summary
Summary:
The fuel station canopy located at the Public Works Yard, 2175 28th Street, was originally constructed in 1982; the canopy had reached its maximum useful life and needed replacement. Fuel dispensing stations are required to have a canopy in accordance with California Fire Code 406.7.2 and for general compliance with the State Water Resource Control regulations for purposes of accidental discharge of fuel and automotive fluids into the stormwater runoff.
