A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
BURBANK MAKING EXPRESS FINDINGS AND
DETERMINIATIONS THAT MODIFICATIONS TO THE
2022 CALIFORNIA BUILDING STANDARDS CODE ARE
REASONABLY NECESSARY BECAUSE OF LOCAL
CLIMATIC, GEOLOGICAL , TOPOGRAPHICAL, OR
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURBANK FINDS AND RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Certain building standards and other related model codes are adopted by the State of California, as set forth in Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, and are known as the “California Building Standards Code.” The California Building Standards Code consists of the California Administrative Code, California Building Code, California Residential Code, California Electrical Code, California Mechanical Code, California Plumbing Code, California Energy Code, California Historical Building Code, California Fire Code, California Existing Building Code, California Green Building Standards Code, and California Referenced Standards Code.
Section 2. The California Building Standards Code becomes applicable to the City of Burbank upon its effective date unless amended by the City pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 17958.
Section 3. Health and Safety Code Section 17958.5 authorizes the City to make reasonably necessary changes or modifications to the State adopted building codes, including the California Building Standards Code, based on local climatic, geological, topographical, or environmental conditions.
Section 4. Prior to making such changes, Health and Safety Code Section 17958.7 requires the City Council to make express findings of the necessity for the modifications to the building standards contained in the California Building Standards Code.
ATTACHMENT 2-2
Section 5. The Council of the City of Burbank has determined that modifications to the California Building Standards Code, 2022 Edition, as described herein, are reasonably necessary due to local climatic, geological, topographical, or environmental conditions, and hereby makes express findings of the necessity for such modifications.
Section 6. Express Findings. In support of these modifications and changes, the City Council hereby expressly finds that the amendments and modifications to building standards contained in the 2022 California Building Standards Code, as adopted by the City, are reasonably necessary due to the following local climatic, geological, topographical, or environmental conditions in the case of amendments to the California Green Building Standards Code:
General Findings
(a) The presence of the Verdugo Mountains at the eastern border of the City allows wind patterns during certain climatic conditions and certain periods of the year.
Further, intermittent Santa Ana wind conditions occur from September to March allowing conditions that create the potential for high velocity winds with high temperature. In addition, the region is within a climate system capable of producing major winds, fire and rain related disasters, including but limited to, those caused by the Santa Ana winds and El Nino (or La Nina) subtropical-like weather. (Climatic)
(b) The City of Burbank is located within the Verdugo- San Fernando Valley region of Southern California which has extreme arid conditions and periods of severe drought. These conditions can caus e extremely dry brush and fauna in the Wildland Urban Interface of the Verdugo Hills which has been identified as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone by the Office of the State Fire Marshal. (Climatic)
(c) The Safety Element of the General Plan identifies earthquake fault risk in the City due to faults located within and nearby the City boundaries such as the Verdugo Fault, the Santa Monica- Hollywood-Raymond Fault and the San Andreas Fault. The close proximity of these and other faults are capable of produc ing earthquakes, foreshocks and aftershocks of significant magnitude and intensity that require a higher order to seismic resilience in building design and construction. (Geological)
(d) The Los Angeles region has a vast and complex network of earthquake faults. Some of these faults, like the previously unknown Northridge Fault are blind thrust faults that earth scientists believe are capable of intense ground shaking similar or greater in size than the January 17, 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The random possible location ATTACHMENT 2-3
of these blind thrust faults increase the local seismic risk and pose an increasing threat to public safety. (Geological)
(e) The Safety Element of the General Plan also identifies areas within the City having liquefiable soils that have the potential of allowing greater damage to building structures in an earthquake. Liquefaction is a very destructive secondary effect of strong seismic shaking where a loss of bearing strength occurs along with ground oscillations in the supporting soils. (Geological)
(f) Several existing buildings are located on parcels in the City of Burbank on hilly terrain with slopes that create grading, drainage, foundation, infrastructure, utility and emergency access challenges. (Topographical)
(g) As a result of climate change, extreme heat events in California and the Los Angeles region are becoming more frequent, more intense, and longer lasting, with the trend expected to continue as climate change worsens. Extreme heat can exacerbate heat-related illnesses and deaths, while also affecting communities indirectly through energy disruption and spikes in energy prices, impacting affordability. (Climatic and Environmental)
Specific Findings
(h) The City of Burbank is a densely populated area having buildings and structures constructed over and near a vast array of fault systems capable of producing major earthquakes, including but not limited to the 1994 Northridge Earthquake, the 1987 Whittier Narrows Earthquake, the 1971 San Fernando Earthquake and the 1933 Long Beach Earthquake. Additionally, the topography within the City of Burbank includes significant hillsides with narrow and winding access that makes timely response by fire suppression vehicles challenging and difficult. In addition, the region is within a climate system capable of producing major winds, fire and rain related disasters, including but not limited to those caused by the Santa Ana winds and El Nino (or La Nina) subtropical- like weather. This region is especially susceptible to more active termite and wood attacking insects and microorganisms.
