WHEREAS , currently at the Federal. :and State of Calif-
ornia governmental levels , there is movement under way, proposing
that Federal and State governments pre-empt the field of building
codes, their preparation, use and enforcement policies, . and
WHEREAS.,- to: allow such proposing to become an act-
uality, would be discarding as worthless , the. experience in this
field, gained through some forty years of codes, their uses and appli-
cation, and.
WHEREAS', it has hot been demonstrated that a set of
codes prepared at the Federal. er even the State level would accom-
plish anything except to centralize the responsibility for creating
chaos, and
WHEREAS; the Organizations that have been in the codes
production and use field for some forty years , have instituted pro-
ceedings. to eliminate codes differences through joint, action, which
proceedings should receive the active support of. Federal and State
governmental agencies ; and

ist the need for more uniformity, in codes; their use and application
on an interchangeable basisbetween legal j'urisdic:tions , and

climatic and construction practice differences do exist , and must be
taken into consideration. in ,codes , and
WHEREAS, there has been estabitished .in Sonoma County
the Codes Advisory Board, whose purpose is to work for uniformity in
codes adoption, use and determination made under said codes,, and
WHEREAS:,, the operation of the Codes Advisory Board for
some two years has demonstrated that the principles under which the
Board operates are valid and can be made to, work if, properly supported
by all governmental ag'enc'ies including 'Federal and State.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of
the City of Petaluma that the preparation of building and allied code
regulations ; would best be left in the hands of those organizations
that have shown through long experience that they are fully aware of
the need for. ,uniformity in codes, and are taking steps to establish
Wile/ and that such codes are in effect performance, codes';, whereby
;new' methods and matetials can, if properly authenticated,,_ be included
as parts or alternatives to existing codes , and

IT; IS FURTHER, RESOLVED, the enfor,cenent of -codes
regulations is much better applied by the local building departments
that have been in existehce for long periods of time, than by- attempt-
. ing to establish new Federal or State agencies,, with corresponding
'remoteness of responsibility or action ,. and
IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED, that all City Councils , Board
of Supervisors , Building Departments , Archi'tects', Engineers , Con-
tractor Associations, Material Dealers , Trade Union Organizations ,
