FISCAL IMPACT:
None
BACKGROUND:
The Board of Directors of the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District adopted Ordinance No. 36, adopting the 2019 California Fire Code, with local amendments. The District has requested that the Board of Supervisors ratify the District's adoption, so the District can implement the 2019 Fire Code, with local amendments, in the unincorporated portion of the District's service area. Ratification by the Board of
Supervisors is required by State law for the District's code adoption ordinance to be effective in the unincorporated portion of the District's service area. This Board Order modifies the District's ordinance by providing for the retention of the Board of Supervisor's discretion for final County approval of entitlements, completion of development improvements, and issuance of County stop work orders within the unincorporated area of the County.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If unapproved, the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District will not be able to implement District Ordinance No. 36 within the unincorporated portion of the District's service area.
