also be included as Fire Zone 1.

In your memo of November 7, 1977, you agreed that that
portion of the City zoned B-4 should be designated as fire
Zone 1 and suggested that the area zoned B-5 also be included
in this zone:
This Division would like to suggest that you consider the
advisability of assigning a Fire Zone 2 to those areas zoned
B-5.
The downtown, B-4 area, would be buffered on the North by
freeway, the South by the river and the East and West by a
transitional fire Zone 2 with the rest of the City Fire Zone
3.
The Fire Zone 2 classification would prahibit hazardous
occupancies in the district without imposing construction
. requirements which could prove a deterrent to development for
cost reasons.
Other restrictions in the code pertaining to buildinq heights,
floor areas, location of building on property and fire �
resistivity of exterior walls would, we believe, be adequate
for the City' s needs.

RE: Repeal Legislative Code, SectPon 4,02 "Boundaries of FPre Limits"

Limits."
,
ACTION REQUESTED: ,
,_
Enact an ordinance defPnPng Limits of Fire Zones 1 , ( l and III
witf�in the City.
PURPOSE AND RATIONA,LE FOR THIS ACTION:
1 . Present fire limit regulations conflict with Srate code terminology and
were promulgated as part of a now obsolete BuildPng Code.
2. CF�anging conditions and characteristics of the areas encompassing present
fire limits have affected the needs in the.Midway District and th boundary
descriptions in it and the downtown fire district. '
3. Designating the B-4 zoning district as Fire Zone I would employ an existing '
defined area equivalent approximately to tf�e previously designated downtown
fire district and require the most stringent construction and occupancy cantrols
contained in the Building Code.
4. Designating the 6-5 zoned district as Fire Zone II woutd effectively buffer
the downtown area by restrictino hazardous occup�ncies within a (see attached sheet) .
