Senate Bill No. 2284 Summary

• Establishes an interstate compact on industrialized or modular buildings to coordinate uniform regulation and standards across states, addressing confusion and costs created by varying state and local requirements.

• Creates the Interstate Industrialized or Modular Buildings Commission with commissioners appointed by each compacting state's governor, plus additional representatives from manufacturers and consumers to maintain a three-to-one ratio.

• Commission adopts model rules and regulations governing design, manufacture, handling, storage, delivery, and installation of modular buildings, and establishes uniform administrative procedures for plan review and inspection.

• Provides for interstate reciprocity where buildings approved by one compacting state under the model rules are accepted in all other compacting states, and allows interim reciprocal agreements with non-compacting states.

• Compact becomes effective when enacted by any three states; financing apportioned among states based equally on one-half share, population ratio for one-fourth, and manufacturing units ratio for one-fourth.
