Modular construction in cities with over one million residents must comply with municipal licensing requirements for electrical, plumbing, and fire.

The bill mandates that modular construction in cities with populations over one million must adhere to existing municipal licensing requirements for electrical, plumbing, and fire suppression work. It requires owners to certify that appropriate licensees perform these tasks, and mandates that all such work be done by licensed professionals. The commissioner is directed to conduct a statewide survey on compliance and obstacles faced by modular units, component parts, and manufactured buildings in meeting local or state building codes.
