SECTION IV - ZONING INFORMATION REPORT PREPARATION (SBMC 28.87.220)

The templates for the Zoning Information Report (ZIR) will be modified to include two check boxes.  The first will indicate that there is a sewer lateral inspection report on file.  The second will indicate that there is no report on file.

The report will also include an advisory statement informing the purchaser that it is the property owner’s responsibility to maintain the lateral in good condition, and informing the owner that the City has an active inspection program to identify laterals in poor condition.

The ZIR will also contain an advisory statement encouraging the property owner to have the lateral inspected prior to close of escrow.

There will be a line for the buyer to sign acknowledging the advisories regarding the sewer lateral.

Exhibit E is a sample of a revised ZIR report.
