A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA
URGING THE CONTINUANCE OF THE UNIFORM BUILDING CODE, THE
UNIFORM HOUSING CODE, THE UNIFORM FUMING CODE AND THE
NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE AS INSTRUMENTS OF MUNICIPAL JURISDICTION.
WHEREAS, it has been brought to the attention of this City Council that
the Building Standards Commission of the State of California has been and is
now reviewing laws and regulations pertaining to building; and
WHEREAS, part, and in some instances all, of the nationally recognized
Uniform Building Code, Uniform Housing Code, Uniform Plumbing Code and the
National Electric Code, are to be rewritten and included in the new State
Building Regulations of Title 24; and
WHEREAS, municipalities throughout the State use the above-mentioned
nationally recognized codes, and keep pace with modern practices and techno-
logies by adopting amendments as needed to meet local requirements; and
WHEREAS, amendment of the State Building Regulations, once adopted,
would be a slow and unwieldy process, as compared to the present municipal
practices;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of
Costa Mesa, that the Building Standards Commission of the State of California
be, and the same is hereby, urged and requested to adopt the above-mentioned
nationally recognized codes by reference, rather than incorporate their pro-
visions in the State Building Regulations, in order that maintenance and
enforcement of these regulations under local jurisdiction may be continued
and encouraged.
