Body

 

SUMMARY STATEMENT:

Every three years the International Code Council publishes a new set of construction codes.  The most recent are the 2015 editions.  It is important to adopt the most current codes to maintain a good Insurance Services Office rating.  This adoption is being done concurrently with a number of jurisdictions around the valley including the Cities of Phoenix and Scottsdale.  The building community has participated in discussions about the adoption at the regular quarterly Building Community meetings.

 

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

None
