DATE 09/25/2025
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Ed Miranda, Information Technology Director/CIO
SUBJECT    Adopt a resolution approving the Cooperative Agreement with Alameda County Fire Department for the Fire Station Alerting System and approve an amendment to the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2025-26 SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
The Alameda County Fire Department embarked on a project to upgrade the alert system in its dispatch and fire stations to enhance emergency response efficiency. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Cooperative Agreement with the Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) for the installation of the Phoenix G2 Fire Station Alerting System at all Newark fire stations in the amount not to exceed $376,526.05. Approval also requires a Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget appropriation in the amount of $376,526.05.

BACKGROUND
The Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) provides fire and emergency response services within the City of Newark under an existing services contract. As part of this collaboration, the City is generally responsible for "hard costs" related to the use of fire stations including the fire station alerting system. To enhance emergency response efficiency, there is the need for an upgraded fire station alerting system to be installed in all Newark fire stations.

The Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) is overseeing a regional project to replace the entire fire alerting system—including dispatch and all fire stations—across all jurisdictions dispatched through the Alameda County Regional Emergency Communications Center (ACRECC). To secure this system, ACFD utilized a piggyback approach through a competitive procurement process to identify a new system vendor.  Ultimately, Alameda County adopted resolutions to allow installation services to be added directly to the components vendor’s contract.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The project to update the fire station alerting system at Newark fire stations involves The project to update the fire station alerting system at Newark fire stations involves the installation of the Honeywell Phoenix G2 Station Alerting System. This system will modernize dispatch alerting capabilities, providing faster and more reliable alerts for emergency personnel. The project scope includes procurement, ethernet cabling, installation of system components (speakers, lights, controllers), electrical work as needed, and patch/repair of impacted walls and ceilings. The new system will extend alerts into all areas of the station, providing significantly better coverage than the current system.

The Project will be implemented at all Newark fire stations:
• Station 27 – 39039 Cherry Street
• Station 28 – 7550 Thornton Avenue
• Station 29 – 35775 Ruschin Avenue
In order to effectuate the installation, staff recommends that the City Council authorize staff to enter into a Cooperative Agreement with ACFD for the fire alerting system.

This will result in efficiencies associated with ACFD's procurement and systemwide upgrade.  The not-to-exceed amount of the Cooperative Agreement is $376,526.05.

ACFD has contracted for the installation and will assign a Project Manager to oversee and coordinate the work with City staff. The City will provide timely access, approvals, and support to ensure successful completion. Upon completion, the City will assume ownership and maintenance responsibility for the system. The upfront service and warranty costs are approximately $15,300 for two years and included in the total project cost.

FISCAL IMPACT
This project was not included in the City’s FY 2024–2026 Adopted Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan and therefore requires a new capital appropriation. The total cost of the fire station alerting system installation is $376,526.05, based on the not-to-exceed amount outlined in the Cooperative Agreement with the Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) and detailed in Attachment A.

To fund this one-time capital investment, staff recommends establishing a new Capital Improvement Project (CIP 1306 – Fire Station Alerting System) and appropriating $376,526.05 from the Capital Projects Fund (Fund 610) unappropriated fund balance.

Ongoing annual maintenance and support costs are estimated at approximately $16,000 per year across all three stations. These costs will be incorporated into the City’s existing fire services contract with ACFD and will not be invoiced separately. Any future adjustments to this amount will be reflected in ACFD’s service cost allocations and incorporated into subsequent biennial budgets.

SIDE FUND CALCULATIONS
Side Funds – Purpose
„ Allow each agency in ACFD the choice of pre-funding their OPEB benefit independent of the pre-funding choice of other agencies in ACFD „ Side Funds are established for each agency within ACFD based on the full prefunding discount rate „ They represent the amount of unfunded liability for each agency due to past service, based on ACFD retiree medical benefit
„ Each agency decides how much, if any, of its own side fund to pre-fund „ If paid off would fully pre-fund past-service liability for agency

February 27, 2024 34

SIDE FUND CALCULATIONS
Side Funds – Methodology
„ Initial side fund determined as of 6/30/08, or when joining ACFD if later, for each agency in ACFD.
„ Yearly side fund calculation:
z Allocate year’s full pre-funding Normal Cost to each participating agency based on FTE, remaining is allocated based on allocation % of shared positions. z Each agency side fund will change:
(Beginning of year side fund with interest to end of year) + (Allocated portion of full pre-funding NC)
– (Allocated benefit payments with interest to end of year) „ Difference between total side fund amount and full pre-funding AAL is allocated to each agency based on FTE, remaining based on allocation % of shared positions. „ Each agency determines whether to make a pre-funding contribution to their CERBT sub-account or not, agency side fund is adjusted by any assets in sub-account:
(End of year side fund)
– (End of year assets in CERBT sub-account)

February 27, 2024 35

SIDE FUND CALCULATIONS
Side Fund Analysis and 6/30/22 Adjustment
„ Side Funds were set up in 2008 to enable agencies to pre-fund OPEB benefits independent of the pre-funding choice of other agencies in ACFD. „ After 2008, Side Funds are projected forward based on a cost (liability) allocation methodology, with subsequent side funds set up for new agencies (Newark, Union City, Emeryville).
„ While Side Fund liabilities generally seem reasonable, the LLNL Side Fund was in an overfunded position as of June 30, 2021 despite only employee contributions having been paid to CERBT trust.
„ Main driver for LLNL anomaly is side fund liability set up in 2008 was not based on demographics of LLNL participants.
„ Adjusted side funds - Recalculated the LLNL initial side fund amount based on LLNL demographics when joining ACFD, rolled-forward to June 30, 2022, and allocated a credit back to the other 4 agencies who were with ACFD at the time LLNL joined (ACFD, San Leandro, Dublin, and LBNL).
„ This approach provides reasonable Side Funds for all agencies including LLNL.

There would be no change to the side fund amounts for the cities of Newark, Union City, and Emeryville since their initial side funds were based on their demographics.

ACTUARIAL CERTIFICATION
This report presents the Alameda County Fire Department Retiree Healthcare Plan (“Plan”) June 30, 2023 actuarial valuation.

The purpose of this valuation is to:
„ Determine the June 30, 2023 Benefit Obligations,
„ Determine the Plan’s June 30, 2023 Funded Status, and „ Calculate the June 30, 2023 Side Funds Balances and 2024/25 Actuarially Determined Contributions.

The report provides information intended for funding the Plan, but may not be appropriate for other purposes. Information provided in this report may be useful for the Plan’s financial management. Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this report due to such factors as: plan experience differing from that anticipated by the assumptions; changes in assumptions; changes expected as part of the natural progression of the plan; and changes in plan provisions or applicable law. Actuarial models necessarily rely on the use of estimates and are sensitive to changes. Small variations in estimates may lead to significant changes in actuarial measurements. Due to the limited scope of this assignment, we did not perform an analysis of the potential range of such measurements.

The valuation is based on Plan provisions, participant data, and asset information provided by the Department as summarized in this report, which we relied on and did not audit. We reviewed the participant data for reasonableness.

To the best of our knowledge, this report is complete and accurate and has been conducted using generally accepted actuarial principles and practices. As members of the American Academy of Actuaries meeting the Academy Qualification Standards, we certify the actuarial results and opinions herein.

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Following a comprehensive reclassification study, staff approved reclassifying one Administrative Support Specialist II in the Community Development Department to a Senior Administrative Support Specialist. The new classification reflects the employee’s current duties, the department’s operational needs, and compliance with the City’s Personnel Rules and Regulations.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution amending the 2024–2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2025-26 to reallocate the position.

BACKGROUND
The City contracted with Distinction & Degree, a consulting firm specializing in public sector classification studies, to evaluate the Administrative Support Specialist II position. The study, conducted between November 2024 and June 2025, included a questionnaire describing the duties and position completed by the incumbent employee and reviewed by the supervisor, interviews and feedback from the employee, supervisor, and department head, and a comprehensive analysis of comparable classifications and industry standards.

Staff reviewed the consultant’s findings and determined that the incumbent is consistently performing duties beyond the scope of their current classification. Pursuant to Rule III, Section 5 Reclassification, of the Personnel Rules and Regulations, staff approved a reclassification to the Senior Administrative Support Specialist classification.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The study concluded that the Senior Administrative Support Specialist classification The study concluded that the Senior Administrative Support Specialist classification best reflects the scope, complexity, and autonomy of the incumbent’s current responsibilities. Staff engaged in meet and confer with the Newark Association of Miscellaneous Employees (NAME) to review the reclassification decision, as required by law.  In order to effectuate the reclassification, an amendment to the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2025-26 is necessary to reallocate an authorized position from the authorized Administrative Support Specialist II position to the Senior Administrative Support Specialist position.  Based on the date that the reclassification was effectuated under the City's personnel rules, the proposed amendment to the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2025-26 to reallocate the authorized position from the authorized Administrative Support Specialist II position to the Senior Administrative Support Specialist position is effective August 3, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT
The budget amendment will require a budget appropriation from the General Fund’s unappropriated balance for Fiscal Year 2025–26.

The estimated fiscal impact for the remainder of the fiscal year (August 3, 2025 through June 30, 2026) is $16,835, based on the difference in fully burdened costs between the current and proposed classifications.

Future costs will be included in the City’s regular biennial budget process.

DATE 09/25/2025
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Krysten Lee, Finance Director
SUBJECT    Year-End Budget Review and Adoption of a Resolution Amending the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2024-25
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
This report provides an overview of the City’s fiscal performance for FY 2024–25, which marks the first year of the current biennial budget cycle. It presents unaudited General Fund results, highlights major revenue and expenditure trends, and recommends year-end budget amendments necessary to align actual financial activity with adopted policies and operational needs.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution amending the 2024–2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for FY 2024–25, as detailed in Exhibit A.

BACKGROUND
The City Council adopted the 2024–2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan on June 27, 2024 (Resolution No. 11665). In accordance with standard fiscal practices, budget amendments are brought forward throughout the year to address unanticipated changes in revenues or expenditures. The City’s regular practice is to present both mid-year and year-end amendments for Council consideration. The most recent mid-year adjustments were approved on March 13, 2025 (Resolution No. 11734).

Fiscal Year 2024–25 represents the first year of the current biennial budget cycle. As part of the year-end review process, staff recommends several amendments to align appropriations with actual revenues, operational needs, and interfund transfers in accordance with adopted fiscal policies. These proposed adjustments reflect changes that have occurred since adoption of the Biennial Budget in June 2024.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
General Fund Year-End Results
General Fund Year-End Results
For FY 2024–25, the General Fund is projected to close with a net operating surplus of $3.89 million, after all transfers and designations.

Revenue Performance
General Fund revenues are projected to total $95.1 million, an $8.8 million increase over the amended budget. Key revenue variances include:

Property Tax: Increased by $0.6 million due to higher-than-anticipated assessed valuations.

Sales Tax and Measure GG: Increased by $1.84 million and $3.86 million, respectively, driven by one-time receipts received in the final quarter.

Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT): Increased by $1.02 million due to the voter-approved rate change from 10% to 14% under Measure LL, effective January 1, 2025. The projection reflects six months at the higher rate.

Interest Earnings: Decreased by $0.6 million as a result of declining investment yields.

Expenditure Performance
General Fund expenditures were significantly lower than projected in the mid-year update, driven by:
$2.73 million in personnel savings, primarily resulting from vacancies across multiple departments, most notably within the Police Department and Public Works Department, which are the City's two largest departments. $4.11 million in non-personnel savings, resulting from the year-end closure of encumbrances for various budgeted projects and services that are either no longer needed or will be carried over to next year.

General Fund Transfers and Designations
Several year-end transfers and revenue designations are proposed to align with the City’s fiscal policies, address long-term obligations, and support capital funding needs.

Key Transfers
$2.73 million to the Pension and OPEB Reserve, based on realized salary savings, and as required by the City's Pension and OPEB Reserve Policy. $1.55 million to the Emergency and Fiscal Uncertainty Reserve, which is necessary to maintain the City Council-approved 30% target of General Fund operating expenditures.
$1.0 million to the Maintenance Reserve Fund, increasing the balance to $8 million to support long term maintenance needs.
$390,000 from the General Fund to the Capital Improvement Fund (Fund 610) to complete the City’s $600,000 commitment for the Newark Resource Center renovation. The first $210,000 was transferred in FY 2023–24; this transfer represents the remaining amount.
$100,000 from the ARPA Fund to the General Fund to partially fund eligible personnel costs, marking the City’s final use of ARPA funds before the federal expenditure deadline of December 31, 2024.

Revenue Designations:
$1.02 million of Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenue designated for future debt service, representing the additional 4% generated under Measure LL, effective January 1, 2025.
$6.50 million in excess Measure GG revenue designated for future anticipated capital project debt service.

These designations ensure that restricted revenues are earmarked for long-term capital priorities, including anticipated debt issuance for projects such as the replacement of the City’s two fire stations.

General Fund Reserves
Consistent with adopted financial policies, reserve levels are reviewed and adjusted based on the following criteria:

Maintaining a 30% reserve target for the Emergency and Fiscal Uncertainty Reserve (as required under the policy);
Allocating salary savings to the Pension/OPEB Reserve (as required under the policy);
Using prior-year audited results to assess capacity for contributions to the Maintenance and Equipment Replacement Reserves.

In FY 2024–25, the City contributed $12 million from the Pension/OPEB Reserve to the Section 115 Pension Trust to address long-term pension obligations. The reserve was partially replenished with $2.7 million in FY 2024–25 salary savings, resulting in an ending balance of $3.7 million.

Cash and Investments
During FY 2024–25, the City earned $7,817,646 in interest from unrestricted cash and investments, with an average yield of 4.66%. This compares to $8,173,486 earned in FY 2023–24 at an average yield of 5.18%. Please note that interest earned on restricted cash is not available to support General Fund operations.

Special Revenue and Internal Service Funds
Transfers were made to and from special revenue and internal service funds to align with eligible uses and actual project needs:
$81,500 in salary costs reclassified from the General Fund to the Measure D Fund to support the Environmental Services Manager position. $290,000 transferred from State Grant Funds to the Capital Improvement Fund (Fund 610) to initiate the Broadband Project.
$150,000 was transferred from the Kansen Chu AB 74 Auto Theft Prevention Grant (Fund 234) to the General Fund to support the City's Crime Analyst position.

Internal Service Fund budgets, including the Technology Replacement Fund, were increased by $35,000 to support cybersecurity upgrades, specifically the purchase of a Fortinet firewall critical for network security and compatibility with the new telephone system. The final cost exceeded initial estimates.

Audit and Internal Controls
The year-end close process is proceeding on schedule, and preliminary unaudited financials were used to prepare this report. The City’s external audit and the preparation of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, are currently underway. The ACFR is expected to be finalized by December 2025 and presented to the City Council in January 2026.

FY 2024–25 Summary of Significant Amendments
Increase TOT revenue by $1 million to reflect the voter-approved rate increase from 10% to 14% under Measure LL, adopted in November 2024. The revised estimate captures six months of revenue (January–June 2025) at the higher rate.

Transfer $1 million from the General Fund to the Maintenance Reserve, increasing the reserve balance to $8 million to support long-term infrastructure needs.

Transfer $390,000 from the General Fund to the Capital Improvement Fund (Fund 610) to complete the City’s $600,000 commitment to the Newark Resource Center renovation. An initial $210,000 was transferred in FY 2023–24; this represents the remaining balance.

Reclassify $80,000 in Management Analyst salary costs from Economic Development to Community Development to reflect shared staffing responsibilities between the two divisions.

Reclassify $81,500 in salary costs for the Environmental Services Manager from the General Fund Maintenance Cost Center (Fund 140) to the Measure D Fund (Fund 215) to leverage available special revenue.

APPROVING AND RE-ADOPTING A MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE POLICY AS STATED IN CHAPTER 2.50 “MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE POLICY” TO TITLE 2. “ADMINISTRATION AND PERSONNEL” OF THE NEWARK MUNICIPAL CODE IN COMPLIANCE WITH ASSEMBLY BILL 481
WHEREAS, on September 30, 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law Assembly Bill 481 relating to the use of military equipment by California law enforcement agencies; and WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 481 seeks to provide transparency, oversight, and an opportunity for meaningful public input on decisions regarding whether and how military equipment is funded, acquired, or used by law enforcement agencies; and
WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 481, codified at California Government Code section 7070, et. seq., requires law enforcement agencies to obtain approval of the applicable governing body, by an ordinance adopting a “military equipment” use policy, at a regular meeting held pursuant to open meeting laws, prior to taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment. The term “military equipment” is defined in California Government Code section 7070 subdivision (c); and
WHEREAS, the Newark Police Department is in possession of certain items of equipment that may qualify as “military equipment” under Assembly Bill 481; and WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 481 requires that a law enforcement agency possessing and using such qualifying equipment prepare a publicly released, written, military equipment use policy.

The policy must be a document covering the inventory, description, purpose, use, acquisition, maintenance, fiscal impacts, procedures, training, oversight, and complaint process, applicable to the Department’s use of such equipment; and
WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 481 allows the governing body of a city to approve the military equipment use policy for continued or future funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment within its jurisdiction only if it makes specified determinations specified in Government Code Section 7071 subdivision (d); and
WHEREAS, on June 9, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 536 approving and adopting a military equipment use policy identified as Newark Police Department Policy 709, having received the information required under Assembly Bill 481 regarding the Newark Police Department’s use of military equipment as defined in said law and upon a finding of the specified determinations required under Government Code section 7071(d); and WHEREAS, Government Code section 7072 provides that a law enforcement agency that receives approval for a military equipment use policy pursuant to Section 7071 shall submit to the governing body an annual military equipment report for each type of military equipment approved by the governing body within one year of approval, and annually thereafter for as long as the military equipment is available for use; and
WHEREAS, the law enforcement agency shall also make each annual military equipment report publicly available on its internet website for as long as the military equipment is available for use; and
WHEREAS, the annual military report shall include the following information for the immediately preceding calendar year for each type of military equipment:
a. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use; b. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment;
c. The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response; d. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military equipment report;
e. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment; f. If the law enforcement agency intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment; and WHEREAS, Government Code section 7071(d) provides the governing body shall determine, based on the annual military equipment report submitted pursuant to Section 7072, whether each type of military equipment identified in that report has complied with the following standards for approval:
a. The military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety; b. The proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties;
c. If purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety;
d. Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance; and
WHEREAS, if the governing body determines that a type of military equipment identified in that annual military equipment report has not complied with the standards for approval set forth above, the governing body shall either disapprove a renewal of the authorization for that type of military equipment or require modifications to the military equipment use policy in a manner that will resolve the lack of compliance; and
WHEREAS, the governing body shall review any ordinance that it has adopted approving the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment at least annually and vote on whether to renew the ordinance at a regular meeting held pursuant to open meeting laws; and WHEREAS, the City Council most recently approved and reaffirmed the Newark Police Department’s Policy (identified as Newark Police Department Policy 709) on July 25, 2024, (Ordinance No. 541), finding it met the requirements under AB 481 and re-adopting the military equipment use policy as stated in Chapter 2.50 “Military Equipment Use Policy”; and WHEREAS, the Newark Police Department’s 2024 Annual Military Equipment Use Report was posted on the department’s website on August 5, 2025, and within thirty (30) days thereafter a well-publicized public meeting concerning the renewal of the military equipment at issue was held on August 13, 2025, in compliance with Government Code Section 7072 (b); and
WHEREAS, the Newark Police Department seeks renewal of Policy 709; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Newark, having received the information required under Assembly Bill 481 regarding the Newark Police Department’s renewed use of military equipment as defined in said law, and makes the specified determinations required under Government Code Section 7070, et. seq., deems it to be in the best interest of the City to approve and renew the Newark Police Department’s Military Equipment Funding, Acquisition and Use Policy as set forth in the policy identified as Newark Police Department Policy 709.

SECTION 1. Recitals.

The above recitals are true and correct and made a part of this Ordinance.

2. The Newark Police Department’s Military Equipment Use Policy is necessary because there are no reasonable alternatives that can achieve the same objectives of officer and civilian safety.

4. The military equipment identified in the Newark Police Department’s Military Equipment Use Policy is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objectives of officer and civilian safety.

5. Prior military equipment use by the Newark Police Department complied with the Military Equipment Use Policy although it was not yet in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance.

6. The Newark Police Department’s Military Equipment Use Policy, Policy 709, setting forth the City’s military equipment use policy is approved and renewed.

The State of California, through the California Building Standards Commission, has adopted new editions of existing building construction codes under a new Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, referred to collectively as the 2025 California Building Standards Code (CBSC).  This process typically takes place every three years and new codes will become effective January 1, 2026.  The City previously incorporated and modified the 2022 CBSC which is currently in use. The sections included in the 2025 CBSC are the California Administrative Code, the California Building Code, the California Residential Code, the California Mechanical Code, the California Electrical Code, the California Plumbing Code, the California Fire Code, the California Reference Standards Code, the California Historical Building Code, the California Energy Code, the California Existing Building Code, and the California Green Building Standards Code.

As required by state law, applications for a building permit made after December 31, 2025 will be subject to the new codes.  Section 17922 of the California Health and Safety Code requires local agencies to adopt the building standards contained in the 2025 CBSC.  Under Section 17958.7 of the California Health and Safety Code, local jurisdictions have the opportunity to make limited amendments to the new state codes provided the local jurisdiction makes appropriate findings such modifications are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geologic, or topographic conditions.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Currently, Title 15 "Buildings and Construction" Article I "Building Regulations" of the Newark Municipal Code (NMC) includes the building standards contained in the 2022 edition of the CBSC.  Staff is recommending a repeal and replacement of certain chapters of Title 15, Article I, in order to adopt, by reference, with modifications to appropriately address unique local conditions, the 2025 edition of the CBSC.

Staff is recommending technical changes to the Building, Residential, Plumbing, Electrical, Mechanical, and Fire codes.  There are no technical changes recommended to the Administrative, Reference Standards, Historical Building, Energy, Existing Building, and Green Building Standards codes.  Many of the proposed technical changes were incorporated into the NMC in previous code cycles and/or as clarification for safety measures added to certain code sections.  A significant portion of the recommended local amendments relate to language location changes. These amendments will allow the City to carry forward the same standards currently in use.

Some of the other proposed changes merely accommodate new numbering systems or align our current municipal code to the updated CBSC.

The proposed modifications to the 2025 CBSC with the recommended repeal and replacement of Title 15, Article I are summarized as follows:

Chapter 15.02 - California Administrative Code
There are no proposed changes to the California Administrative Code.

Chapter 15.04 - General Provisions
Section 15.04.030 to be repealed and held in reserve as the building and fire code now specify within the document the interpretation body and appeal process.

Chapter 15.08 - California Building Code
Sections 402.5, 404.3, 407.6, 410.6, 903.2, 903.2.1, 903.2.1.2, 903.2.2, 903.2.4, 903.2.7, 903.2.8, 903.2.9, 903.2.10, and 903.2.22 Automatic Fire Sprinkler Systems.

These various code sections should be modified to provide consistency with the City’s fire sprinkler and alarm ordinance.

Section 501.1, Site Addressing.

This modification should be made to provide consistency with other sections of the current NMC.

15.08.042 Licensed professional.

The modification should be continued from prior local code adoptions to preserve minimum safety standards.

Chapter 15.09 - California Residential Code
Section R301.1.3.2.1, Engineering Required.

This recommended modification is a continuation of existing NMC standards added in previous code cycles.  The California Residential Code allows the Building Official to require drawings for dwellings taller than two stories be designed by a licensed professional.  The recommended NMC change is to increase the standard to include dwellings taller than one story.  This is the standard the City has been using for many years.

Section R313, Automatic Fire Sprinkler Systems.

This recommended modification is also a continuation of existing NMC standards added in previous code cycles.  The California Residential Code requires automatic fire sprinkler systems in all new one and two family dwellings and townhouses.  For one and two family dwellings and townhomes, the code language is proposed to change in order to match fire code requirements for existing structures.

Section R328.8, R328.8.1, and R328.8.3. Protection from Impact for ESS (Energy Storage Systems). These code sections are proposed to be modified to clarify the safety intent as needed to prevent damage to the equipment which could result in house fires.

Chapter 10, Wood Burning Fireplaces.

R1000 section was added to complement the existing Bay Area wide prohibition on new wood burning fireplaces.  Staff is not recommending any changes to the previous ordinance.

Appendix K, Sound Transmission.

This proposed section modification is a carryover from the previous ordinance.

Chapter 15.10 - California Mechanical Code

15.10.030, Connection of Natural Gas Utilities.

This proposed section is provided in the previous ordinance as a modification and gives the Building Official options to assist developers in obtaining utility connections.

Chapter 15.12 - California Electrical Code

15.12.090, Temporary Connection of Electrical Utilities.

This proposed section is also in the previous ordinance as a modification to give the Building Official options to assist developers in obtaining utility connections.

15.12.120, Building Official Authority.

The proposed section, which is consistent with the previous ordinance, grants the Building Official the authority to disconnect electrical service when unsafe conditions exist. This includes situations caused by illegal modifications, fires, or vehicle collisions.

15.12.190, Electrical Service Connections.

This proposed section clarifies standards that are not well described in the California Electrical Code and does not change the modifications provided in the previous ordinance.

Chapter 15.16 - California Plumbing Code
Sections 412.3, Privacy in Public Multiple Accommodation Toilet Rooms.

This item is a continuation of existing NMC standards added in previous code cycles.  It is generally understood that persons using water closets or urinals in multiple accommodation toilet rooms should be afforded some degree of privacy.  The current California Plumbing Code and California Building Code do not specifically address this issue.  Some designers have in the past proposed designing multiple accommodation toilet rooms without privacy partitions around water closets or placing urinals in full view of persons outside the toilet room.

Section 422.2 Dealing with separate toilet facilities.

This proposed section modification would clarify the total number of plumbing fixtures required when all the facilities would be single-use such as gender-neutral or family-assisted facility.

Table 4-1 is excluded.

Section 612 Dealing with residential fire sprinkler systems.

This proposed section modification would also continue a current requirement in the NMC. The plumbing code provides a number of exceptions for requiring the connection of waste lines to a public sanitary sewer system.  One of the exceptions allows for private septic systems, which in Newark would be unacceptable.  The change would prohibit septic systems.  All waste lines must connect to Union Sanitary District sanitary sewer system mains.  There are no proposed language changes from the previous NMC ordinance.

Section 1101.12, Roof Drainage.

This proposed modification would prohibit, if practical, direct connection of roof drains to storm drains, which complements current requirements in the City’s Stormwater Management and Discharge Control Ordinance and associated stormwater permit issued by the Regional Water Quality Control Board.  There are no proposed changes from the previous ordinance.

Chapter 15.17 - California Fire Code

Section 15.17.010, California Fire Code adopted by reference.

A number of individual sections are proposed to supplement individual sections not adopted by the State Fire Marshal, but desired by the Alameda County Fire Department.

Chapter 2, Definitions.

Four definitions are proposed to be added, amended, and/or relocated to better clarify terms used by the Alameda County Fire Department.  There are no significant changes from the previously adopted ordinance.

Chapter 9, Fire Protection, Alarms, and Detection Systems.

This chapter relates to the City’s fire sprinkler, fire alarm, and fire detection standards which are more restrictive than State codes.  These are proposed to be modified for consistency with building code and fire department language.

Section 5614, Safe and Sane Fireworks.

This item is a continuation of existing NMC standards added in previous code cycles.

Because of a major change to the California Fire Code it was appropriate to reformat the City’s fireworks ordinance.  The City’s safe and sane fireworks ordinance would remain unchanged except for minor editing and numbering changes.  There are no recommended technical changes.

Appendix D, Fire Department Access.

Appendix D has been a part of the ordinance for several code cycles.  The Fire Department is recommending adopting the appendix without modifications.

Chapter 15.17.190, Permit Fees.

This chapter should be eliminated because fees are covered in other parts of the ordinance.

Chapter 15.17.200, Violation deemed infraction.

This chapter should be eliminated because this subject is covered in other parts of the ordinance.

Chapter 15.18 - California Referenced Standards Code
There are no proposed changes to the California Referenced Standards Code.

Chapter 15.20 - California Historical Building Code
There are no proposed changes to the California Historical Building Code.

Chapter 15.21 - California Existing Building Code
There are no proposed changes to the California Existing Building Code.

Chapter 15.22 - California Energy Code
There are no proposed changes to the California Energy Code.

Chapter 15.23 - California Green Building Standards Code There are no proposed changes to the California Green Building Standards Code.

The findings associated with these recommended modifications for local climate, geologic and topographical conditions in accordance with California Health Code Section 17958.7 are included in the proposed resolution.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact as a result of adopting the 2022 CBSC.  The City's costs related to implementation of the 2025 CBSC would be recovered through the building permit fees in the current Master Fee Schedule.
