The CITY COUNCIL of the CITY OF BURLINGAME does hereby ordain as follows:
6
7
Section 1. For more than a decade, contractors, labor organizations, manufacturers, and
8
the State of California have fought over the usability of various types of materials in construction.
9
While the 1998 Uniform Plumbing Code would allow certain applications of what is known as
10
CPVC and PEX piping in water distribution, the State of California declined to adopt those
11
provisions because the State had not completely reviewed the issue. Manufacturers have now
12
brought suit against the State to compel the adoption of some or all of those provisions. The City
13
cannot afford the costs of getting caught between these warring groups, so therefore, the provisions
14
regarding CPVC and PEX.should be dropped.

16
Section 2. Section 18.12.035 is repealed.
17
18
Section 3. Section 18.12.040 is repealed.

Section 4. This ordinance shall be published as required by law.
