Village adopts construction code ordinance aligning with default building codes
Summary
The Village adopted a proposed construction code ordinance selecting the most common building codes to match default requirements; trustees voted unanimously to approve the ordinance as presented.
Attorney Laegeler explained municipalities may opt to be "non-code" and follow default codes or to be "code" and select their own codes; he presented a proposed ordinance that accepts the most common building codes to match the default framework. Trustee Jones moved to approve the proposed construction code ordinance; Trustee Drummond seconded and the vote was unanimous.
The ordinance as adopted selects commonly used building codes to align with defaults; the board did not make additional amendments during this meeting. The action brings the Village into compliance with updated municipal code-selection requirements noted by the attorney.
