RESOLUTION OF THE CiTY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA OPPOSING AB 1626 (MIGDEN), BUILDING STANDARDS
WHEREAS, AB 1626 would overturn the appellate court decision and require the
Building Standards Commission to adopt and enforce only those standards included in the
International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) codes; and
WHEREAS, this action wold prevent the Building Standards Commission from adopting
the most effective and efficient codes for construction in California, and sets a precedent for
allowing the State Legislature to determine appropriate codes; and
WHEREAS, in addition to the obvious concern with allowing non-experts to specify
standards about which they are not necessarily knowledgeable, this bill will require the
Building Standards Commission to appeal henceforth to the Assembly, Senate and Governor
for special legislation to enact future changes to the state's building codes each year; and
WHEREAS, the recommendation to oppose AB 1626 is based on the Legislative
Committee's desire to prevent the politicization of building standards in California which are
enforced by city and county building officials.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council c~f the City of Ch.ula Vista
does hereby oppose AB 842 (Migden), Charter Schools.
