NCTCOG recommends adopting these codes with no local amendments other than the regional amendments. The ultimate goal is regional uniformity in the model construction codes for the Due north Central Texas region. The commission members feel strongly that municipalities, contractors, architects, builders, and manufacturers volition benefit from the positive economic results coming from achievement of that goal.

In January of 1997, NCTCOG'due south Regional Codes Coordinating Committee, composed of building professionals from the public and private sector, directed its lawmaking review committees to review the latest editions of the model construction codes. The review committees held open meetings to consider the Codes and come up to consensus on regional amendments. Many representatives from cities and the individual sector participated in these meetings. Numerous local amendments obtained from a regional survey were discussed. Many of them were eventually incorporated into the attached recommendations based on their benefit to concern, industry, and property owners and their promotion of public prophylactic.
Therefore, in an effort to simplify the structure procedure, advance the safe of building systems, promote common code interpretation, facilitate the mobility of contractors, and reduce structure costs, the North Central Texas Council of Governments, upon the recommendation of the Regional Codes Coordinating Commission and its code review committees, encourages your jurisdiction to adopt the following model structure codes with "regional amendments":
| 1997 Regional Amendments | Format |
|---|---|
| 1997 Uniform Building Code – Regional Amendments Apartment Breezeway Stairs | [PDF] |
| 1997 Uniform Fire Code - Regional Amendments | [PDF] |
| 1997 International Plumbing Code – Regional Amendments Policy Recommendations for CSST gas piping systems | [PDF] |
| 1997 International Mechanical Code - Regional Amendments | [PDF] |
| 1999 National Electrical Code- Regional Amendments | [PDF] |
Fastened are resolutions, passed by NCTCOG'southward Executive Board, encouraging area jurisdictions to adopt these codes along with the attached regionally formulated amendments. For the benefit of builders and contractors, jurisdictions were as well encouraged to set a regionally consistent "code effective date" of March 1, 1998. The 1999 NEC is recommended for adoption January 1, 2000.
Please note that consensus could not exist reached on when automated fire sprinklers are required because in that location is such a wide range in fire fighting philosophies/capabilities of cities across the region. It was decided that the best grade of action was to provide an OPTION "A" and Pick "B" in the Fire and Building Code amendments. Cities should choose one or the other.
Please notation that NCTCOG recommends adopting these codes with no local amendments other than the regional amendments. The ultimate goal is regional uniformity in the model construction codes for the Northward Central Texas region. The members of the committees feel strongly that municipalities, contractors, architects, builders, and manufacturers will benefit from the positive economic results coming from accomplishment of that goal. As a follow-up measure, the NCTCOG' Regional Codes Analogous Committee intends to submit these amendments as proposed changes during the next Code Change Cycles of the respective codes.
