Informational Workshop
on January 4, 2011: The City hosted
an
informational workshop on the 2010 California Building Standards

Administration section of the adopted code. The workshop was held on
January 4, 2011 from 6:00.m. to 8:00p.m. in Founders Hall at the
Calabasas Library (200 Civic Center Way in Calabasas).

Background: The State of California mandates that the
California Building Standards Code is reviewed, revised, and adopted
on a triennial cycle. The State passes a building code that sets the
building standards for the entire state. The code is next reviewed
by Los Angeles County. Los Angeles County then passes the
California Building Standards Code with amendments to the Scope and
Administration section of the code. The City of Calabasas is not
required to use LA County’s amendments to the building code, however
their amendments to the code can be used as a guide in amending the
Scope and Administration section of the code. Amendments made to the
building code can only make the code more stringent. The building
code was last adopted, by the Calabasas City Council, on November
14, 2007.
December 2010 Update: On November 24, 2010 the Council
adopted
Urgency Ordinance No. 2010-278-U, adopting the 2010 California
Building Standards Code with the City’s amendments. Links to
information about the code as it was adopted are provided below,
along with the
link to the footage of the November 24 Council meeting.
