Brimeyer, City Manager FROM: Harvey J. McPhee, Department of Inspectional Services SUBJECT: Construction and Swimming Pool Codes Amendments and Additions Attached is an ordinance proposed by the Department of Inspectional Services and reviewed by the City Attorney's office. This ordinance includes two sections covering the adoption of the 1981 Electrical Code and an exemption for a permit and fee for minor repair work under the mechanical ordinance. Another section will provide that plan checking fees for public pools be calculated according to the building code fee schedule. This is consistent with the method of calculation used for residential pools and all other construction. The last change includes a section to require the submission of heat loss calculations for electric heating systems. All changes are needed for clarification and consistency in the construction codes. Section 15-25 relates to the exemption of permits and fees for minor mechanical work. The fee schedule is patterned after the fee schedule used by the City of Minneapolis. Our mechanical fee schedule adopted last January, 1981 is similar to that of the City of Minneapolis. Several phone calls were received relative to permits and fees for minor mechanical work. Section 15-265 is intended to eliminate any jurisdictional confusion between the mechanical and electrical inspectors relating to the submission of heat loss calculations for electrical heating systems. A minimum fee is proposed for the purpose of having the mechanical inspector review and approve the heat loss calculations and the heating system. Such heat loss calculations have been required for systems other than electric heating systems, and ordinances in other communities do require such calculations for electrical heating systems. RECOMMENDATIONS: It is recommended that the first reading of the attached ordinance be waived and that the second reading be scheduled for November 2, 1981. 4100 0 SUIS NEWSPAPERS AFFIDAVIT OF PUBLICATION ST.
