Arizona SB1562 amends the state fire code to allow public school districts in certain counties to opt out of state permitting processes for building.
Arizona SB1562 modifies the state fire code to allow public school districts in counties with populations between 750,000 and 2 million to choose whether to submit to local permitting processes for building projects. The bill exempts these districts from state permitting requirements but mandates compliance with applicable local codes. It also outlines procedures for fire inspections, permits, and enforcement, and allows for intergovernmental agreements to manage fire safety inspections for school buildings. The state fire code remains the minimum standard for state and county buildings.
