Community Development Committee Meeting 07/23/2025 – Will Vote On Updates To Municipal Code Regarding Electrical Exemptions And Inspections Supervisor’s Citation Authority

The Community Development Committee is meeting 07/23/2025 at 4:30PM.

They have two items on the agenda which are both proposed text amendments to the Municipal Code.

The first are changes to Chapter 4 Section 4-392 regarding electrical exemptions. Per the explanation of the changes by staff: “Currently, the Municipal Code allows for owner occupants to do electrical work in their owner occupied dwellings, with a few exceptions: replacing service equipment and solar installations. The reason for these exceptions is because of the complexity of these types of installations. With this proposed change in code, licensed electricians would be allowed to do these types of installations in their own home.”

The second are changes to Chapter 4 Section 4-22 and Chapter 12 Section 12-32 that will clarify that the Inspections Supervisor has the authority to issue citations for violations.
