Building staff reviewed current local code amendments and reviewed the code amendments from the Pima County-City of Tucson Joint Code Committee. Those code amendments determined to be applicable are included in the proposed code amendments draft. The Building Code Advisory Board was able to review the International and Residential Building Code amendments with discussion and proposed changes.
