<br />RESOLUTIONS
<br />RESOLUTION NO. 359 -73
<br />A RESOLUTION FAVORING ADOPTION OF THE BOCA
<br />BASIC BUILDING CODE AS THE STATE -WIDE STANDARD
<br />BUILDING CODE, AS AMENDED.
<br />WHEREAS, the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, at its 1969 Session, enacted
<br />the Administrative Building Council Act of 1969, being Chapter 338 of the Acts of 1969
<br />(Burns Sec. 20 -435 thru 20 -469); and
<br />WHEREAS, Section 32 of said Act provides that the Administrative Building Council
<br />created by said Act shall formulate a standard state -wide building code to become
<br />effective March 15, 1971, which, on said date shall have the effect of supplanting
<br />and replacing all existing building codes throughout the state; and
<br />WHEREAS, the Common Council has been informed that the Administrative Building
<br />Council, in special session on February 6, 1973, acted to abandon its own up -dated
<br />version of the present Rules and Regulations and issued instructions to the depart-
<br />ment staff to prepare the necessary drafts of amendments required to adopt a model
<br />code package; and
<br />WHEREAS, the Municipal City of South Bend and the Board of Commissioners of
<br />St. Joseph County have both adopted and been operating under the BOCA Basic Building
<br />Code, as amended, promulgated by the Building Officials and Code Administrators
<br />International since 1961; and
<br />WHEREAS, the Common Council is of the opinion that the BOCA Code has proven to
<br />be very satisfactory in operation, that it is more relevant to the State of Indiana,
<br />and the Midwest, than the other standard codes in use in other areas of the country,
<br />and that a switch to a different code at this time would produce much confusion and
<br />difficulty.
<br />NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of South Bend,
<br />Indiana, that:
<br />SECTION I. The Council strongly favors adoption of the BOCA Basic Building Code,
<br />as amended, by the Indiana Administrative Building Council as the standard state -wide
<br />building code.
<br />SECTION II. That a copy of this Resolution be forwarded by the Clerk to the
<br />Indiana Administrative Building Council members, the State Building Commissioner,
<br />and to the Governor of the State of Indiana.
<br />s/ Peter J. Nemeth
<br />Member of the Common Council
<br />A public hearing was held on the resolution at this time. Council President Nemeth briefly
<br />explained that the resolution simply favored adoption of the state -wide standard building code, as
<br />amended. Councilman Parent made a motion that the resolution be adopted, seconded by Councilman
<br />Kopczynski. The resolution passed by a roll call vote of nine ayes (Councilmen Serge, Szymkowiak,ll
<br />Miller, Parent, Taylor, Kopczynski, Horvath, Newburn and Nemeth).
