No old business.
5. Start review of Chapter One of the building, residential, and existing building codes.
These chapters had considerable discussion. City staff had discussed this chapter with the
Residential code committee about concerns of what work should be exempt and inspections.
This chapter is standard in all the ICC code books with minor (but important) variations peculiar
to the particular code book. Various sections were discussed and it was decided to postpone
further detailed discussions until the sub-committees were further underway. The
recommendations for this chapter directly affect how the building code will be administered.
6. Public Comments
No public comments were made.
7. New Business
This section was brought up by Randy Allen to review contractor licensing for the city. Possibly
to see if General Contractors can be licensed with more requirements to ensure a better caliber
of work performed in the City.
8. Next Meeting Date
The next meeting date will be June 23, 2016. There will not be a May meeting.
9. Adjourn
The meeting adjourned at 11:37 a.m.
