16B.73 STATE BUILDING CODE IN MUNICIPALITIES UNDER 2,500; LOCAL
OPTION.
The governing body of a municipality whose population is less than 2,500 may provide that
the State Building Code, except the requirements for disabled persons, the requirements for
bleacher safety, and the requirements for elevator safety, will not apply within the jurisdiction
of the municipality, if the municipality is located in whole or in part within a county exempted
from its application under section 16B.72. If more than one municipality has jurisdiction over
an area, the State Building Code continues to apply unless all municipalities having jurisdiction
over the area have provided that the State Building Code, except the requirements for disabled
persons, the requirements for bleacher safety, and the requirements for elevator safety, does not
apply within their respective jurisdictions. Nothing in this section precludes a municipality or
town from adopting and enforcing by ordinance or other legal means the State Building Code
within its jurisdiction.
