Oklahoma HB1847 amends the Oklahoma Uniform Building Code Commission's duties to review and adopt minimum building codes for residential and commercial construction. The Department of Human Services must collaborate with the State Fire Marshal to develop guidelines for family child care homes and large child care homes. These child care homes cannot be denied a license if they meet the International Residential Code's requirements. The bill also prohibits stricter fire requirements for these homes from any agency, municipality, county, or political subdivision.
