For building departments, enforcing the state minimum building codes not only protects citizens from potentially tragic events such as fire and structural collapse, it also protects properties against devaluation due to shoddy workmanship.
But protecting your community comes with risk. Are your code compliance efforts up to the challenge?
| Ask yourself… | If the answer is no, you risk… |
|
Are your people trained, certified and qualified? |
Liability for faulty construction and/or dealing with new subdivisions that look like blighted areas due to poor workmanship |
|
Are the codes enforced consistently from one project to another? |
Pressure from builders and developers for consistent and timely code interpretations |
|
Is your staff adequate for the number and types of projects that are coming? |
Periods where your department staff is stretched thin from high volume or is overstaffed during construction lulls |
|
Could your department withstand the loss of key personnel? |
Department turnover that could result in lost opportunities and/or ineffective building code enforcement during crucial times |
|
Are your building department expenses in line? |
Your expenses may exceed your revenues |
