Every such display or use must be handled by a qualified operator approved by the Chief, and shall be of such a nature, and located, discharged or fired in such a manner that, in the opinion of the Chief after proper investigation, it will .not be hazardous to property or endanger any person." ~ c. Section 1003 ("Fire-Extinguishing Systems") of the Fire Code is amended by adding the following language to Subsection 1003.1 thereof: 951212 10512-00001 syc 0592356 ., "Subject to the approval of the Building Official and with the concurrence of the Chief, an automatic sprinkler system is required to be installed in connection with the following: (a) Any new building constructed as a nonresidential occupancy that exceeds ten thousand (10,000) square feet of floor area; and (b) Any existing nonresidential building having less than ten thousand (10,000) square feet of floor area which, after completion of major alterations or - additions, will have in excess of ten thousand (10,000) square feet of floor area. Any automatic sprinkler system installed in a nonresidential building described above in subparagraphs (a) and.(b) must be equipped with a device, approved by the Chief, that automatically transmits a water flow alarm to the Fire Department upon activation of the system. Exception: These requirements do not apply to any freestanding parking structure. The term "freestanding parking structure" means a garage with one or more levels devoted solely to parking that is structurally independent and not part of a larger building. A garage is deemed to be structurally independent even though it is connected to another building by pedestrian bridges." d. Article 79 ("Flammable and Combustible Liquids") of 'the Fire Code is amended by amending Subsection 79.02.2.2.1 thereof to read as follows: "7902.2.2.1 Locations where aboveground tanks are prohibited.

Appeals to the Board of Appeals shall.be processed and determined in accordance with the, provisions contained in Subsection 11-1.2 of Section 11-1 of Chapter 11 of the Municipal Code." Section 2. The modifications to the Uniform Fire Code enacted by this Ordinance are merely a_,continuation of similar modifications made to earlier editions of this uniform code, and all of these modifications, whether previously enacted or enacted in this Ordinance, are reasonably necessary because of local climate, characterized by hot, dry summers, followed by strong Santa Ana winds and heavy winter rains, the location in Southern California, and the relatively flat terrain of the City characterized by geologic instability. • Section. 3. To the extent the provisions of this Ordinance are substantially the same as previous .provisions of the Lynwood Municipal Code, these provisions will be construed as continuations of those provisions and not as new enactments. Section 4. State law requires that localities adopt the uniform bulding_and,fire codes, and any modifications thereto, by December•28, 1995. It is essential that the City have in effect. on that date uniform building and fire codes that comport with state law and contain those modifications necessitated by unique geographic, geologic and climatic conditions. In the absence of immediate effectiveness, the provisions of the uniform building and fire codes unique to the City's special circumstances will not be in place, and this will have a detrimental effect on the public health, safety and welfare. The modifications to the uniform building and fire codes contain vital provisions regarding, administrative. procedures, fire prevention, fire suppression, and other similar matters necessitated by the City's exposure to-Santa Ana winds. and relatively flat terrain characterized by geologic .instability. For these reasons, this Ordinance is an urgency ordinance necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety within the meaning of Section 37937(b) of the Government Code. Therefore, this Ordinance takes effect .immediately. • Section 5. This Ordinance is effective upon adoption and becomes operative on December 28, 1995.. .Section 6. The City: Clerk is directed to certify to the passage of this Ordinance and to cause it to be published or posted as required by law. PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this day of 1995. ATTEST: Paul H.
