ORDINANCE 184081 Ordinance 184081 is concerned with the Time Limits for Compliance for the seismic retrofit program. Specifically, Ordinance 184081 applies the time limits compliance in the following manner:</p> <li>The owner is expected to submit the structural analysis to demonstrate existing compliance within 2 years of receiving the order. </li> <li> The owner is expected to submit a structural analysis to demonstrate a proposed structural alteration to meet seismic retrofit requirements within 2 years of receiving the order. </li> <li>The owner is expected to submit the plans for demolition of the building within 2 years of receiving the order. </li> <li> The owner is expected to obtain all necessary permits for rehabilitation or demolition within three and a half (3.5) years after the service of the order. </li> <li> The owner is expected to complete construction or demolition work under all necessary permits within seven (7) years after service of the order. </li><br> <p class="page_content">You Need to Retrofit if: While this can all be quite confusing and if you feel like you might not need to consider a retrofit because it doesn’t match the criteria mentioned above, wait up! The ordinances only apply to wooden structures and non-ductile concrete structures for now. However, it is always wise to check if your building is earthquake ready and if a retrofit may be required. The Department of Building and Safety has already identified the buildings that require a seismic retrofit in the state of California and has sent out notices to each of the property owners requiring them to start work on their properties.
