Update fire safety rules to match 2007 California Fire Code
In Plain English
Richmond currently uses older fire safety rules that don't match state standards. The city wants to adopt California's 2007 Fire Code, which sets requirements for things like sprinkler systems, exit signs, and fire lane access. If approved, local businesses and property owners must follow the updated safety standards.
