• Code Reviews to Begin
MCL 125.1504, Sec. 4 of 1972 PA 230, STILLE-DEROSSETT-HALE SINGLE STATE CONSTRUCTION CODE ACT requires the update of the state construction code (building, residential, mechanical, plumbing and electrical codes) not less than once every 3 years to coincide with the national code change cycle. Therefore, the review process will begin in early January, 2012.

The Boiler Rules, State Boundary Commission Rules, Survey and Remonumentation and Elevator Rules will also be reviewed in 2012.

Each code set will be reviewed separately. For applicable code rule review meeting schedules and code change proposal forms, please click on the appropriate Division link to the right.
