APPROVED BY: ddj
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Approve Ordinance 2015- Repealing Section 9-1-
1.0 State Building Code for Special Fire Protection Systems
ISSUE
Our City ordinance relating to Fire Protection Systems is obsolete due to the recent changes enacted at the
State relating to sprinkler systems. Removal of this section, Section 9-1-1C, brings the City into compliance
with the State rules and regulations governing fire sprinkler systems. The section deals with commercial
and industrial properties and installation of automatic sprinkler systems.
RECOMMENDATION
Motion to approve the ordinance.
9-1-1: STATE BUILDING CODE ADOPTED:
A. Building Code: The Minnesota state building code, in its most current edition, established pursuant to
Minnesota statutes, 16B.59 to 16B.75, is hereby adopted as the building code for the city. The code is
hereby incorporated as completely as if fully set out herein. A copy of the state building code shall be
kept available for public use in the office of the city building official. (Ord. XVIII.10, 9-2-1997)
B. Optional Appendixes: As authorized by Minnesota rule part 1300.000, the following appendix chapters of
the international building code are hereby adopted without change and incorporated as part of the
building code for the city:
1. Appendix chapter J, excavation and grading.
(Ord. XVIII.13, 6-15-2004)
C. Special Fire Protection Systems: As authorized by Minnesota rule part 1306.0100 subpart 2, the sprinkler
system requirements of Minnesota rule part 1306.0100 subpart 3, with the selection of option item "8a",
are hereby adopted without change and incorporated as part of the building code for the city.
In the case of commercial or industrial properties, the council may, upon application by the owner, allow
occupancy without completed automatic sprinkler systems subject to all of the following conditions:
1. The municipal water supply system is not currently available, but the council has determined that it is
expected to be made available within one year of the date of building occupancy.
2. A building sprinkler system shall be constructed prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy which is
prepared for connection to the municipal water supply system and the owner has executed an agreement
in a form satisfactory to the city council that the building's sprinkler system will promptly be connected
to the municipal water supply system upon availability.
3. The owner has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the building official that an on site water supply
system for the building's sprinkler system is feasible, and the owner executes an agreement in a form
satisfactory to the city council that if the municipalwater supply system is not made available within one
year of occupancy, the on site water supply system will be constructed and connected to the building's
sprinkler system. Construction of an on site water supply system may be waived by the city council if it
determines that availability of the municipal water supply system is imminent and that construction of the
on site water system would be unreasonable given the needs of the public, the expense of the system and
the expected date of completion of the municipal water supply system.
4. The property owner agrees to hold the city harmless from any actions that relate to fire protection at
its facility prior to connection to the municipal water supply system or an approved on site water supply
system.
5. The property owner executes a petition for the municipal water supply system and a waiver of
assessment appeal for costs associated with the system.
6. The building and site plans associated with the proposed new building, building addition, or occupancy
reclassification change have been approved by the city and the council has determined that delay in
connecting the sprinkler system does not pose an unreasonable hazard.
7. Occupancy prior to connection of the building sprinkler system to a water supply system will not be
permitted in M occupancies as defined in the uniform building code. (Ord. XVIII. 11, 9-7-1999)
