Council advances ordinance to repeal SB9 restrictions in Eaton Fire boundary
Summary
On a unanimous vote, the council conducted first reading of an ordinance repealing earlier interim ordinances that prohibited SB9 applications in the high-fire Eaton boundary. The change clears the way for standard review of SB9 lot-split applications in that area.
Pasadena's City Council held a public hearing and conducted the first reading on July 20 of an ordinance to repeal two interim ordinances (No. 7455 and 7457) that had prohibited Senate Bill 9 (SB9) lot-split and two-unit applications within a very-high fire-hazard severity zone in the Eaton Fire boundary. The clerk noted the change from the agenda title: this is a codified ordinance.
The ordinance received unanimous support for first reading. The measure's readers and supporters said the repeal aligns the municipal code with current rules and allows standard processing of SB9 applications in the affected area. No public correspondence was received by the clerk's office on the item and no public speakers addressed that specific ordinance during the hearing. Council will proceed with subsequent readings as required by the municipal code.
