Committees

Chapter Active Committees

Our committees are dedicated to the ongoing education and betterment of the International Code Council. We believe that by working together, we can provide better resources like product evaluation, accreditation, certification, codification and training. Each committee shall consist of not less than two (2) members in good standings unless otherwise authorized by the Board of Directors. Committees shall be given specific charges and specific functions to perform by the President or as directed by the Board of Directors. All proposals or recommendations of committees shall be presented to the Board of Directors for final action.

Code Committee

The Objective of the Code Committee is to recommend code revisions, interpretations and code amendments. The committee selects code issues based on a common interest or significance to the membership. Recommendations will be posted from time to time on the chapter web page, but only after the membership has had an opportunity to provide input. Recommendations are in no way binding; the building official is solely authorized to render interpretations in his/her jurisdiction.

Public Relations and Membership

The American Heritage Dictionary defines Public Relations as "the art or science of establishing and promoting a favorable relationship with the public."
The mission of the Public Relations and Membership committee is to raise the profile and professionalism of the chapter through marketing, enhanced membership, and increased participation for the mutual benefit of the chapter and the people we served.
The committee has been focusing on two major programs in recent years – the Green Initiative and Scholarship programs. All goals, programs, and tasks of the committee are consistent with the “Chapter Goals and Objectives Strategic Plan.”
The committee meets on an as-needed basis.
