designated in the City's Standard Improvement Specifications and
Drawings (ORD 2451, 1965:prior code S 4404).
14.44.030 Limitations.
Frontage improvements shall be required in relationship to the value
of on -site improvements as set forth in A thru D below. These values
are as of January, 1991 and shall be adjusted annually in accordance
with the most current "Engineering News Record Index" (ENRI). The
value of on -site improvements shall be as determined by the City on
the approved building permit.
For remodels and additions to existing structures, but not for new
structures, the value of the following improvements shall not be
counted when estimating the total valuation of project improvements;
landscaping, fences, retaining walls, reroofs, painting, interior
decorations and fixtures, signs and their supports, normal maintenance
and repairs, re- surfacing of improved parking areas and structural
modifications associated with strengthening of unreinforced masonry
buildings pursuant to Ordinance No.366.
Where on -site paving of parking areas is proposed, the Director of
Public Works shall estimate the value of the parking lot improvements
based on an average per square foot cost of $2.50 as of January 1991,
shall adjust this amount in accordance with the most current ENRI,
and shall apply this cost with any other on -site improvement values in
determining off -site requirements for the project.
A. Whenever the value of the proposed on -site improvements is
greater than $5000 and exceeds value of the required frontage
improvements, such frontage improvements shall be required.
B. Whenever the value of the proposed on -site improvements is
greater than $5000 but is less than the value of the required
frontage improvements, the applicant/ owner may request the City
to install the frontage improvements subject to a reimbursement
agreement whereby the owner /applicant agrees to repay the City in
full and in a form acceptable to the City.

preceding five years is equal to or greater than the value in
paragraph C above.
14.44.040 Exceptions
The requirement for construction of new frontage improvements may be
waived or modified by the Director of Public Works in cases where he
determines that existing non - standard frontage improvements do not
create potential safety hazards for pedestrians or motorists, cause a
liability for the City, result in drainage problems, or compromise
handicapped accessibility requirements. In granting such waivers, the
Director of Public Works may require any degree of corrective work to
existing frontage improvements he deems necessary.
14.44.050 Construction of Improvements by City
Whenever the approval requested from the City is for additional
development on a currently developed property, (as distinguished from
a vacant property or a full demolition and reconstruction), the
applicant may request the City to construct the required frontage
improvements concurrent with the private on -site improvements at
City's cost under a reimbursement agreement whereby the
owner /applicant agrees to repay the City in full and in a form
acceptable to the City. Such arrangements must be mutually agreeable
to both parties. Full reimbursement to the City shall be in equal
annual installments including interest over a period not to exceed
five years. The City shall place a lien on the property and /or shall
obtain other financial securities as set forth in Section 14.44.050 of
this Chapter. Such agreements shall be approved by the City Council
upon recommendation of the City Administrator.
14.44.060 Permit Issuance
No building permit or development approval shall be issued for any
projects determined to require frontage improvements under the
provisions of this section, until plans for the required improvements
have been submitted to and approved by the Director of Public Works.
No final occupancy approval shall be granted by the Building Official
until all required improvements have been installed to the
satisfaction of the Director of Public Works.
14.44.070 Agreement - Bond
Prior to the issuance of building permit, all persons required to
install frontage improvements under the provisions of this ordinance,
shall execute with the City an agreement to install said improvements
in accordance with the provisions of this section and shall post
financial security in a form acceptable to the Finance Director in an
amount of 150% of the estimated cost of the_improvements and related
work as approved by the Director of Public Works.

14.44.080 Appeals
Any person aggrieved by the requirements of this section shall have
the right to appeal to the Planning Commission . If an appeal is
made, it must be filed with the Community Development Department not
later than 10 calendar days after the applicant is formally notified
of the required improvements. The appeal shall state the reason why
the requirements are inconsistent with the provisions of this
ordinance and should not be applied. The Planning Commission may
grant the appeal and waive all or part of the requirements when, based
on a report by the Director of Public Works, it is determined the
following conditions exist:
A) that the waiver of improvements shall not constitute a grant of
special privilege inconsistent with the limitations upon other
properties in the vicinity and district in which the subject
property is situated; and
B) that because of special circumstances applicable to subject
property, including size, shape, topography, location or
surroundings, the strict application of this section is found to
deprive subject property of privileges enjoyed by other
properties in the vicinity and under identical zone
classification; and
C) that the waiver is found consistent with the intent of the
General Plan; or
D) that such improvements already exist in good condition and
conform to City Standard Specifications on the entire property
frontage; or
E) the property involved is part of an area within which
construction of such improvements has been budgeted by the City,
or is within an approved assessment district;
F) that waiver of the required improvements will not create
potential safety hazards for pedestrians or motorists, cuase a
liability for the City, result in drainage problems, or
compromise handicapped accessibility requirements..
Any person aggrieved by the decision of the Planning Commission shall
have the right of further appeal to the City Council on the same basis
as the appeal to the Planning Commission.
Section 3. This Ordinance shall take effect immediately and
automatically.

findings:
1. Water is a precious commodity and finite resource
in limited supply in the central coast area and especially

required to install temporary desalination equipment at
great expense to the people of Morro Bay; and

safety and welfare of the citizens of Morro Bay that the
city amend Municipal Code by adding section 13.04.348 to

ORDINANCE NO. 395
PAGE 2
13.04.248 RETROFITTING UPON TRANSFER OR SALE OF PROPERTY
A. Every property owner, prior to sale or transfer of any
real property upon which is located any structure connected
to the City's water supply, shall retrofit said structure
with the water saving devices required for new construction
as set forth in Section 14.24.050 of this Code. In cases
where the building official determines the use of such
fixtures in existing structures would fail to meet Uniform
Plumbing Code Standards, fixtures using the least amount of
water which do meet the Uniform Plumbing Code Standards
shall be utilized.
B. In cases where a buyer intends to demolish all
structures on such property within ninety days from the date
of transfer, said structure need not be retrofitted prior to
transfer provided a covenant and a bond are filed with the
City as follows:
1. The property owner shall file with the City Clerk a
noterized covenant agreeing to either demolish all
structures located on said property connected to the
City Water system, within ninety days from the date of
transfer or to perform the retrofit required in Section
A hereinabove together with a faithful performance
bond, in a form and issued by a surety company
satisfactory to City in an amount equal to One hundred,
fifty percent (150 %) of the full cost of retrofitting
all such structures securing faithful performance of
said agreement.
2. Said agreement shall also authorize and grant the
City permission to enter onto said property and to
perform such retrofit in the event the property owner
fails to do so. Further the property owner shall agree
to reimburse city for all cost incurred by City in the

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MORRO BAY ANNOUNCING
FINDINGS AND ADOPTING AMENDMENTS TO THE MORRO BAY MUNICIPAL CODE
CHAPTER 13.20.080 A, B.1, AND B.2
T H E C I T Y C O U N C I L
CITY OF MORRO BAY, CALIFORNIA
The City Council of the City of Morro Bay does ordain as follows:
Section 1. The Council does hereby make the following findings:
1. The procedures to be followed by the Planning Department in
determining whether a project or a change in land use will
require additional water equivalencies are contained in Section
13.20.080 and in Section VIII of the Water Equivalency Operating
Procedures; and
2. The language contained in these two sectidns is ambiguous and
requires clarification and modification to the system of credits
of water equivalencies to existing or former uses; and
3. The Planning Commission on October 15th, December 17, 1990 and
January 21, 1991 conducted duly noticed PUBLIC HEARINGS to con-
sider the report of the Planning Director recommending certain
modifications to the operating procedures currently in effect;
and
4. The Planning Commission did on January 21st make recommendations
to the City Council; and
5. The City Council on February 11, 1991 and March 11, 1991 did
hold a duly noticed PUBLIC HEARINGS to consider the staff
report, Planning Commission recommendations and testimony of all
interested persons; and
6. The Environmental Coordinator has reviewed the project and has
determined it to be exempt for the purposes of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and no further documentation is
deemed necessary.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY ORDAINED by the City Council of the
City of Morro Bay that Title 13.20.080 of the Municipal Code be
amended as follows:
SECTION 2: Chapter 13.20.080 A., B.1. and B.2. are amended to read
(existing language to be deleted is struck - through and new language is
underlined):
Ordinance No. 394
Page 2
• •
13.20.080 Allocation of water equivalency units to projects
A. No project as defined in this chapter shall be permitted
unless it is first reviewed by the community development director to
ascertain whether it will increase likely water usage and thereby
needs water equivalencies. The director shall use the "water equiva-
lency table" contained in 13.20.070 for determining water equivalen-
cies for various uses. If a particular use is not listed on the table
the director, shall estimate equivalencies for that use. Generally,
the water usage records of a sample of like uses already operating in
the City, shall be used if available. The time frame for the sampling
should be at least seven years of use, if available. Any other rele-
vant information may be used in making a reasonable estimate. The
Directors' decisions regarding estimates of water usage may be
appealed to the Planning Commission. If a proposed project, as
defined in this chapter, is found to require water equivalencies, it
shall not be approved for construction, or in cases of changes to, or
the expansion or intensification of, existing uses, the occupancy
shall not be approved until and unless the required water equivalen-
cies have been obtained in accordance with the annual water equiva-
lency program, except as provided herein.
B. The following types of projects shall not be required to
obtain equivalencies through the equivalency program:
1. Projects which involve the demolition of a building where
the number of water equivalencies required by the new uses
is less than or equal to those credited to the demolished
building(s). After January 01, 1994, water equivalencies
credited to demolished buildings shall be limited to the
highest number of water equivalencies credited to legally
permitted uses in the buildings within the last ten (10)
years, based on the most current water equivalency table
contained in Section 13.20.070 of the Morro Bay Municipal
Code and any building demolished more than ten (10) years
previous shall not be credited with equivalencies;
"Legally permitted" buildings, uses, or occupancies shall
mean; any building, use or occupancy for which any required
use permit, building permit or business licence had been
secured and validated, or any legal non - conforming use.
2. Projects which involve the replacement of a use or occu-
pancy where the number of water equivalencies required by
the new use or occupancy is less than or equal to those
credited to the use or occupancy being replaced. After
January 1, 1994, water equivalencies credited to the exist-
ing use or occupancy shall be limited to the highest number
of water equivalencies credited to legally permitted uses
on the site within the last ten (10) years based on the
most current water equivalency table contained in

interested persons wishing to testify; and
3. The addition of new residential development, is regulated on an
annual basis by the City Council under the terms of Ordinance
266, with not more than 77 dwellings being permitted in any given

ment proposals for residential projects, the City Council must
make a water allocation for the year; and

partial water allocation for any given year in order to conserve
municipal water supplies; and
5. During such periods, commercial redevelopment, or redevelopment
of residential properties may take place under existing code pro-
visions so long as no additional water equivalencies are
required, but the addition of new residential uses are not cur-

units may be possible within existing on -site water
equivalencies without adversely affecting municipal water
supplies; and
7. In order to allow such projects to proceed during years when no
water allocation, or a reduced water allocation is made by the
Council, provisions need to be provided in the Municipal Code to
ensure conformance with the limitations of Ordinance 266, and to
provide fairness and equal opportunity for all applicants consis-
tent with the long term waiting list; and
8. The Environmental Coordinator has reviewed the project and has
determined it to be exempt for the purposes of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and no further documentation is
deemed necessary.
Section 2. Chapter 13.20 of the Morro Bay Municipal Code is
amended as follows and shown by underlining:
J.3.20.085 Special Building Allocation

to award all of the water allocations permitted by Ordinance 266.
the City Council may by resolution. authorize building permits to
Pe issued for new uses within the limits established in Ordinance

equivalencies on -site. have no necessity for new water allocation
from the City.
B. proposals for residential projects which are being converted from
former non - residential uses or for residential re- development
projects which increase the number of residential units on the
property may be eligible to be considered for a Special Building
Allocation when those projects:

to prior water use on that property: and
2. are consistent with the annual building allocation
established by the Council as required by Ordinance 266:
3. will not require more water equivalencies than the amount

manner required for any necessary discretionary approvals. The
planning Director on a quarterly basis. shall provide the City

year. During each quarterly authorization. those projects
highest on the long term waiting list shall have priority over
other applicants for access to the available Special Allocation
permits. except as set forth in item D. below.
D. Zn accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section
13.20.090 of the Morro Bay Municipal Code. and as subsequently
amended. projects which qualify as "low and very low income
housing" developments shall be given priority to Special Building
allocation permits over other applications.
E. Special Buildina Allocations will have no unit carry -overs from

tion but that fail to meet the criteria above. fail to obtain anv
required approvals. or that meet the criteria but withdraw their
request. shall be returned to their original relative position on
the long -term building allocation list.

ORDINANCE NO. 382
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MORRO BAY
ANNOUNCING FINDINGS AND ADOPTING AMENDMENTS TO CHAPTER 17 OF
THE MORRO BAY MUNICIPAL CODE TO AMEND PRIOR ORDINANCE NO.
350 AND THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP AND ZONING TEXT IN THE AREA
BETWEEN HIGHWAY 41 AND MORRO CREEK
THE CITY COUNCIL of City of Morro Bay, California does
ordain as follows:
SECTION I The City Council makes the following findings:
1. Following extensive public hearings in 1988 and 1989,
the City Council adopted Resolution 43 -89 amending the
General Plan and Local Coastal Land Use Plan in order
to incorporate the North Main Street Specific Plan.
2. In accordance with state law, these amendments were
submitted to the California Coastal Commission for
certification prior to taking legal effect.
3. The Coastal Commission held public hearings in March,
April, and May 1990 to consider to requested
amendments, and did certify all portions of the
requested amendments with the exception of the area
between Highway 41 and Morro Creek known in the North
Main Specific Plan as Area D.
4. Justification by the Coastal Commission for denial of
the proposed plan amendments in Area D was due to the
desire to retain the area in its current designation
for visitor serving commercial land uses, and
specifically to enable recreational vehicle usage at an
existing recreational and trailer park in the area.
5. To achieve consistency between the Council's earlier
action in adopting plan modifications by passage of
Resolution 43 -89 and the Coastal Commission's denial of
the requested amendments, the City is now required to
modify the North Main Street Specific Plan to return
Area D to its former designation in the General Plan
and Coastal Land Use Plan.
6. For purposes of the California Environmental Quality
Act, the project is exempt as the functional equivalent
of an EIR under the general exemption provided to the
Local Coastal Program process; the Coastal Commission
is the lead agency for purposes of CEQA; no further
City documentation is required.
• •
7. The City Council of the City of Morro Bay, California,
held a duly noticed PUBLIC HEARING on September 10,
1990 to consider amendments to Chapter 17 of the
Municipal Code in Area D of the North Main Street
Specific Plan to achieve conformance with action by the
California Coastal Commission.
8. During the PUBLIC HEARING and after considering the
staff report and comments of all persons who
contributed, the City Council did find the following
additional facts and reasons to justify their action in
this matter:
a. The conclusions and findings of the California
Coastal Commission as contained in the District
Director's report of June 26, 1990 are accurate
and appropriate in this case.
b. Redesignation of Area D for visitor serving uses
will benefit provision of additional recreational
vehicles in an existing recreational vehicle and
trailer park and will thereby support visitor use
of the area consistent with the Coastal Act.
c. Redesignation of Area D for visitor serving uses
will not adversely affect other properties in the
area which will continue in conforming status and
will retain reasonable future land use options.
d. Redesignating Area D for visitor serving uses will
not be inconsistent with good planning concepts in
terms of the overall neighborhood.
e. No further report on this matter is required from
the Planning Commission in that the Commission
previously considered the use and application of
visitor serving uses in Area D when it made it's
original recommendation concerning amendments to
the Council.
SECTION 2 Chapter 17 of the Morro Bay Municipal Code
(Official Zone Map) is amended as shown on Figure A,
attached hereto, and made a part of this ordinance.

ORDINANCE NO. 375
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MORRO BAY,
ANNOUNCING FINDINGS AND ADOPTING AMENDMENTS TO THE MORRO BAY
MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 13.20.
THE CITY COUNCIL
City of Morro Bay, California
The City Council of the City of Morro Bay does ordain as follows:
Section 1. The Council does hereby make the following findings:
1. Current provisions of Chapter 13.20 regarding the length of
time water equivalency awards remain valid are not
consistent with the time periods associated with the time
periods of conditional use permits, and coastal development
permits which run for periods of not less that one year.
This inconsistency creates unnecessary confusion and
hardship for applicants and project proponents, and also
causes unnecessary administrative work for the City in
tracking equivalency expiration dates; and
2. Experience by the City in administering the water
allocations in recent years has shown that existing use
permit, coastal development permit and ministerial processes
contain adequate time limits and controls to ensure the
orderly and timely usage of water equivalency awards granted
by the city, and that separate time limits on water
equivalency awards serve no practical purpose; and
3. Adjusting the time period for which water equivalency awards
are valid to conform with time limits on other approvals
granted for the same project will contribute to the overall
coordination, efficiency, convenience and rationality of the
entire process, and will help better comply with the intent
of the state's Permit Streamlining Act; and
Section 2. Chapter 13.20, Section 13.20.100 of the Morro Bay
Municipal Code is amended as follows:
13.20.100 Time limit for using water equivalency units.
A. If water equivalency units have been awarded to a project by
the planning commission, that award shall remain in force
for the period in which all applicable (related)
discretionary and /or ministerial or administrative approvals
are valid.
• •
Ordinance No. 375
Page Two
B. Any extensions granted to such permits prior to their
expiration shall automatically extend the water equivalency
award to the new expiration date. Expiration of a project's
conditional use permit or coastal development permit or
other ministerial or administrative approvals shall result
in the expiration of water equivalency units awarded the
project. Allocation of water equivalency units expiring in
this manner cannot be reinstated. In such cases, new water
allocations must be obtained for new or reactivated projects
on a property.

MORRO BAY MUNICIPAL CODE TO ESTABLISH A CITY -WIDE CURBSIDE
RECYCLING PROGRAM
T H E C I T Y C O U N C I L
City of Morro Bay, California
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Morro Bay adopted
September 14, 1981 Ordinance No. 214 amending Chapter 8.16 of the
Morro Bay Municipal Code to establish a mandatory refuse
collection system; and
WHEREAS, there is a solid waste disposal crisis at national,
state and local levels due to less landfill capacity and an
increasing volume of solid waste generated by individuals and
commercial, industrial, institutional, and government sectors; and
WHEREAS, the City's Refuse Collection Franchise Board has
studied for approximately two years alternative methods of
recycling to divert recyclable materials from the waste stream and
disposal at a landfill and has also studied related issues,
variables, cost factors, efficiency, effectiveness, advantages,
and disadvantages; and
WHEREAS, the California Integrated Solid Waste Management Act
of 1989 (AB 939 -Sher) mandates waste diversion goals of 25% and
50% by January 1, 1995 and 2000, respectively, and requires the
preparation of a Source Reduction and Recycling Element (SRRE) by
each city and county by July 1, 1991 as well as implementation
according to a timetable in each SRRE as approved by the newly -
formed California Integrated Waste Management and Recycling Board;
and
WHEREAS, the League of California Cities, County Supervisors
Association of California, and California Solid Waste Management
Board are urging cities and counties to implement curbside
recycling programs as soon as possible concurrent with the
preparation of SRREs to gain credit toward the aforesaid mandated
waste diversion goals, thereby substantially increasing public
awareness of the solid waste disposal crisis at national, state,
and local levels and the need to recycle; and
• 6
ORDINANCE NO. 369
PAGE 2
WHEREAS, upon the recommendation of the Refuse Collection
Franchise Board, the City Council of the City of Morro Bay
approved on January 8, 1990 the implementation of a City -wide
voluntary participation residential and commercial curbside
recycling program as proposed by Morro Bay Garbage Service (MBGS),
the City's franchised refuse collector, including certain
conditions recommended by the City Refuse Collection Franchise
Board to which Morro Bay Garbage Service agreed, and corresponding
8.38% across - the -board rate increase for all residential and
commercial refuse accounts to fund said program regardless of a
refuse collection customer's participation in said recycling
program, and directed Staff to prepare appropriate implementation
documents for adoption at a future meeting; and
WHEREAS, the Refuse Collection Franchise Agreement between
City and MBGS grants to MBGS rights to all solid wastes generated
within the City of Morro Bay and gives MBGS the first right of
refusal to collect and remove recyclable materials from the
premises of all residential and commercial refuse collection
customers; and
WHEREAS, City and MBGS desire to provide for the curbside
collection and removal by MBGS from the City of Morro Bay certain
recyclable materials from residential and commercial refuse
customers pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in an
amendment to the Refuse Collection Franchise Agreement dated March
12, 1990; and
WHEREAS, the solution to the solid waste disposal crisis is
second in importance only to the solution to the City's water
problem; and
WHEREAS, recycling is no longer an optional solid waste
management strategy; rather, it is a necessary element in an
effective integrated solid waste management program and has a cost
factor as does refuse collection; and
WHEREAS, landfill capacity is a scarce resource and it is in
the public interest and essential to the preservation and
enhancement of the health, safety, and welfare of all citizens of
the City of Morro Bay to establish said curbside recycling
program, thereby reducing the waste stream disposed at a landfill
and encouraging public awareness of the need to recycle and change
other aspects of the public's individual and collective waste
disposal habits.

CHAPTER 14.18
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF MORRO BAY
ESTABLISHING A SEISMIC SAFETY PROGRAM BY
REDUCING EARTHQUAKE HAZARD IN EXISTING BUILDINGS
The City Council of the City of Morro Bay does hereby ordain as
follows:
SECTION 1. Title 14 of the Morro Bay Municipal Code is hereby amended
to add a new Chapter 14.18 as follows:
SECTION 14.18.10 - PURPOSE.
The purpose of this chapter is to promote public safety and welfare by
reducing the risk of death or injury that may result from the effects
of earthquakes on unreinforced masonry bearing wall buildings
constructed prior to the County of San Luis Obispo's adoption of the
1955 edition of the Uniform Building Code. Such buildings have been
widely recognized for sustaining life- hazardous damage, including
partial or complete collapse during moderate to strong earthquakes.
The provisions of this chapter are intended as minimum standards for
structural seismic resistance established primarily to reduce the risk
of life loss or injury. Compliance with these standards will not
necessarily prevent loss of life or injury or prevent earthquake
damage to rehabilitated buildings. This chapter does not require
alteration of existing electrical, plumbing, mechanical or fire safety
systems unless they constitute a hazard to life or property.
This chapter provides systematic procedures and standards for
identification and classification of unreinforced masonry bearing wall
buildings based on their present use. Priorities, time periods and
standards are also established under which these buildings are
required to be structurally analyzed and anchored. Where the analysis
finds deficiencies, this chapter requires the building to be
strengthened or demolished.
SECTION 14.18.20 - SCOPE.
The provisions of this chapter shall apply to all buildings
constructed or under construction prior to July, 1957, which on the
effective date of this ordinance have unreinforced masonry bearing
walls as defined herein.
1
• •
EXCEPTION: This section shall not apply to detached one or two
family dwellings and detached apartment houses containing less
than five dwelling units and used solely for residential
purposes.
SECTION 14.18.30 - DEFINITIONS.
A. For purposes of this chapter, the applicable definitions in
Sections 2302 and 2312 of the 1985 Uniform Building Code (hereinafter
1985 UBC) shall apply. Chapters 23 and 24 of the 1985 edition
of the Uniform Building Code are incorporated herein by reference and
hereby adopted for the purposes of this Chapter only and made a part
hereof as though set forth in full herein.
B. LOW RISK BUILDING: Any building, not classified as an essential
building, having an occupant load of less than 20 occupants as
determined by Section 3302(a) UBC.
C. MEDIUM RISK BUILDING: Any building, not classified as a high risk
building or an essential building, having an occupant load of 20
occupants or more as determined by Section 3302(a) UBC.
D. UNREINFORCED MASONRY BEARING WALL: A masonry wall having all of
the following characteristics:
1. Provides the vertical support for a floor or roof.
2. The total superimposed load is over 100 pounds per linear
foot.
3. The area of reinforcing steel is less than 50 percent of
that required by Section 2407(h) UBC.
SECTION 14.18.40 - RATING CLASSIFICATIONS.
The rating classifications shown in Table No. 14.18 -A are hereby
established and each building within the scope of this chapter shall
be placed in one such rating classification by the building official.
The total occupant load of the entire building as determined by
Section 3302(a) UBC shall be used to determine the rating
classification.
EXCEPTION: For the purpose of this chapter, portions of
buildings constructed to act independently when resisting seismic
forces may be placed in separate rating classifications.
2
• •
SECTION 14.18.50 - NOTIFICATION
The building official shall notify the legal owner of each
building within the scope of this ordinance that the building is
considered to be one of the general type of structures that
historically has exhibited little resistance to earthquake motion.
SECTION 14.18.60 - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS.
The owner of each building within the scope of this chapter shall
cause a structural analysis of said building to be made by a civil or
structural engineer or architect licensed by the State of California.
If the building does not meet the minimum earthquake standards
specified in this chapter, the owner shall either cause it to be
structurally altered to conform to such standards; or cause the
building to be demolished.
SECTION 14.18.70 - ADMINISTRATION.
A. Service and Order. An order, to comply with this chapter, as
provided in Section 14.18.70 B, to the owner of each building within
the scope of this chapter may be issued by the building official.
Upon receipt of a written request from the owner, the building
official shall order a building to comply.
B. Contents of Order. The order shall be in writing and shall be
served either personally or by certified or registered mail upon the
owner as shown on the last equalized assessment, and upon the person,
if any, in apparent charge or control of the building. The order
shall specify that the building has been determined by the building
official to be within the scope of this chapter and, therefore, is
required to meet the minimum seismic standards of this chapter. The
order shall specify the rating classification of the building and
shall be accompanied by a copy of Section 14.18.80 which sets forth
the owner's alternatives and time limits for compliance.
C. Appeal Form Order. The owner or person in charge or control of
the building may appeal to the Planning Commission the building
official's initial determination that the building is within the scope
of this chapter. Any such appeal must be filed with the Planning
Commission within 45 days from the service date of the order described
in Section 14.18.70 B. Any such appeal shall be decided by the

resistance to lateral loads. The facing and backing of such
walls shall be bonded so that not less than 4 percent of the
exposed face area is composed of solid headers extending not
7
• •
less than 4 inches into the backing. The distance between
adjacent full - length headers shall not exceed 24 inches
vertically or horizontally. Where the backing consists of
two or more wythes the header shall extend not less than 4
inches into the most distant wythe, or the backing wythes
shall be bonded together with separate headers whose area
and spacing conform to the foregoing.
Tension stresses due to seismic forces normal to the wall
may be neglected if the walls do not exceed the height to
thickness ratio in Table No. 14.18 -G and the in -plane shear
stresses due to seismic loads as set forth in Table No.
14.18 -J.
If the wall height- thickness ratio exceeds the specified

not less than one - quarter nor more than one -third of
the wall thickness.
All vertical bracing members shall be attached to floor and
roof construction for their design loads independently of
required wall anchors. Horizontal spacing of vertical
bracing members shall not exceed one -half the unsupported
height of the wall nor ten feet.
The wall height may be measured vertically to bracing
elements other than a floor or roof. Spacing of the bracing
elements and wall anchors shall not exceed six feet.
Bracing elements shall be detailed to minimize the
horizontal displacement of the wall by components of
vertical displacements of the floor or roof.
2. Existing Roof, Floors, Walls, Footings, and Wood Framing.

E. Minimum Acceptable Quality of Existing Unreinforced Masonry
Walls.
1. General Provisions. All unreinforced masonry walls utilized
to carry vertical loads and seismic forces parallel and
perpendicular to the wall plane shall be tested as specified
in this subsection. All masonry quality shall equal or
exceed the minimum standards established herein or shall be
removed and replaced by new materials. Alternate methods of
testing may be approved by the building official. The
quality of mortar in all masonry walls shall be determined
by performing in -place shear tests or by testing eight inch
diameter cores. Alternative methods of testing may be
approved by the building official. Nothing shall prevent
pointing with mortar of all the masonry wall joints before
the tests are first made. Prior to any pointing, the mortar
joints must be raked and cleaned to remove loose and
deteriorated mortar. Mortar for pointing shall be Type S or
N except that masonry cements shall not be used. All
preparation and mortar pointing shall be done under the
continuous inspection of a Registered Deputy Building
Inspector. At the conclusion of the inspection, the
inspector shall submit a written report to the licensed
engineer or architect responsible for the seismic analysis
of the building setting forth the result of the work
inspected. Such report shall be submitted to the building
official for approval as part of the structural analysis.
All testing shall be performed in accordance with the
requirements specified in this subsection by a testing
agency approved by the building official. An accurate
record shall be kept of all such tests and of their
locations in the building, and those results shall be
submitted to the building official for approval as part of
the structural analysis.
2. Number and Location of Tests. The minimum number of tests
shall be two per wall or line of wall elements resisting a
common force, or 1 per 1,500 square feet of wall surface,
with a minimum of eight tests in any case. The exact test
or core location shall be determined at the building site by
the licensed engineer or architect responsible for the
seismic analysis of the subject building.
3. In -Place Shear Tests. The bed joints of the outer wythe of
the masonry shall be tested in shear by laterally displacing
a single brick relative to the adjacent bricks in that
wythe. The opposite head joint of the brick to be tested
shall be removed and cleaned prior to testing. The minimum
quality mortar in 80 percent of the shear tests shall not be
less than the total of 30 psi plus the axial stress in the
wall at the point of the test. The shear stress shall be
based on the gross area of both bed joints and shall be that
at which movement of the brick is first observed.
9
• •
4. Core Tests. A minimum number of mortar test specimens equal
to the number of required cores shall be prepared from the
cores and tested as specified herein. The mortar joint of
the outer wythe of the masonry core shall be tested in shear
by placing the circular core section in a compression
testing machine with the mortar bed joint rotated 15 degrees
from the axis of the applied load. The mortar joint tested
in shear shall have an average ultimate stress of 20 psi
based on the gross area. The average shall be obtained from
the total number of cores made. If test specimens cannot be
made from cores taken, then the shear value shall be
reported as zero.
F. Testing of Shear Bolts. One - fourth of all new shear bolts and
dowels embedded in unreinforced masonry walls shall be tested by a
Special Inspector using a torque calibrated wrench to the following
minimum torques:
1/2" diameter bolts or dowels = 40 foot -lbs.
5/8" diameter bolts or dowels = 50 foot -lbs.
3/4" diameter bolts or dowels = 60 foot -lbs.
No bolts exceeding 3/4" shall be used. All nuts shall be
installed over malleable iron or plate washers when bearing on
wood and heavy cut washers when bearing on steel.
G. Determination of Allowable Stresses for Design Methods Based on
Test Results.
1. Design Shear Values. Design seismic in -plane shear stresses
shall be substantiated by tests performed as specified in
Section 14.18.100 E (3) and (4).
Design stresses shall be related to test results obtained in
accordance with Table No. 14.18 -J. Intermediate values
between 3 and 10 psi may be interpolated.
2. Design Compression and Tension Values. Compression stresses
for unreinforced masonry having a minimum design shear value
of 3 psi shall not exceed 100 psi. Design tension values
for unreinforced masonry shall not be permitted.
H. Five percent of the existing rod anchors utilized as all or part
of the required wall anchors shall be tested in pullout by an approved
testing laboratory. The minimum number tested shall be four per
floor, with two tests at walls with joists framing into the wall and
two tests at walls with joists parallel to the wall. The test
apparatus shall be supported on the masonry wall at a minimum distance
of the wall thickness from the anchor tested. The rod anchor shall be
given a preload of 300 lbs. prior to establishing a datum for
recording elongation. The tension test load reported shall be
recorded at one - eighth inch relative movement of the anchor and the
adjacent masonry surface. Results of all tests shall be reported.
10
• •
The report shall include the test results as related to the wall
thickness and joist orientation. The allowable resistance value of
the existing anchors shall be 40 percent of the average of those
tested anchors having the same wall thickness and joist orientation.
I. Qualification tests for devices used for wall anchorage shall be
tested with the entire tension load carried on the enlarged head at
the exterior face of the wall. Bond on the part of the device between
the enlarged head and the interior wall face shall be eliminated for
the qualification tests. The resistance value assigned the device
shall be 20 percent of the average of the ultimate loads.

interpreted as interfering with the long -term leases between the
city and the Morro Bay Yacht Club or commercial mooring
operators.
Installation, maintenance and inspection of moorings shall
be in accordance with and subject to city specifications and
conditions. Installation, maintenance and inspections costs
shall be at the expense of the commercial mooring operator, the

by a commercial mooring operator, the Morro Bay Yacht Club or a
private individual is abandoned, or in the event that rental fees
owed to the city are in arrears for sixty days, or in the event
that the lessee fails to comply with the inspection and repair
requirements within thirty days following the anniversary, then

by the harbor director, and upon the failure or refusal of such
owner or other person in charge of such vessel to change the
position or the securing of the vessel, as directed by the harbor
director, or if the owner or other person in charge of such
vessel cannot be readily located, the harbor director is hereby
authorized to board such vessel with such assistance as may be
necessary and change the position or securing of such vessel, and

T H E C I T Y C O U N C I L
City of Morro Bay, California
The City Council of the City of Morro Bay does ordain as follows:
Section 1. The Council hereby makes the following findings:
1. On August 22, 1988 the City Council of the City of Morro Bay
approved the annexation of a 7,894.88 square foot parcel of
land known as the Gist property to the City of Morro Bay;
and
2. Said property upon annexation to the City was automatically
designated low density residential but there is a need for
the land to receive zoning classification consistent with
the adjoining neighborhood; and
3. On the 18th day of July, 1989 the Planning Commission held a
duly noticed PUBLIC HEARING to consider the staff report and
receive public and agency comments on the potential
amendment to the Zoning Map recommended by staff to
accomplish suitable classification of the Gist parcel and
did approve said amendment and forward its recommendation to
the City Council; and
4. The Environmental Coordinator has recommended a Negative
Declaration be filed for the purposes of the California
Environmental Quality Act, and the Planning Commission
concurs with this recommendation; and
5. On the 14th day of August, 1989, the City Council held a
duly noticed PUBLIC HEARING to consider the staff report and
receive public and agency comments and recommendations made
by the Planning Commission on the potential amendment to the
Zoning Map to accomplish suitable classification of the Gist
parcel; and
6. The City Council does hereby find that the Gist parcel is a
small parcel created in the 1950's for residential purposes,
and is too small to support agricultural use and is not
suitably located for commercial or industrial uses; and

incorporation; and
8. The City Council does hereby find that the surrounding
neighborhood is developed in single family homes on
individual lots designated R -1 /S.1 by the City's Zoning Map;
and
9. The City Council does hereby find that the designation of
the Gist parcel in a residential designation consistent with
the surrounding residential properties will result in a
continuity of land use and preserve the character of the
neighborhood; and
10. The City Council does hereby find that there are no known
resource constraints or planning considerations that would
support some alternative land use designation.
11. The contemplated amendment is internally consistent with
other portions of the adopted General Plan; and
12. The amendment to the official zoning map made herein is
necessary to conform to and implement the amendment to the
Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan set forth in Resolution
No. 97 —89; and

Program zoning map amendment is in compliance with the
intent, objectives, and policies of the California Coastal
Act and that the City will carry out the Local Coastal

consistent with the California Coastal Act and all its
provisions.

(ZONING ORDINANCE - PARKING STANDARDS)
T H E C I T Y C O U N C I L
City of Morro Bay, California
The City Council of the City of Morro Bay does ordain as
follows:
Section 1. The Council hereby makes the following findings:
1. On August 10, 1988, the City Council after numerous PUBLIC
HEARINGS did adopt recommendations concerning revised
parking standards as part of the draft Circulation Element
of the General Plan; and
2. In order to maintain consistency required by State law
between the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance, it is now
appropriate to modify the parking standards of the Zoning
Ordinance to comply with the revised standards set forth in
the Circulation Element of the General Plan; and
3. On July 3, 1989, the Planning Commission did hold a duly
noticed PUBLIC HEARING and considered the staff report, and

the amendments by resolution; and

by the Coastal Commission for other communities in the
coastal zone within the central part of the State.

standard amendments are in compliance with the intent,

LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAM (ZONING ORDINANCE)
TEXT AND MAP WITHIN PLANNING AREA 5.
THE CITY COUNCIL
City of Morro Bay, California
The City Council of the City of Morro Bay does ordain as follows:
Section 1. The Council hereby makes the following findings:
1. On the 11th day of February 1987, the City Council adopted
interim ordinance 301, prohibiting development within
certain specified portions of the City of Morro Bay, and
later extended the ordinance until February 11th, 1989 or
until the completion date of the plan of study and effective
date of related zoning ordinance amendments, whichever first
occurs, in order to allow the City to evaluate alternative
land use plan designations and planning standards; and
2. The Council initiated the necessary planning studies
intended to alleviate the conditions which led to the
adoption of the urgency ordinance, and whereas such studies
were diligently pursued thereafter; and
3. In order to facilitate the broadest possible public and
agency participation and comment, numerous public meetings
and workshops were conducted by the city to present and
discuss information being generated by the city's study and
to review planning objectives, options and effects; and
4. To further increase opportunities for full public
involvement in the planning process, the City Council
appointed a citizen's advisory committee consisting of
representatives of various interest groups, residents, and
property owners within the study area; and
5. In June, 1988 the city's consultants completed the various
studies concerning amendments to the Local Coastal Program
Land Use Plan and Zoning ordinance, and transmitted these
studies and related recommendations to the city for
consideration; and
6. On May 16, 1988 the citizens' advisory committee completed
its public hearings and study concerning amendments to the
Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan and Zoning ordinance,
and submitted them together with their recommendations to

• •
7. The consultant's report, the citizens' committee report, and
related materials were publicly noticed and made available
for public and agency review in compliance with all
requirements of the California Coastal Act and the Coastal
Commission's administrative regulations; and
8. On June 20th, July 5th, and July 14th, July 18, August 15,
and November 21, 1988 the Planning Commission conducted
duly noticed PUBLIC HEARINGS to consider reports and
recommendations from the citizens' committee, consultants
and staff concerning possible amendments and recommended
that the Land Use Plan text and map and the zoning map be
amended to provide for various modifications, and
transmitted such recommendations to the City Council for
consideration; and
9. On July 25, August 22nd, September 9, October 3rd, October
10, October 24th, November 14th, and December 12, 1988, and
January 23rd, and March 27th, 1989 the City Council did

is the lead agency, and no further local documentation is
necessary; and
11. Significant changes have occurred since the original Local
Coastal Program was drawn up and approved over five years
ago. Revisions and changes are warranted by both the
altered physical conditions of Morro Bay and by the
experience gained in application of the Coastal Requirements
as the community has grown and responded to the needs of its
citizens; and
12. Specific planning studies called for in the Local Coastal
Program Land Use plan are now in progress, removing the need
for limitations on development in the area prior to the
preparation of such plans; and
13. Review of previously certified land use and zoning
designations justify the appropriateness of limited
modifications designed to enhance flexibility in planning
for future shoreline access and recreation and use of the
area by the commercial fishing industry.
14. It is necessary to modify the boundaries of the designated
sand dune ESH area to accurately reflect the actual location
and extent of the habitat; and

other portions of the Local Coastal Program, and are
consistent with all elements of the City's adopted General
Plan; and

necessary to conform to and implement the amendments to the
Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan set forth in Resolution
No. 33 -89; and

Program zoning map amendments are in compliance with the
intent, objectives, and policies of the California Coastal
Act and that the City will carry out the Local Coastal
Program, including these amendments in a manner fully
consistent with the California Coastal Act and all its
provisions.
