Council adopts 2025 Ohio Fire Code to align local rules with state requirements
Summary
Council unanimously adopted an ordinance adopting the 2025 Ohio Fire Code with an emergency clause so it takes effect immediately; the ordinance was assigned 07332026.
The Circleville City Council adopted an ordinance to incorporate the 2025 Ohio Fire Code into the city's codified ordinances.
Members said the update brings the city code into alignment with state requirements. A safety committee member explained the paperwork delay and the need for an emergency clause so the city could comply with a state adoption schedule. The council suspended rules and voted to pass the measure; the ordinance was recorded as assigned 07332026.
The action was presented as a routine code update rather than a policy change; council members invited the chief and safety committee members to confirm the change reflected the state standard and to explain the emergency clause's timing.
