Restoration in Santa Clara
Santa Clara's FY 2023/24 Municipal Fee Schedule, adopted April 18, 2023, lists $230.14 per water heater, vent included, and $309.00 for a new tankless unit. They're three fiscal years old. A like-for-like replacement also picks up building-division fees on top, so ask the city for the current total before a company quotes it. A, AE, AH and AO, four FEMA flood zones, meet Santa Clara's boundary. All are Special Flood Hazard Areas, though any one may reach only a corner of the city.
No CAL FIRE hazard class touches it. Santa Clara Water & Sewer Utilities pumps groundwater from city wells and buys more from Valley Water and San Francisco's utilities commission, and the city's housing has a 1974 median. Testing for asbestos before a big tear-out has its own rule. Anyone sampling or surveying for an abatement of 100 square feet or more works as an asbestos consultant or site surveillance technician, and 8 CCR 341.15 requires certification from Cal/OSHA for that work.
