Simonton council adopts updated building codes (Ordinance 2026-06)
Summary
The council adopted Ordinance 2026-06 to update the city's building codes; the minutes record the ordinance reading and a unanimous vote but do not include the ordinance text or technical changes.
Mayor Boudreaux read Ordinance 2026-06 adopting updated building codes for the City of Simonton. Councilmember Eric Duhon moved to approve the ordinance; Councilmember Angela King seconded the motion and the council voted unanimously to adopt the updated codes.
The minutes record the ordinance number and the adoption vote but do not include the specific code changes (model code edition, amendments or effective dates). The council scheduled a public hearing related to building codes for May 19, 2026, which suggests additional public engagement and a formal adoption filing will follow the hearing.
Why it matters: updates to building codes determine construction standards, permitting requirements, and flood-plain compliance that affect builders, property owners and developers in Simonton.
