Summary
Council introduced Ordinance No. 1519 for first reading, adopting the 2025 California Building Code and related codes. Staff described the action as routine triannual housekeeping required statewide; no public comment was received and the council voted to introduce the ordinance by title.
The Baldwin Park City Council on Nov. 5 introduced for first reading Ordinance No. 1519, which adopts the 2025 editions of the California Building Code and related 2025 statewide codes.
Staff described the ordinance as a routine, triannual housekeeping update that the city periodically adopts to remain consistent with state building codes. The building official (Tom Long/Tang referenced in the record) was available in the audience to answer technical questions; none were raised during the meeting. The public hearing produced no speakers in favor or opposition.
The council moved to introduce the ordinance by title and the motion passed by unanimous roll-call vote.
Next steps: The introduction was the first reading; staff indicated the typical process will return the ordinance for second reading/adoption at a later meeting per state and local procedures.
