and which is consistent with local, state, and federal law, to
provide for seismic retrofits as follows:
(a) For unreinforced masonry buildings, to meet the requirements
of Appendix Chapter A1 of the current California Existing Building
Code (Part 10 of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations).
(b) For any buildings that qualify as "historical property" under
Section 37602, to meet the requirements of the State Historical
Building Code (Part 2.7 (commencing with Section 18950) of Division
13) and the current California Historical Building Code (Part 8 of
Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations).
(c) For buildings other than unreinforced masonry buildings and
historical properties, to meet the requirements of Appendix A:
Guidelines for the Seismic Retrofit of Existing Buildings of the
International Existing Building Code unless superseding building
standards for existing buildings are adopted in the California
Building Code (Part 2 of Title 24 of the California Code of
Regulations).
If an agency undertakes seismic retrofits and proposes to add new
territory to the project area, to increase either the limitation on
the number of dollars to be allocated to the redevelopment agency or
the time limit on the establishing of loans, advances, and
indebtedness established pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of
Section 33333.2, to lengthen the period during which the
redevelopment plan is effective, to merge project areas, or to add
significant additional capital improvement projects, as determined by
the agency, the agency shall amend its redevelopment plan and follow
the same procedure, and the legislative body is subject to the same
restrictions, as provided for in Article 4 (commencing with Section
33330) for the adoption of a plan.
