<br />Item No: 7K <br />Meeting Date: August 27, 2007 <br />Type of Business: CB <br />Administrator Review: ____ <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: James Ericson, Community <br />Development Director <br />Item Title/Subject: Second Reading and Adoption of <br />Ordinance 795, an Ordinance Amending Chapter 1001 <br />of the Mounds View City Code Relating to the Building <br />Code <br /> <br />Introduction: <br /> <br />Mounds View Building Official Kathi Osmonson has prepared an ordinance to amend <br />Chapter 1001 of the Mounds View City Code, updating the “Building Code” section. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />The proposed changes to Chapter 1001 are simple updates to reflect a state-level <br />organizational transition from the Building Codes and Standards Division to the Department <br />of Labor and Industry, Construction Standards and Licensing Division. <br /> <br />The recommended changes in Section 1001.01 relating to Chapter 1306 reflect the current <br />language of 1306, in that there is no longer an “Option E” outlining sprinkler requirements <br />for R-1 and R-2 dwellings. The pertinent language in Option E was transitioned into the <br />body of the code. <br /> <br />The City Council approved the introduction and first reading of this ordinance on August <br />13, 2007. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Approve the second reading and adoption of Ordinance 795, an Ordinance amending <br />Chapter 1001 of the Mounds View City Code relating to the Building Code. Staff also <br />recommends the Council consent to the publication of a summary of the ordinance as <br />authorized by City Charter section 3.07 <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />________________________ <br />James Ericson <br />Community Development Director <br /> <br /> <br />
