AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF AZUSA ADDING SECTION 15. 04 . 170 TO THE AZUSA
MUNICIPAL CODE REQUIRING STANDARDIZED ACCESS
FOR LOCKED GATE COMMUNITIES
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS :
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Azusa does
hereby find, determine and declare that a standardized emergency
access system for locked-gate communities is essential for preser-
vation of the public health, safety and welfare in that police,
fire and other emergency service personnel need to have quick
access to locked-gate communities in order to promptly respond
to emergencies. In light of the serious threat to life and
property which would occur by delayed access to an emergency in
a locked-gate development, and the relatively minor expense of
installing a standardized access system, the six-month period
for converting existing locked-gate developments to a standardized
emergency access system is entirely fair and reasonable.
SECTION 2. Section 15. 04. 170 is hereby added to the
Azusa Municipal Code to read as follows :
"15. 04 . 170 STANDARDIZED ACCESS FOR LOCKED-GATE
DEVELOPMENTS. A standardized emergency access
system shall be installed and maintained subject
to the approval of the Director of Community
Development for all locked-gate developments.
Locked-gate developments which have received
a certificate of occupancy on or before the
effective date of this section shall have
six months from the effective date of this
section within which to comply with the provi-
sions of this section.
SECTION 3 . The City Clerk shall certify the adoption
of this ordinance, and shall cause the same to be published
as required by law.
PASSED AND APPROVED this 19th day of August , 1985.
