AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA REPEALING
SECTION 15.36.160 OF THE CHULA VISTA MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATING TO SPILL CONTROL AND SPILL CONTAINMENT OF
FLAMMABLE/COMBUSTIBLE LIQUIDS
WHEREAS, during the 1991 Uniform Fire Code adoption process, Article 79 of the Fire
Code was amended locally to include safeguards for flammable liquid overspill and
containment; and
WHEREAS, the 1994 Uniform Fire Code contains a change to Article 79 which now
provides for better safeguards to prevent storage tank overfil1 situations and provides for
appropriately sized spill-containment devices; and
WHEREAS, as this level of protection in the Fire Code is now greater than that which
is contained in the Municipal Code, the Municipal Code amendment to Article 79 is no longer
necessary and staff recommends its repeal.
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION I: That Section 15.36.160 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code is hereby
repealed.
SECTION il: This ordinance shall take effect and be in full force on the thirtieth day
from and after its second reading and adoption.
