STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS13192C1
This legislation makes clear that the State Division of Building
Safety has the building code enforcement responsibility (plan
review, permitting and inspection) for all building facilities
constructed or used by state agencies including those owned,
constructed or financed by the Idaho State Building Authority. It
also provides that the Division of Building Safety and the Fire
Marshal will work with affected local government agencies and
will take into consideration their comments and ordinances and
will notify them of actions taken and provide them with final
copies of building plans.
FISCAL IMPACT
None. The costs of the Division of Building Safety are a
function of workload. Costs associated with the Idaho State
Building Authority projects are paid by the Authority. The
workload is not expected to change as a result of this
legislation.
