This review will <br />provide the business community and other interested parties with an additional <br />opportunity to provide feedback on the code adoption package. <br />City staff are preparing an adoption package to update the City's building codes from the <br />2018 International Code Series and 2021 International Energy Code, with amendments, <br />to the 2024 International Code Series (I -Codes), with amendments. The following are the <br />code versions being considered: <br />■ 2024 International Building Code <br />■ 2024 International Residential Code <br />■ 2024 International Mechanical Code <br />■ 2024 International Fuel Gas Gode <br />■ 2024 International Plumbing Code <br />■ 2024 International Fire Code <br />■ 2024 International Energy Conservation Code <br />■ 2024 International Property Maintenance Code <br />■ 2024 International Existing Building Code <br />■ 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code <br />■ 1997 Uniform Housing Code (adds to the City's authority if needed to abate <br />dangerous buildings). <br />The City would adopt each of these codes by reference and specify any desired <br />amendments to these codes within the Municipal Code, Title 15, Building and <br />Construction. Staff have worked with the Building Code Board of Appeals (BCBOA), <br />which serves as the designated advisory board to City Council on building code <br />adoptions, to developed initial drafts that outline potential amendments: <br />■ Attachment No. 1: Draft ordinance adopting all codes except the International <br />Energy Conservation Code, with amendments. <br />■ Attachment No. 2: Draft ordinance adopting the International Energy Conservation <br />Code, with amendments. <br />Agenda Packet P. 7 <br />
