The International Existing Building Code, 2018 edition, as revised, (including all appendix chapters of said code), published by the International Code Council is hereby adopted as the municipal existing building code of the city as a complete, comprehensive code that encourages the use and reuse of existing buildings. This existing building code is fully incorporated by reference as though copied into this article in its entirety. The material contained in the International Existing Building Code, although fully adopted and incorporated by reference in this article, shall not be included in the formal municipal codification of ordinances but shall be maintained as a public record in the office of the city secretary.
(Ordinance 1406-2023 adopted 12/12/2023)
The material contained in exhibit A to Ordinance 1406-2023, although fully adopted and incorporated by reference, shall not be included in the formal municipal codification of ordinances. The material contained in exhibit A shall instead be maintained as a public record in the office of the city secretary. This exhibit will be available for public inspection and copying during regular business hours. The purpose of maintaining these records separate and apart from the municipal codification is to avoid the inclusion of detailed technical construction materials, subject to frequent change, which would unreasonably lengthen the code.
(Ordinance 1406-2023 adopted 12/12/2023)
The city may from time to time determine that additional local modifications to the codes adopted herein are necessary and appropriate to meet the unique building needs of the city. To effectuate modifications, the city council may enact individual ordinances amending this division fully setting forth the change to be made in the specific code. Such subsequent amendments shall be consolidated as an exhibit to Ordinance 1405-2023 and shall be maintained as a public record in the office of the city secretary.
(Ordinance 1406-2023 adopted 12/12/2023)
Any person, firm or corporation who violates, disobeys, omits, neglects or refuses to comply with or who resists the enforcement of any of the provisions of this division shall be fined as provided in section 1.01.009 of this code. Each day that a violation is permitted to exist shall constitute a separate offense.
