Full Breakdown
Manteca Municipal Code § 15.22.010 adopts the 2025 California Green Building Standards Code, California Code of Regulations Title 24 Part 11, as the city's green code governing sustainable building practices city-wide. Sections 15.22.020 and 15.22.030 amend CALGreen Sections 4.106.2 and 5.106.1 so that new construction and additions can satisfy the stormwater-pollution-prevention measure by complying with Manteca Municipal Code Chapter 13.28, Storm Water Management and Discharges, as enforced by the public works director, rather than a generic state standard.
Violations & Fines
Projects that skip required CALGreen measures, including the stormwater-prevention compliance path tied to Chapter 13.28, face the same permit, correction, and misdemeanor penalties as other adopted building codes.
