precipitation; and although the population continues to grow, the already -taxed water supply does not. California is projected to increase in population by nearly 10 million over the next quarter of a century with 50 percent of that growth centered in Southern California. Due to storage capacities and consumption, and a limited amount of rainfall future water allocation is not fully dependable. This necessitates the need for additional and on -site fire protection features. D. These dry climatic conditions and winds contribute to the rapid spread of even small fires originating in high- density housing or vegetation. These fires spread very quickly and create a need for increased levels of fire protection. The added protection of fire sprinkler systems and other fire protection features will supplement normal fire department response by Resolution No. 2016 - Page 2 of 8 75A -18 providing immediate protection for the building occupants and by containing and controlling the fire spread to the area of origin. Fire sprinkler systems will also reduce the use of water for firefighting by as much as 50 to 75 percent. II. Topographical conditions A. Natural; slopes of 15 percent or greater generally occur throughout the foothills of Orange County. The elevation change cause by the hills creates the geological foundation on which communities with Orange County is built and will continue to build. With much of the populated flatlands already built upon, future growth will occur steeper slopes and greater constraints in terrain. B. Traffic and circulation congestion is an artificially created, obstructive topographical condition, which is common throughout Orange County. C. These topographical conditions combine to create a situation, which places fire department response time to fire occurrences at risk, and makes it necessary to provide automatic on -site fire - extinguishing systems and other protection measures to protect occupants and property. III. Geological Conditions The Orange County region is a densely populated area that has buildings constructed over and near a vast and complex network of faults that are believed to be capable of producing future earthquakes similar or greater in size that the 1994 Northridge and the 1971 Sylmar earthquakes. Earthquake faults run along the northeast and southwest boundaries of Orange County. The Newport- Inglewood Fault, located within Orange County was the source of the destructive 1933 Long Beach earthquake (6.3 magnitude) which took 120 lives and damaged buildings in an area from Laguna Beach to Marina Del Rey to Whittier. In December 1989, another earthquake occurred in the jurisdiction of Irvine at an unknown fault line. Regional planning for reoccurrence of earthquakes is recommended by the State of California, Department of Conservation. A. Previous earthquakes have been accompanied by disruption of traffic flow and fires. A severe seismic event has the potential to negatively impact any rescue or fire suppression activities because it is likely to create obstacles similar to those indicated under the high wind section above. With the probability of strong aftershocks there exists a need to provide increased protection for anyone on upper floors of buildings. The October 17, 1989, Santa Cruz earthquake resulted in one major fire in the Marina District (San Francisco). When combined with the 34 other fires locally and over 500 responses, the department was taxed to its fullest Resolution No. 2016 - Page 3 of 8 75A -19 capabilities. The Marina fire was difficult to contain because mains supplying water to the district burst during the earthquake. This situation creates the need for both additional fire protection and automatic on -site fire protection for building occupants. State Department of Conservation noted in their 1988 report (Planning Scenario on a Major Earthquake on the Newport - Inglewood Fault Zone, page 59), "unfortunately, barely meeting the minimum earthquake standards of building codes places a building on the verge of being legally unsafe." B. Road circulation features located throughout the County also make amendments reasonably necessary. Located through the County are major roadways, highways and flood control channels that create barriers and slow response times. Hills, slopes, street and storm drain design accompanies with occasional heavy rainfall, causes roadway flooding and landslides and at times may make an emergency access route impassable. There are areas in Orange County that naturally have extended emergency response times that exceed the 5 minute goal. C. Soils throughout the County possess corrosive properties that reduce the expected usable life of water services when metallic pipes in contact with soils are utilized. Due to the topographical conditions of sprawling development separated by waterways and narrow and congested streets and the expected infrastructure damage inherent in seismic zone described above, it is prudent to rely on automatic fire sprinkler systems to mitigate extended fire department response time and keep fires manageable with reduced fire flow (water) requirements for a given structures. Additional fire protection is also justified to match the current resources of firefighting equipment and personnel within the Orange County Fire Authority, Section 4. The following specific amendments to the sections of the 2016 Edition of the California Building Code as recommended by the Planning and Building Agency and the Orange County Fire Authority are reasonably necessary based upon the corresponding findings in Section 3 of this resolution as listed below: BUILDING CODE SECTION TITLE (Clarification) FINDINGS I,II,III 105.1 Permits required Admin 105.3.2 Time Limitation of Application Admin 111 Certificate of Occupancy Admin 202 General definitions (Spark Arrester) Admin 903.2 Where required (Sprinklers) 11 & III -B 903,2.8 Group R (Sprinklers) II -B & Ill -B Resolution No, 2016 - Page 4 of 8 75A -20 903.3.5.3 Hydraulically calculated systems 1& II Chapter 35 Reference Standards Admin R301.9 2016 NFPA 13 (Sprinkler Systems) Admin, II &1][ R309.6 2016 NFPA 13D (Single Family Sprinkler Systems) II & III _ 2013 NFPA 14 (Standpipe Systems) _ II & III _ 2016 NFPA 24 (Underground Water Supply Systems) 11 & III J103.2 Grading Permit Exemption _ I Admin, II & III Section 5.
