Building Code Board of Appeals <br />Minutes <br />5.18.23 <br />Page 8 of 8 <br />Berry commented that the 2021 IECC code was too far ahead of technology the <br />time it was adopted and still is today. <br />Geise and Dino discussed possibly adding a new appendix with changes to the <br />existing 2021 IECC adopted code. <br />Berry outlined the points the board should make to the City Manager: <br />• The BCBOA board has been effective at providing council to the building <br />department. <br />• The BCBOA board has been ineffective at providing guidance to City <br />Council because City Council has not taken the board's advice for <br />previous code adoptions. <br />• The BCBOA advisory services are not being utilized when the board is not <br />given the opportunity to comment on adopted codes, such as the 2021 <br />IECC Residential code. <br />• If City Council is considering legislation regarding building codes, they <br />must consider advice from a technical board. <br />• There should be transparency when City Council disregards a technical <br />board's advice. <br />• Consideration of changing the BCBOA bylaws to change the board to <br />more of an advisory board, which would require City Council adoption. <br />Berry also reminded the board that regarding open government law, they cannot <br />discuss as a group but only as individuals. <br />Discussion Items for Next Meeting <br />Agenda items for next meeting: <br />1. Create a work plan for the board. <br />2. Discuss feedback from City Council on the results of this meeting. <br />Next meeting on June 15, 2023. <br />Adjourn — The meeting was adjourned at 7:59pm <br />10 <br />
