HB5663 Summary

• Amends the Stille-DeRossett-Hale single state construction code act to add provisions regarding inspection bonds for building permits.

• Allows enforcing agencies to declare an inspection bond forfeited and deposit the funds into the permitting jurisdiction's general fund if construction work is not completed by the building permit's expiration date.

• Makes minor grammatical and technical corrections throughout the statute, including replacing "shall" with "must" and updating references to the occupational code's licensing number ranges.

• Clarifies language regarding roadside stand electrical code compliance, changing "However, a qualifying roadside stand that has electric power" to "If a qualifying roadside stand has electric power, it" for improved clarity.
