HOUSE BILL 478
Law
Idaho electric code
ELECTRICAL CODE AND PLUMBING CODE – Amends existing law to provide for local enforcement of the Idaho electrical code and the Idaho plumbing code.
RS31131 / H0478
This legislation gives Counties the option to engage with a qualified licensed inspector in the state to provide inspections on electrical and plumbing projects. Current law already gives Cities the ability to perform these inspections. This legislation supports local control and provides for more timely and efficient inspections.
The fiscal impact to state and local government is solely based on the number of Counties who opt out of using inspection services from the Department of Occupational and Professional Licenses, and the number of electrical and plumbing inspections conducted by Counties.
