A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
APPROVING VARIANCE TO SECTION 3704-CDUBLIN BUILDING CODE
TO PERMIT AN EXISTING BRICK FIREPLACE AND CHIMNEY
TO REMAIN AT 7884 TAMARACK DRIVE, DUBLIN
WHEREAS, Timothy M. Hyden requested a variance to Section 3704-C
of the building code so as to permit a fireplace and chimney to remain
in the dwelling at 7884 Tamarack Drive, Dublin without horizontal
reinforcing and ties at the ceiling line; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Dublin did hold a public
hearing on this matter on August 24th, 1992;
WHEREAS, the City Council does find that granting of the variance
is consistent with the intent of the code and will not lessen the
protection to the people or property within the City because the
adding of ties to the framing above the ceiling will substantially
improve the ability to resist earthquake motion.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby
approve said variance subject to the following conditions:
Inspection and approval of the foundation by the Building
Official.
The chimney shall be anchored to the framing as required by
Section 3704(c).
PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED this 24th day of August 1992.
