ORDINANCE NO. 4123 %
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH AME DING
CHAPTER 17.56 OF THE HUNTINGTON BEACH MUNICIPAL ODE
ADOPTING THE CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE
WHEREAS, Section 17958.5 of the California Health and Safety Code permits
the City to make changes or modifications to the California Fire Code as such changes
or modifications are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic or
topographical conditions; and
The Fire Chief of the City of Huntington Beach has recommended that the
California Fire Code be adopted by the City with certain changes or modifications which
are necessary to meet local climatic, geographical or topographical conditions.
The City Council of the City of Huntington Beach does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Findings. The following findings are hereby adopted in support of
Chapter 17.56 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code and the amendments thereto.
The findings shall not be codified.
The City of Huntington Beach is aware tho due to climatic, geological and topographical
conditions, there is potential for disasters and major fires within the City. The applicable
finding for each amendment, addition, or deletion from the California Fire Code (CFC) is
listed in Section 2 of this ordinance.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
1. Hot, dry, high velocity winds (called Santa Ana winds) are common in the area.
These winds reduce the relative humidity causing severe drying of the vegetation
and common building materials. These dry conditions predispose the area to large
destructive fires (conflagration).
2. The local climate is currently in a drought condition. Dry climatic conditions can
create the potential for the rapid spread of fire in both vegetation and structures.
The addition of fire protection systems will supplement the Fire Department
response by providing immediate protection for the building occupants and by
containing or controlling the spread of fire. Fire sprinkler systems also provide an
efficient use of water for the control and containment of fires.
3. The southern boundary of the City is along the Pacific Ocean. Winter storms and
tropical storms come into the City from the ocean. These storms can create high
winds and large ocean waves, which can cause flooding in large areas of the city.
Along part of the eastern boundary of the City is the Santa Ana River. This river
