Summary
(1) The California Building Standards Law provides for the promulgation of building standards by state agencies by requiring all state agencies that adopt or propose adoption of any building standard to submit the building standard to the California Building Standards Commission for approval or adoption. Existing law requires that the commission receive proposed building standards from state agencies for consideration in an annual code adoption cycle. This bill would modify the code adoption cycle and extend it to 18 months. (2) Existing law requires the commission to publish, or cause to be published, editions of the code in its entirety every 3 years, and, in each intervening year, to publish supplements as necessary. The bill would require the commission to publish the supplements in the intervening period instead of each intervening year.
