Body

The purpose of this and related ordinances is to update the city’s building code, adopt changes made in the various 2021 editions of the International Codes, apply city-specific revisions to the adopted codes, and to simplify, consolidate, and clarify the city’s building code support functions such as appeals, violations, contractor licenses, fees and third-party services.

 

Summary & Background

The 2021 IMC is retitled the City of Commerce City Mechanical Code and establishes minimum standards for the mechanical systems of commercial buildings. The most significant technical change over the 2018 IMC is the prohibition of ventless alcohol-burning fireplaces and appliances.
