Subsection 6104.2 of the 2025 California Fire Code is amended to read as follows:
6104.2 Maximum capacity within established limits. Storage of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) containers shall not be permitted within the city where natural gas mains exist. Upon the installation of natural gas mains, conversion from LPG to natural gas must be made within thirty (30) days of the installation of the mains. When an area is annexed to the city and no natural gas mains exist, the use of LPG may be continued until natural gas mains are installed. If natural gas mains exist within the area of annexation, conversion from LPG to natural gas shall be made within thirty (30) days of annexation.
Exception: Installations of LPG containers may be permitted within the city if used for filling of portable containers for retail sales, or industrial operators where natural gas would not provide a workable substitute.
(Ord. No. 9.2025, § 8(Exh. C), 9/9/25.)
