Building and Code Staff Appreciation Day

No one wants to live, work, or even step inside a building that is not safe. Whether it wasn’t checked carefully during the building process so the walls could fall down during a heavy wind storm, or if the sprinkler system is not up to code when a fire breaks out, it’s just not a great idea to be in a building that doesn’t pass inspection.
Building regulations and codes have been around in some form or another for at least a couple hundred years. Code staff are needed to enforce safety practices and regulation for various aspects of construction and maintenance, including inspectors for building, electrical, housing, fire prevention, public works, mechanical, plumbing and others. Code officers are also critical in making sure that a variety of buildings in the commercial, residential, public assemblies areas and others are kept up to code and safe.
So, although it may feel like the staff and inspectors who manage a city or county’s building codes are against everyone, they usually aren’t. Their job is simply to make sure everyone is kept as safe as possible.
