Code Enforcement
A building code is a set of rules that specify the standards for constructed objects such as buildings and non-building structures. Buildings must meet code requirements in order to qualify for permits or be deemed safe to habitat. The purpose of building codes is to protect public health, safety and general welfare as they relate to the construction and occupancy of buildings and structures.
