AI Summary

  • Allows school districts and charter schools to request that the state fire marshal authorize a city, town, county, or fire district to impose their local fire code on school buildings through an intergovernmental agreement instead of requiring compliance with the state fire code.

  • Permits school districts and charter schools to choose whether plan review, permitting, inspections, and regularly scheduled fire safety inspections are completed by either the state fire marshal or the local jurisdiction, with the local jurisdiction required to inform schools of any associated fees.
