Ordinance Revision - 1988 Uniform Building Code - Language Clarification
Staff informed the Board that this language clarification recommendation
came about from the motel project on Broadway. The City Attorney advised
staff that the appeals was not complete because City Council did not hear the
case.
Board Member Reynolds stated that the striking of "The decision of the
Board is final" would make the Board of Appeals not the final body to rule.
The City Council would be the final body ruling. This revision could make for
a political issue and not a technical issue.
Director of Building and Housing Larsen recommended that since this item is
not in the essence of time, staff will seek the City Attorney's opinion and
recommendation and bring forth the information to the Board at the
November meeting.
