A.
The
city council of the City of Roseville finds and declares that the
additions, modifications, and changes made to these codes are necessary
for the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare due to
climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. These amendments
are authorized under Health and Safety Code Section 17958 and are
identified as follows:
1.
Climatic.
Average yearly rainfall for the city is approximately 18 inches; with
the majority occurring between October and April. During the summer
months, there is generally no measurable precipitation and temperatures
for this dry period range from 70 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit. Pools
are common as a result of the high summer temperatures. High summer
month temperatures are frequently accompanied by light to gusty westerly
and northerly winds. The relative humidity during the summer months
averages from two to 30 millimeters of mercury (Hg), which is considered
arid. The city is surrounded by thousands of acres of grasslands which,
during the summer months are dried to the point at which they are
exceedingly combustible and easily ignited.
2.
Topographical.
The city is segmented by several topographical and physical features,
including minor rivers, steep canyons, natural parkways, open space,
freeways, railroad tracks, drainage canals, and sprawling industrial
facilities. Heavy traffic congestion on city streets acts as a barrier
for fire and emergency vehicles providing timely response. Preservation
of wetland areas, natural parkways, riparian corridors, vernal pools,
open space, and endangered species' habitats have all contributed
to access problems while also resulting in exemptions from vegetation
reduction programs. These situations, though environmentally important,
increase the demands on the fire department due to extreme fire hazards
created by increased fuel loading and access limitations. These conditions
also result in natural aquifers that the city uses for water, resulting
in differing water sources.
3.
Geological.
The city is located within a Seismic Design Category D area and is
subject to ground tremors. Flooding has occurred in the portions of
the city that lie adjacent to Roseville's numerous creeks and
streams.
B.
The
building official is authorized to render interpretations of this
code and make and enforce rules and supplemental regulations in order
to carry out its application. The building official maybe guided by
future supplements to the California Building Code. Such interpretations,
rules and regulations and supplements shall conform with the intent
and purpose of the California Building Code and shall be available
to the public during normal business hours.
C.
When
there are practical difficulties involved in carrying out the provisions
of this code, the building official may grant modifications for individual
cases. The building official shall first find that a special individual
reason makes the strict letter of this code impractical and that the
modification is in conformance with the intent and purpose of this
code and that such modification does not lessen any fire-protection
requirements or any degree of structural integrity. The details of
any action granting modifications shall be recorded and entered in
the files of the City of Roseville.
(Ord. 4370 § 1, 2006; Ord. 6156 § 2, 2019; Ord. 6594 § 2, 2022)
Section 230-71 of the California Electric Code is hereby amended

one switch or one circuit breaker mounted in a single enclosure, in
a group of separate enclosures, or in or on a switchboard. There shall
be no more than one disconnect per service grouped in any one location.

(Ord. 3701 § 1, 2001; Ord. 6156 § 3, 2019; Ord. 6594 § 2, 2022)
Section 202 of the Uniform Swimming Pool, Spa and Hot Tub Code
is amended to include the following definitions:
means any mechanical device used in the operation and maintenance
of a swimming pool.
means the structure upon which equipment is located or mounted.
means that portion of the swimming pool which is used to
retain water or used to support any plumbing or mechanical device
or recreational device or other structure as defined in the California
Building Code.
(Ord. 2180 § 1, 1989; Ord. 6156 § 4, 2019)
Section 3109.2 of the California Building Code is amended to
add the following language at the end of Section 3109.2:
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with regard to Health and Safety
Code section 115922 requiring at least two of seven drowning prevention
safety features, at least one of the two drowning prevention safety
features required must be an enclosure that meets the requirements
of Section 115923 and isolates the swimming pool or spa from any private
single-family home. The intent of this section is to ensure that when
a building permit is issued for the construction of a new swimming
pool or spa or the remodeling of an existing swimming pool or spa
at a private single-family home, the respective swimming pool or spa
shall have an enclosure that meets the requirements of Section 115923
and isolates the swimming pool or spa from any private single-family
home.
(Ord. 2180 § 1, 1989.; Ord. 6156 § 6, 2019; Ord. 6594 § 2, 2022)
