As part of the strategic plan for the Village, the adoption of the most recent code cycle was identified as a goal for the Building and Inspection Services staff to complete. The code adoption process includes a review of the Village's current amendments to the last adopted edition of International Codes and National Electric Code. Building codes were established to protect the general health and welfare of the public as it relates to construction and property maintenance standards. The codes are continually reviewed internationally and nationally by the model code organizations in response to new technology, materials, energy changes, weather events, climate modeling, and fire/life safety events. 1 The ICC and NFPA typically update the published codes on a cycle of every three years. Most municipalities, including Mount Prospect, usually update the codes every two cycles or six years. Currently, the Village has adopted and amended the codes, which includes: 2015 International Building Code (IBC) 2015 International Residential Code (IRC) 2015 International Mechanical Code (IMC) 2015 International Fuel Gas Code (IMC) 2015 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) 2014 National Electric Code (NEC as published by the NFPA) The State of Illinois has not adopted a statewide building code; however, state statues mandate all local jurisdictions follow the Illinois Plumbing Code (IPC) and Illinois Energy Conservation Code (IECC) be followed by all municipalities in the state (except for cities with population above 500,000). The IPC and IECC are not being amended. Any local amendments to those codes require State approval. The Village does not have any new amendments to suggest to these codes, so they can remain as is. The codes being recommended for adoption are: 2021 International Building Code (IBC) with local amendments 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) with local amendments 2021 International Mechanical Code (IMC) 2021 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) 2021 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) with local amendments 2020 National Electric Code (NEC as published by the NFPA) with local amendments (NFPA does not publish this document online, Community Development has print version available for review) Adopting current codes is a responsible practice to stay up-to-date on technological and public safety requirements, and there are additional benefits for the Village and its residents. Up to date building codes are a factor in the Village's 2 overall ISO rating, which also takes into account numerous Fire Department related processes, procedures, training, and locational components. A municipality's ISO rating can affect the insurance rates of the residents and property owners, with a better ISO rating resulting in lower overall insurance rates. Additionally, the FEMA flood insurance program uses a rating system that evaluates the adopted codes of a municipality when adjusting rates for each location. Again, more current code adoption can improve the rates. The draft ordinance to adopt the 2021 codes includes the repealing of the previous international and national codes adoption and local amendments, then adopt the new codes with local amendments. This is done in order to make the code amendment document easier to read, as opposed to having several iterations of redline documents from code cycles of the past. The 2021 local amendments are substantially similar to 2015 local amendments. Many of the changes are 'housekeeping' in order to make the international code language reflect Village processes. For example, deleting or replacing international code language on permits, appeals, penalties, and adjusting subsection numbering accordingly. The Proposed Amendments and Changes in Amendments from 2015 to 2021 documents illustrate the local changes and are to be used in tandem to the international codes (links provided above). The most significant changes to the international codes was to the Building and Residential codes. A summary of changes are attached. Alternatives 1. Staff recommends the 2021 code cycle of codes with amendments for approval by the Village Board 2. Discretion of the Village Board Staff Recommendation After careful review by Village Staff, the 2021 code cycle of codes are recommended for approval by the Village Board with the attached list of amendments.

Type IV used to include heavy timber buildings (heavy wood beams and posts) but has now been broken up into four categories: IV -A, IV -B, IV -C, and IV -HT. Types IV -A through IV -C now identify specific requirements for mass timber buildings (built up lumber beams and posts), while IV -HT continues to regulate heavy timber buildings. The main difference between mass timber and heavy timber is that mass timber uses a layering system of conventional lumber (2x4, 2x6, etc.) to make larger wood structural elements, whereas heavy timber is generally large individual pieces of lumber/wood thatmake up each element. Mass timber can be built to much higher heights with more stories in the building. This has also been referred to as wood high-rise construction. • Some changes to the calculations of how to earn an allowable square footage increase based on the amount of frontage a building has, and the amount of open space around the building. • Revised requirements for maximum door widths. Previously doors were limited to 4 feet in width for each door. Now the door can be wider, but will require assistance in opening the door based on an equation that calculates pressure to open with a maximum pressure allowed. • Requirements on key operated deadbolts have been updated and can be used in certain situations where they were prohibited in the past. • Updated code sections for new materials in construction: High Pressure Laminate (HPL) and Metal Composite Material (MCM) used as exterior wall finishes. Previously these products were only used on the interior of buildings, but now have been modified to be weather resistant to function on the exterior of buildings. Additionally spray foam insulation standards have been added. Also the use of light transmitting plastic wall panels have been identified with limitations on use. • New requirements for intermodal shipping containers to be used in permanent construction. The stacking and ganging of prefabricated metal shipping containers has become a trend in construction because they are made to be stacked at varying heights and are generally made to standard SUMMARY OF INTERNATIONAL BUILDING CODE CHANGES FROM 2015 TO 2021 sizes. This update provides foundation and structural requirements for the modifications of the containers. Multi -Family & Commercial Buildings • Requirements for smoke control in multiple story spaces (atriums) along with emergency exiting regulations specific to atriums. • Mechanical access locations in enclosed parking garages: requires outside fire control access and greater fire separation ratings. • Addition of fire containment systems. The most likely application of this is where a glass curtain wall system extends beyond multiple levels of a building. There will need to be a fire containment product or system against the glass to prevent fire from slipping by the floor to the level above. • Updated requirements for handrail on "social stairs." Social stairs are those stairs most commonly found in large institutions that are in open spaces (interior or exterior) and can be quite wide and sometimes promote seating as part of the overall layout where people sit on the stairs to read, converse, or relax. Commercial Buildings • Adds codes specific to special amusement areas (puzzle/escape rooms): provides a definition of the area, where sprinklers are required, and how emergency egress is required to work in spaces that are purposely designed to keep you trapped and locked in for competition purposes. Educational Buildings • Updated requirements for locks in educational applications based on requirements for intruders and lock down purposes. Locks have to be keyed to the common area and free egress from inside the classroom for escape purposes. 70 SUMMARY OF INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL CODE CHANGES FROM 2015 TO 2021 2021 International Residential Code • Updated requirements for braced wall lines that they be placed on a physical wall or placed between multiple walls. This item brings into the residential code some of the shear wall requirements found in the IBC for years for structural purposes. Shear walls are not necessarily load bearing walls, but walls that prevent a structure from twisting and wracking under wind, snow, and seismic loads applied to the structure from the outside. • Emergency escape and rescue openings now require a clear 36 -inch -wide path to a public way. Previously the requirement was just for the escape openings to get a person out of the house. Now it includes a provision to get them safely away from the house to the right of way/sidewalk/street. There is no provision for a sidewalk to walk on, simply a clear path. This may lead to additional gates in fences if they exist and the elimination of some vegetation barriers along the path to safety. • An engineered design is required for storm shelters. Storm shelter requirements have continuously been updated over the past several code cycles to account for stronger winds and more severe weather, along with providing the basis for design that did not exist previously. • Deck design now considers snow load and tributary area for footing and post height. This is in response to the number of failing decks and balconies across the country. Historically deck foundations and posts are undersized or not structurally designed at all. • Specific requirements for deck guardrails were added to address structural stability issues in previous codes. Exterior guard rails now match interior guard rails and have new structural connection requirements previously left to be ambiguous. • Minimum footing size tables are revised to more accurately reflect current practice. For both decks and conventional spread footings, the codes have been updated to include more standardized requirements responding to material advancements and soil conditions. • New appendices for cob construction and 3D -printed construction are added. While these types of construction have not been proposed in our area to this point, the 3D- printed home may not be as far down the technology spectrum as it seems. The new codes are trying to get in front of the curve by setting limitations for these construction types. • A 30 percent reduction of airflow is permitted for balanced ventilation systems. This is a revision that builds on the whole house ventilation system required in new homes, which reduces the previously codified requirements. • A surge -protective device (SPD) is now required at the service panel. Instead 71 SUMMARY OF INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL CODE CHANGES FROM 2015 TO 2021 of needing a surge protector at each receptacle in a home to protect devices from surges, this requirement handles surge protection for the entire house at the panel location. This will eliminate the requirement for individual surge protectors at each location around the house. • The number of receptacle outlets required for peninsular and island countertops in kitchens is determined by the area of the countertop surface. Previously the number of receptacles was based on the length of the peninsula or island. This will likely result in more receptacles being required in islands and peninsulas. • GFCI protection is now required for damp and wet locations not included in the other areas requiring GFCI protection. 72 ORDINANCE NO.
