Council votes to update permit forms and City Code to current construction-code year
Summary
Council approved updating permit/application forms and portions of the City Code to reference the current construction-code year and the latest editions of commonly adopted codes (IBC, IRC, NEC, IPC, IPMC, IMC).
The City Council approved a motion to update all permit and application forms and to revise portions of the City Code to reference the current construction-code year and the latest model codes the City adopts.
Councilmember Owen moved to approve updating references to the International Building Code (IBC), International Residential Code (IRC), National Electrical Code (NEC), International Plumbing Code (IPC), International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC), International Mechanical Code (IMC) and any other construction codes the City adopts.

The minutes note the council's action to align forms and code citations with the current code year but do not list an implementation timeline or indicate whether staff will return with detailed ordinance language.
