The Building Division is responsible for issuing building permits, conducting inspections and issuing certificates of occupancy. The division also has enforcement responsibility for the state building code and also provides building inspections for manufactured housing communities. The program establishes statewide standards for manufactured home community development and manufactured home businesses. The Building Division issues manufactured housing licenses and provides staff support to the Manufactured Housing Commission and handles code questions -- i.e., residential, commercial, foundations, drywall, roofing, footings and foundations, snow loads, demolition, school construction inspections and building code questions.
