i.�
"Solar energy system" has the same meaning set forth in paragraphs
(1) and (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 801.5 of the Civil Code, as
such section or subdivision may be amended, renumbered, or redesignated

Section 24.111. Small Residential Rooftop Solar Energy System
Review Process.
(a) Section 65850.5 of the California Government Code
provides that, on or before September 30, 2015, every city, county, or
city and county shall adopt an ordinance that creates an expedited,
streamlined permitting process for small residential rooftop solar
energy systems.
(b) Section 65850.5 of the California Government Code
provides that in developing an expedited permitting process, the city,
county, or city and county shall adopt a checklist of all requirements
with which small rooftop solar energy systems shall comply to be
eligible for expedited review. The Director of Public Works, Water and
Development Services Department, or his/her designee, is hereby
authorized and directed to develop and adopt such checklist.
(c) The checklist shall be published on the City's internet
website. The applicant may submit the permit application and
associated documentation to the City's Public Works, Water and
Development Services Department by personal, mail, or electronic
submittal together with any required permit processing and inspection
fees. In the case of an electronic submittal, the electronic signature
of the applicant on all forms, applications and other documentation may
be used in lieu of a wet signature.
(d) Prior to submitting an application, the applicant shall:
- 3 -
1. Verify to the applicant's reasonable satisfaction
through the use of standard engineering evaluation techniques that the
support structure for the small residential rooftop solar energy system
is stable and adequate to transfer all wind, seismic, and dead and live
loads associated with the system to the building foundation; and
2. At the applicant's cost, verify to the applicant's
reasonable satisfaction using standard electrical inspection techniques
that the existing electrical system including existing line, load,
ground and bonding wiring as well as main panel and subpanel sizes are
adequately sized, based on the existing electrical system's current
use, to carry all new photovoltaic electrical loads.
(e) For a small residential rooftop solar energy system
eligible for expedited review, only one inspection shall be required,
which shall be done in a timely manner and may include a consolidated
inspection by the Director of Public Works, Water and Development
Services Department, or his/her designee, and the Fire Chief, or
his/her designee. If a small residential rooftop solar energy system
fails inspection, a subsequent inspection is authorized; however the
subsequent inspection need not conform to the requirements of this
subsection.
(f) An application that satisfies the information
requirements in the checklist, as determined by the Director of Public
Works, Water and Development Services Department, or his/her designee,
shall be deemed complete. Upon receipt of an incomplete application,
the Director of Public Works, Water and Development Services
Department, or his/her designee, shall issue a written correction
notice detailing all deficiencies in the application and any additional
information required to be eligible for expedited permit issuance.
- 4 -
(g) Upon confirmation by the Director of Public Works, Water
and Development Services Department, or his/her designee, of the
application and supporting documentation being complete and meeting the
requirements of the checklist, the Director of Public Works, Water and
Development Services Department, or his/her designee, shall
administratively approve the application and issue all required permits
or authorizations. Such approval does not authorize an applicant to
connect the small residential rooftop energy system to the local
utility provider's electricity grid. The applicant is responsible for
obtaining such approval or permission from the Vernon Gas and Electric
Department.
SECTION 3: Repeal. Any ordinance or parts of an ordinance
in conflict with this Ordinance are hereby repealed.
SECTION 4: Severability. If any chapter, article, section,
subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase, or word
in this Ordinance or any part thereof is for any reason held to be
unconstitutional or invalid or ineffective by any court of competent
jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or
effectiveness of the remaining portions of this Ordinance or any part
thereof. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted
this Ordinance and each chapter, article, section, subsection,
subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase thereof,
irrespective of the fact that any one or more chapters, articles,
sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses,
phrases or words be declared unconstitutional, or invalid, or
ineffective.
SECTION 5: Book of Ordinances. The City Clerk, or
Deputy City Clerk, shall attest and certify to the adoption of this
- 5 -
Ordinance and shall cause this Ordinance and the City Clerk's, or
Deputy City Clerk's, certification to be entered in the Book of
Ordinances of the Council of this City. The City Clerk, or Deputy City

DEPARTMENT
DATE: June 2, 2015
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Samuel Kevin Wilson l irector of Public Works, Water and Development
Services Department
RE: Adoption of an Ordinance Related to an Expedited Permitting Procedure for
Small Residential Rooftop Solar Systems
Recommendation
A. Find that the adoption of an ordinance related to an expedited permitting procedure for
small residential rooftop solar systems is exempt under the California Environmental
Quality Act ("CEQA") in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that
CEQA only applies to projects that may have a significant effect on the environment; and
B. Adopt an Ordinance establishing an expedited permitting procedure for small residential
rooftop solar systems.
Back round
Section 65850.5(a) of the California Government Code provides that it is the policy of the State
of California to promote and encourage the installation and use of solar energy systems by
limiting obstacles to their use and by minimizing the permitting costs of such systems. In
furtherance of that objective, Section 65850.5(g)(1) of the California Government Code requires
that, on or before September 30, 2015, every city and county must adopt an ordinance that
creates an expedited, streamlined permitting process for small residential rooftop solar energy
systems.
Given the limited stock of housing the City has yet to process an application for a residential
rooftop solar system. The City, however, needs to adopt the ordinance mandated by Section
65850.5(g)(1). The attached ordinance is intended to satisfy that requirement. The ordinance
codifies the requirements of Section 65850.5(g)(1), such as accepting and approving applications
electronically, directing the City's Building Official to develop a checklist of all requirements
Page 1 of 2
with which small rooftop solar energy systems shall comply to be eligible for expedited review,
and authorizing the Building Official to administratively approve such applications.
Fiscal Impact
State law currently sets a mandated fee that can be charged for solar installations. These fees
have previously been incorporated into the City's fee schedule. Staff anticipates that the City
will receive very few applications for rooftop solar systems. Therefore, the financial impact to
the City for this expedited process is anticipated to be very nominal.
