Division 6. Health and Safety Code sections 17958.5, 17958.7, and 18941.5 require that findings be made in order to exceed the requirements found in the California Building Standards Code based on local climatic, geologic, or topographic conditions. Some of the amendments to the Uniform Building Code made by City of San Rafael include provisions that are more restrictive than the 2001 California Building Standards Code (Title 24, Part 1). Therefore, the City of San Rafael City Council hereby finds that these more restrictive provisions in the Uniform Building Code are reasonably necessary because of the following local climatic, geological, and topographical conditions: I. Climatic conditions a. Because most of the annual rainfall in San Rafael occurs during the winter, the summer months bring on a pseudo drought condition every year. The lack of summer rain, combined with hot, windy days, creates conditions that could dangerously spread fires. b. Because most of the annual rainfall in San Rafael occurs during the winter, and because some portions of San Rafael are subject to tidal influences, there are times that flooding conditions may restrict the Fire Department's ability to respond to fires. -15- ORDINANCE NO. 1791 C. Heat experienced during the summer months would make the use of ramps or stairs to reach residential units above the ground floor excessively difficult and potentially dangerous for the elderly and people with disabilities. d. Rainfall and damp weather during the winter months would make the use of ramps or stairs to reach the residential units above the first floor excessively difficult and potentially dangerous for the elderly and people with disabilities. II. Geologic conditions a. Because San Rafael lies near several earthquake faults, there are significant potential hazards such as road closures (resulting from landslides or Highway 101 failure), fires, collapsed buildings and isolation of residents requiring assistance. b. Because San Rafael is the major economic center of Marin County and is situated along the Highway 101 corridor, traffic congestion can create conditions that may restrict the Fire Department's ability to respond to fires. III. Topographic conditions Because much of San Rafael is located in hilly areas, there can be conditions which may limit the ability of the Fire Department to respond to and contain fires such as steepness of grade, narrow and winding roads, and water supplies. Health and Safety Code Section 17958.7 further requires that the modification or change be expressly marked and identified as to which each finding refers. Therefore, the San Rafael City Council finds that the following table identifies the Uniform Building Code sections that have been modified in Division 1, Section 12.12.020 of this ordinance, which are building standards as defined in Health and -16- ORDINANCE NO. 1791 Safety Code Section 18909, and the associated referenced conditions for modification due to the local climatic, geological, and topographical reasons.
