Building Code Plan Review

Act 12 of the 2005 First Extraordinary Session will require all new construction within the state to comply with the provisions of the new State Uniform Construction Code after January 1, 2007. This legislation also permits this office, the Office of State Fire Marshal, to establish contract agreements with municipalities and parishes in order to provide code enforcement on behalf of the municipality or parish.

After January 1, 2007 this office will be providing plan review of structures excluding one-and-two family dwellings for compliance with the applicable requirements of the Louisiana State Uniform Construction Code (LSUCCC) on behalf of any parish or municipality that requests our assistance. As such, it will be necessary for each applicant to determine if the proposed structure is to be located within a parish or municipality that has contracted with this office to provide this service or if other arrangements have been made...see full memo.
