INPUT CATALOG - CITIZEN PARTICIPATION AND OTHER AGENCIES
The Planning Department has returned comments on the proposed Fire Code
Amendments; in general, supporting the proposals. Based on their review,
some of the proposed amendments were modified or deleted. However, the
Community Development Department questions the need for a restrictive
ordinance against wood shakes and shingles.
They have suggested in the alternative a_ proportional limit on the number
or percentage of units in a given subdivision which can be built with such
roofs, and blanket prohibitions only in high- hazard or hillside areas.
Police Department conveyed its support and endorsement of the amendment
package after review.
Building Department comments on proposed changes were solicited and were
returned on July 20, 1982. Based on these comments, portions of the Fire
Code Amendments were modified or deleted.
The Fire Department has also requested input on the proposed amendments to
the 1982 Fire Code from developers and architects, both through general
solicitation in the press, and written communique to selected commercial
firms. Written comments have been received from Richmond, Rossi &
Montgomery, and portions of the proposed amendments have been modified to
reflect some of these comments.
The attached catalog reflects those sections which elicited comment; the
origin of comments is letter -coded as follows:
B - Building Department
C - Architects and Developers ( "Commercial ")
P - Planning Department
