A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO
FIRE DEPARTMENT'S ANNUAL INSPECTIONS
PERFORMANCE PURSUANT TO THE CALIFORNIA HEALTH
AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 13146.4.
WHEREAS, the California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.4 requires fire departments
providing fire protection services to annually inspect and report to City Council inspection status of
buildings that are being used as public or private schools, hotels, motels, lodging houses, and apartment
houses; and
WHEREAS, the South San Francisco Fire Department maintains a comprehensive inspection
program, working to ensure that all occupancies within the City are inspected for fire and life safety on an
annual or biennial basis; and
WHEREAS, while California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.4 requires only the reporting
of public or private schools, hotels, motels, lodging houses, and apartment houses, the South San Francisco
Fire Department has elected to include data on additional occupancies within the City that pose a risk,
including places of assembly, gas stations, auto repair facilities, laboratories, care facilities, hospitals, and
fire protection systems; and
WHEREAS, the purpose of state law requires fire departments to review and report on annual state
mandated occupancy inspections within their jurisdictions, which allows the City Council an opportunity to
evaluate Fire Prevention performance; and
WHEREAS, the Fire Department Inspection Compliance Report, hereto attached as Exhibit A,
ensures compliance with California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.4 and demonstrates the City's
commitment to improving public safety.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of South San Francisco
does hereby approve the South San Francisco Fire Department's annual inspections performance pursuant to
the California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.4.
