Agenda Title: |

An Ordinance to Amend Chapter 15.04 of the Rapid City Municipal Code Concerning Administrative Provisions for Buildings and Construction. |
|||
|
Summary: |
|||
|
On January 7, 2013 the City Council approved thirteen separate ordinances regarding the Building Code regulations. One of the ordinances titled Chapter 15.04 Administration consolidated the administrative requirements for all building code chapters into a single chapter. Due to concerns expressed by residential and commercial contractors the Mayor appointed a committee to draft revisions to the code. The revised ordinance has also been reviewed and revised by the City Building Board of Appeals. At the January 7th meeting City Council requested some revisions to Section 15.04.110 regarding the Building Board of Appeals including: A clarification that a license holder in the electrical, mechanical, and plumbing trades would be eligible for appointment to the Building Board of Appeals; the 22 days for appeal to the Board would be calendar days; and the decisions of the Board would be final with the exception that an appeal concerning a determination on a license could be appealed to City Council. |
