Bill Summary

• Amends the Oklahoma Uniform Building Code Commission Act to clarify that sections 1000.20 through 1000.29 constitute the act's short title.

• Modifies Commission membership term limits to clarify that only full four-year terms count toward the two-term limit, and partial-term appointments do not count against term limits.

• Requires the Commission to establish a training and certification process for residential and commercial building code inspectors, with regional training offered at no cost and funded from permit fees, effective January 1, 2015.

• Removes the one percent (1%) per month late fee on past-due permit fee payments and authorizes the Commission to offer incentives for prompt payment instead.

• Maintains the permit fee cap at $5.00 for issuance and renewal, with fees remitted to the Commission within 30 days after each calendar month.
