17958.7 the City of Burlingame
finds that the
amendments to the Uniform
Building Code
regarding fire retardant roofs are
needed and
are reasonably necessary due
to the various
climatic, geographical and
topographical elements which exist in the city.
wildland fires
each year.
During the summer
months the average temperatures in the City of
Burlingame is
usually
between 70-90 degrees fahrenheit
with light to gusty westerly winds.
These drying
winds,
mixed with the natural vegetation which is dominant throughout the area, creates a hazardous
fuel condition which has caused extensive grass and brushland fires. With more and more
development encroaching into these wooded and grass covered areas, wind driven fires could
have severe consequences as was evident in the Oakland Hills fire.
The hilly portions of both cities contain dense shrub -type vegetation and a heavy growth
of natural grasses. The city and
surrounding areas suffer several
wildland fires
each year.
The experience of several
disastrous fires
within Alameda,
Contra Costa,
Monterey and
Santa Clara Counties have demonstrated the need for other fire protecfion features. While it is
clearly
understood Chat
the adoption of the amendments
regarding fire
retardant roofs
may not
prevent
the incident of
fire, the implementation of these
amendments
to the Uniform
Building
Code may reduce
the severity and
potential for loss
of
life and property."
