The State of Michigan Bureau of Construction Codes is currently being reorganized. Two new divisions — Licensing/Complaints and Administrative Services — have been created as part of the Bureau reorganization.  This has complicated our Advocacy Project 14-1 but some of the results have been seeking in that project — launched as our top priority in 2014 — are emerging from the State Budget Office of Regulatory Reinvention.

Four State of Michigan Building Code Divisions were scheduled to meet in July but only two will; most likely because of the reorganization.   We summarize July activity below:

July 6th | Construction Code Commission (Meeting Cancelled).   A selection of issues on its docket:

SB 577 – Amend Public Act 230 to exempt fire alarm shop drawings from the requirement of professional services.

HB 5121 – Amend Public Act 230 to require placards on light frame construction buildings other than one and two family dwellings

HB 5123 – Amend Public Act 230 to require Arc fault interrupters in all branch circuits in the one and two family residences.

July 10th | Plumbing Board (Meeting Cancelled).  A selection of issues remaining on its docket:

Deletion of practical copper portion for the journey plumber examination.

HB 5714 – Separation of the master plumber and plumbing contractor renewal fees.

The 2015 Michigan Plumbing Code is expected to be adopted February 2017

July 15th | Barrier Free Design Board.   A selection of issues on its docket:

The last meeting was July 17, 2015 (click here)
