A. The
owner, contractor or responsible party constructing a new building,
addition, alteration, or demolition to an existing building shall
maintain security measures as deemed necessary or as required by the
building official to control vandalism, fires, blowing dust, sand,
or debris.
B. Perimeter
security fencing is required along all property lines. Fencing shall
be a minimum six feet high with a minimum ninety-four percent blackout
heavy-duty plastic screening. The number of access points onto the
site shall be minimized, and where feasible, situated in locations
that are highly visible from an adjacent street. Vehicle and pedestrian
gates and openings shall have gates secured after hours of operation.
Locking gates shall be secured with minimum 3/8-inch thick, 30-grade
coil chain, or minimum 5/16-inch cable. The perimeter security fencing
shall be maintained and remain in place through the duration of the

C. The owner, contractor or responsible party constructing a new building, addition, alteration, or demolition to an existing building shall keep the construction site clean by having adequately sized discarded materials containers placed on the site for the depositing of discarded materials. For the purpose of this section, discarded materials shall have the same meaning as in Chapter
8.16, and shall include those substances that may be accumulated as a result of construction activities.
D. In accordance with Section
15.18.010 the owner, contractor or responsible party will meet diversion requirements as specified in Chapters
4 and
5 of the California Green Building Code, 23
CCR, Part 11. Containers, as defined in Chapter
8.16 of this municipal code, shall remain on the construction site until the building inspector has completed the final inspection or has approved the removal of the container. Said container shall be emptied of its contents on a regular schedule or as ordered by the building inspector in order to avoid blowing debris or other public nuisances.
E. Disposal
shall be by transportation to a legally established recovery, processing,
or disposal site by the city's franchise waste hauler or other person
authorized by law to remove any container from the location where
the person in charge for storage and collection placed the container.
F. Refusal to comply with the provisions of this section shall be deemed a misdemeanor or infraction and is punishable as stipulated in Chapter
1.12 of this code. The noncompliance can be sufficient cause for the revocation of the issued building permit.

8.12.030 and applicable required components of the California Green Building Standards Code, 24
CCR, Part 11, known as CALGreen, as amended, if its project is covered by the scope of CALGreen. If the requirements of CALGreen are more stringent than the container enclosure requirements of Section

(Ord. 1374 § 1, 2022; Ord. 1388 § 2, 2022)
Prior to the issuance of a building permit for all new projects
requiring a building permit, the proponent of the project shall obtain
the review and approval of the city manager or their designee of a
plan depicting the recyclable materials and/or organic materials collection
area or areas for the project. The plan shall comply with the following
provisions:
A. Location.
recyclable materials and/or organic materials collection areas may
be located either indoors or outdoors and may be included as part
of the same enclosure where solid waste is collected. In no case shall
any recyclable materials and/or organic materials collection area
be farther from a dwelling unit or structure than the solid waste
collection area which serves the same dwelling unit or structure.
B. Signage.
Collection areas and containers shall be clearly labeled to indicate
the type and condition of discarded materials accepted.
C. Space
Allocation Based on an Approved Recycling Plan. In lieu of having
specific collection area space allocation tables or formulas, and
to allow maximum flexibility, a recycling plan may be submitted by
the applicant which details the recyclable materials and/or organic
materials collection system from the individual workstations to the
final collection area and/or the size of interim and final collection
areas (which must be minimum of one hundred twenty-eight square feet)
and type of materials collected.
