The plans you recently submitted have been reviewed by the Fire Department referencing
the Public Resources Code 4290 and 4291, Butte County Improvement Standards and the 2016
edition of the California Fire Code (CFC). The comments listed below in the body of this
letter must be addressed prior to Fire Department FINAL INSPECTION of your project.
1. Driveway Structures: All driveway, road, street, and private lane roadway structures
(Bridges, culverts, and other appurtenant structures which supplement the roadway bed or
shoulders) shall be constructed to carry at least the maximum load and provide the
minimum vertical clearance as required by Vehicle Code Sections 35550, 35750 and
35250. All bridges shall be certified by a registered Civil Engineer. Appropriate signing,
including but not limited to weight or vertical clearance limitations, one-way road or
single lane conditions, shall reflect the capability of each bridge. A bridge with only one
traffic lane may be authorized by the local jurisdiction; however, it shall provide for
unobstructed visibility from one end to the other and turnouts at both ends.
2. Addressing: All buildings shall be issued an address by the local jurisdiction which
conforms to that jurisdiction's overall address system. Accessory buildings will not be
required to have a separate address; however, each dwelling unit within a building shall
be separately identified. Size of letters, numbers and symbols for addresses shall be a
minimum 4 inch letter height, %2 inch stroke, reflectorized, contrasting with the
background color of the sign. All buildings shall have a permanently posted address,
which shall be placed at each driveway entrance and visible from both directions of travel
along the road. In all cases, the address shall be posted at the beginning of construction
and shall be maintained thereafter, and the address shall be visible and legible from the
road on which the address is located. Address signs along one-way roads shall be visible
from both the intended direction of travel and the opposite direction. Where multiple
addresses are required at a single driveway, they shall be mounted on a single post.
3. Disposal of Flammable Vegetation and Fuels: Disposal, including chipping, burning or
removal to a landfill site approved by the local jurisdiction, of flammable vegetation and
fuels caused by site development and construction, road and driveway construction, and
fuel modification shall be completed prior to completion of road construction or final
inspection of a building permit.
The Fire Prevention Bureau is currently open to the public from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. If you wish

other phone numbers will cause a delay in completing your permit.
