WHEREAS, many of the City's residents affected by the Marshall Fire have <br />learned they may be significantly underinsured and will thus face financial hardships <br />rebuilding their fire -damaged homes; and <br />WHEREAS, the 2021 IECC includes energy conservation measures that increase <br />the cost of construction over the 2018 IECC and, although grant funding, rebates and <br />other resources have been identified to defray these costs, residents remain concerned <br />that the financial burden and potential delay that could result by complying with the 2021 <br />IECC will affect their ability to rebuild their homes; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council finds that repairing and rebuilding of homes lost to <br />the Marshall Fire is essential to maintaining the fabric of the community, and that allowing <br />those who face financial hardship to repair and rebuild in accordance with the 2018 IECC <br />will still result in homes that are significantly more energy efficient than the homes that <br />were destroyed; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council further finds its adoption of the 2021 IECC was in <br />furtherance of its important policy objectives contained in the City's Sustainability Action <br />Plan, and therefore the 2021 IECC should be implemented to the greatest extent possible; <br />and <br />WHEREAS, the determination that a resident may rebuild or repair a residence <br />damaged or destroyed by the Marshall Fire using the 2018 IECC may only be made based <br />upon satisfaction of those criteria set forth herein, to ensure the sustainability measures <br />in the 2021 IECC are relaxed only to the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate the <br />rebuilding of fire -damaged homes within the community; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council finds that restoring a vibrant and robust community <br />requires rebuilding to occur within a reasonable amount of time, and that the relief set <br />forth herein afforded those who lost their homes in the Marshall Fire who are experiencing <br />financial hardship is rationally related to the important government function of fostering <br />and maintaining such a vibrant and robust community; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council finds those persons who lost their homes in the <br />Marshall Fire have experienced and been impacted by a natural disaster of epic <br />proportions, and thus are differently situated from those within the City who choose to <br />repair or remodel an existing residence, build a new residence, or make repairs or <br />replacements that occur in the normal course of owning a residence; and <br />WHEREAS, by this ordinance, the City Council furthers its established policy of <br />facilitating rebuilding of structures damaged or destroyed by the Marshall Fire as set forth in <br />previous actions of the City Council; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes those residents whose homes were <br />damaged or destroyed by the Marshall Fire have suffered great losses and it is the policy of <br />Ordinance No. 1868 Series 2023 <br />Page 2 of 6 <br />
