New code books, existing local amendments and typed comments on the codes were provided to <br />the Building Codes Appeals Board. The codes were subsequently reviewed and discussed by the Board. <br /> <br />At their August 17,2010 meeting, the Board voted to recommend adoption of the 2009 Code Editions with local <br />amendments as noted in the report. Attached is the Board recommendation memo and typed comments. <br /> <br />On September 27, 2010 Council held a workshop on the Board recommendation and code amendments. At that <br />meeting, staff was directed to move forward with a code adoption ordinance. <br /> <br />At their October II, 2010 meeting, Council denied the proposed ordinance that would have adopted the 2009 <br />International Code editions. Staff was then directed to return with an ordinance that includes adoption of the <br />Uniform Plumbing and Mechanical Codes. <br /> <br />Since staff did not have copies of the Uniform Plumbing or Mechanical Code books, no review has been done by <br />staff or by the Building Codes Appeals Board. The new code adoption ordinance has been drafted to adopt the 2009 <br />Edition of the International Codes (Residential, Building and Energy Conservation) with local amendments and <br />adopt the 2009 Edition of the Uniform Codes (Plumbing and Mechanical) with no local amendments. <br /> <br />In accordance with past practices, the ordinance was developed with a delayed implementation period to allow for <br />mail notification to contractors as well as updating of divisional handouts and the website. The ordinance has an <br />effective date of January 1,2011. <br /> <br /> <br />her action on the ordinance adopting the 2009 Code Editions with local amendments <br /> <br />I~ Iv ~D <br /> <br />Date <br />
