Latest version.

In addition to the building code requirements set forth in Title 26 of the County Code, the following requirements also apply:

In accordance with Title 26 of the Los Angeles County Code (Building Code) and Title 32 of the Los Angeles County Code (Fire Code), portions of the city are located in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ), as designated by the state of California. Regardless of location within the city, all structures and buildings are subject to the codes required under the VHFHSZ. As such, the county codes stipulate fire-retardant requirements for exterior finish materials, doors, windows, roofs, etc., for all structures and buildings, applying to any repair, addition or new construction. Any repair, addition or new construction to any structure or building in the city is subject to neighborhood compatibility (residential) and precise plan of design (nonresidential) requirements as set forth in Chapters 17.62 and 17.58, respectively, of this code and must conform to all fire-related requirements of this code for new structures and buildings.
