Harold Howerton, President, Howerton Electric Company, Inc. , presented the following to the Council: Members of the City Council, Jefferson City, Missouri, Gentlemen: 1 �s Our interest as concerned citizens in the matter of building codes and their enforcement is: Ij 1. We find no fault in the City Council establishing the 1971 �! edition of the National Electrical Code (or any later addition) or ii the enabling ordinances under which the office of the electrical inspector is operated. 2. Our concern is that the City Council does now, or ever allow the administration and enforcement of the various building codes tail be taken over by some outside agency. 3. It is our wish at Howerton Electric Company, Inc. , that the j inspection enforcement would be as effective as it is in other {� Missouri cities in that the electrical design would have to be approved before the electrical permit could be issued, and further that the subsequent periodic electrical inspections would be meaningful and in depth. Also, it's advisable that the partial occupancy of a buildin would not be permitted before the electrical system is substantially completed. 4. All electrical construction whether public or private should be subject to same inspection procedure, rules and regulations, as set out in the City ordinances . Sincerely, HOWERTON ELECTRIC COMPANY, INC. /s/ J. H. Howerton, President. Councilman Hager then moved that the Council proceed with the pass- age of the Bills . Motion passed.
