Committee notes concerns about representation in SBCC bill 5429 but takes no position
Summary
Committee members noted industry overrepresentation concerns in SBCC bill 5429 (no substantive changes reported) and said the committee could deliberate on any formal position when the full council meets; no motion was taken at this meeting.
The legislative committee discussed bill 5429, a State Building Code Council‑related bill, on Feb. 20, 2025. Dustin, the staff presenter, said there were no substantive changes in the current draft but noted feedback had raised concerns that the construction industry is overrepresented relative to other interests in the council’s composition.
Dustin said the committee had not had an opportunity to deliberate as a full council and that, because quorum limitations prevented formal action at this meeting, the committee could not adopt an official position. Jay Arnold noted that the bill had not been scheduled in the upcoming Senate Local Government Committee and may not move forward this session.
Committee members suggested the bill had not resolved concerns raised by various stakeholders and that further deliberation outside the legislative session could be useful to explore alternative fixes. No formal motion or vote occurred; staff will monitor committee scheduling and future hearing opportunities.
