The State Building Codes, local amendments thereto and the administrative rules of the codes must be adopted by ordinance to be enforceable within the Tukwila jurisdiction. Shall the council approve an ordinance to adopt the 2009 State Building Code with local amendments? BACKGROUND Jim Haggerton, Mayor The State Building Code Council has adopted the model codes published by the International Code Council, Inc., the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials, and the National Fire Protection Association. The following are the seven model codes that are included in the State Building Code and are administered by Building Division: International Building Code. International Residential Code. International Mechanical Code. International Property Maintenance Code. Uniform Plumbing Code Washington State Energy Code Washington Cities Electrical Code There is a national code change process of the model codes that takes place during a three year cycle. Once this process is completed and the new code editions are published, the State Building Code Council commences their State wide process of public hearings. Subsequent to this process the State Building Code Council publishes their adopted rules and amendments to the model codes. The lengthy process leaves the state wide effective date one year later than the code edition. Due to the many changes that have occurred in the model codes, the State Building Code Council was further delayed in publishing their amendments to the State Building Code. This affected the time frame for presenting an adopting ordinance to the City council and therefore the effective date in Tukwila is now extended beyond the State effective date of July 1, 2010. 125 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 DISCUSSION The International Building Code and the International Residential Building Codes were subject to more changes than in the previous two code cycles. Changes of note are the provisions for high rise buildings, a new occupancy class of ambulatory health care facilities, and a most controversial requirement for mandatory fire sprinkler systems in all new one and two family dwellings and townhouses. The State Building Code Council placed the requirement for residential fire sprinklers in an appendix to the International Residential Code. By this action each jurisdiction will determine if mandatory residential fire sprinkler systems are appropriate for their jurisdictions. Implementation of this requirement will require specific adoption of this appendix. Further study is warranted and therefore adoption of this requirement is not included in this ordinance. The adopting ordinance proposes two local amendments to the State Building Code. 1. An amendment to the permit fee schedule. Damage from flooding or other natural disasters creates the problem of getting damage repair under way as soon as possible. This is imperative for any recovery process to be successful. However, the work must be done under proper building permits and with the required inspections. As part of our recovery planning we have established an over the counter repair permit for one and two family dwellings. A nominal fee of $20.00 is proposed. In this manner the permit is made valid by payment of a permit fee, and the state mandated $4.50 (per building permit) is included in this collection. 2. The amended language and additions to IBC Section 105.2 (Work exempt from permits) includes three items: The first clarifies when work in Tukwila and State right -of- ways will require building permits, see draft ordinance Section 16.04.20, 1, c, (I). The second clarifies the definition of an accessory structure and supplements the conditions of this definition, see draft ordinance Section 16.04.20, 1,c, (II), and the third exempts decks that are not greater than 30 inches above grade plane. The third is actually an addition to the list of construction exempt from a building permit The language to adopt the 2009 Edition of the model codes and the two amendments described herein are the summary of changes to TMC Chapter 16.04. Due to an emergency order requested by the Governor, the new State Energy Code will not be adopted herein. Implementation of the new energy code has been postponed immediately until October 29, 2010 and perhaps an additional postponement until 2011. The current 2006 edition of the energy code will continue to be enforced until such time as the State Building Code Council decides on an implementation date for the new energy code. The strike outs in the fee schedules are updates to the schedules that show increases that were previously approved by council. RECOMMENDATION The Committee is being asked to approve the adopting ordinance with local amendments and forward it to the July 12, 2010 Committee of the Whole meeting for consideration and subsequent July 19, 2010 regular meeting.

II. BUSINESS AGENDA A. Amendment to Doak Homes. Inc. Settlement Aereement Staff is seeking Council approval to authorize the Mayor to amend the terms of an existing settlement agreement with Doak Homes, Inc. In May 2008, the City Council approved a settlement with Doak Homes regarding the development of certain residential properties in the City. Shortly after the settlement was reached, the housing market began to deteriorate. In response to the housing economy, Doak has requested a 36 -month extension of the agreement which, most significantly, allows Doak to build homes on smaller lots. Currently, Doak is one of the few builders actively building in Tukwila, and the four homes they have built to date are appealing and complement the neighborhood. Therefore, staff recommends extending the settlement agreement with the following two changes: 1) Permit fees will not be waived, as per the original settlement; and 2) The Permit process will not be expedited, as per the original settlement. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JULY 12 COW FOR DISCUSSION. B. Ordinance: 2009 State Buildine Code Staff is seeking Council approval of a draft ordinance adopting the 2009 State Building Code with local amendments. The City will need to adopt the 2009 State Building Code in order to comply with the requirement that minimum performance standards and objectives in the City of Tukwila not be less than those contained in the State Building Code. Changes to the State Building Code are made in three year cycles, with the last update being in 2006. The 2009 process seemed to be especially arduous, and the State was late in forwarding the completed amendments, which are usually adopted by local jurisdictions by July 1. In addition to administrative changes, the proposed draft ordinance includes two local amendments relative to Tukwila: Permit fee schedule and process related to damage from flooding and /or natural disasters; and Language that clarifies and further defines work exempt/not exempt from permits. There are two additional items that will not be adopted at this time. Due to the complexity of these issues, the items will be worked on jointly by Fire and Community Development Departments and will come to the Finance Safety Committee under separate cover once completed. Those items are: 1) Mandatory fire sprinkler systems; and 2) Provisions for high -rise buildings; and 3) Provisions for five -story (usually four -story maximum), Type VA construction buildings 135 c 136 Community Affairs Parks Committee Minutes June 28. 2010 Paae 2 Finally, the new State Energy Code has been delayed at the request of the Governor.
