Editor's note— Ord. No. 1484, §§ 1 and 2, Nov. 24, 2025, repealed the former Ch. 15.14, §§ 15.14.010—15.14.090, and enacted a new Ch. 15.14 as set out herein. The former Ch. 15.14 pertained to similar subject matter and derived from Ord. No. 1461, § 5(Exh. D), adopted Nov. 28, 2022.

The city adopts the International Property Maintenance Code, 2024 Edition, together with the amendments set forth in this chapter, for the purpose of prescribing regulations for the health and safety of its inhabitants. One copy is on file and available for public inspection in the building division. From the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter, the provisions of the International Property Maintenance Code, 2024 Edition, as amended, shall be controlling within the city. The International Property Maintenance Code is adopted as a local property-maintenance ordinance for existing structures and premises. It is not a building standard within HSC § 18909 and shall not authorize work contrary to the California Building Standards Code (Title 24) or State Housing Law regulations (Title 25). Where conflicts occur, Title 24/Title 25 govern.
