The resulting product better aligns the print and PDF versions of the I-Codes with the ICC’s Digital Code content. Additional information can be found at iccsafe.org/design-updates. Replacement of Marginal Markings with QR Codes Through 2021, print editions of the I-Codes identified technical changes from prior code cycles with marginal markings [solid vertical lines for new text, deletion arrows ( ), asterisks for relocations (*)]. The 2024 I-Code print editions replace the marginal markings with QR codes to identify code changes more precisely. A QR code is placed at the beginning of any section that has undergone technical revision. If there is no QR code, there are no technical changes to that section. In the following example from the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code® (IPMC®), a QR code indicates there are changes to Section 102 from the 2021 IPMC. Note that the change may occur in the main section or in one or more subsections of the main section. To see the code changes, the user need only scan the QR code with a smart device. If scanning a QR code is not an option, changes can be accessed by entering the 7-digit code beneath the QR code at the end of the following URL: qr.iccsafe.org/ (in the above exam- ple, “qr.iccsafe.org/abf893d”). Those viewing the code book via PDF can click on the QR code. All methods take the user to the appropriate section on ICC’s Digital Codes website, where technical changes from the prior cycle can be viewed. Digital Codes Premium subscribers who are logged in will be automatically directed to the Premium view. All other users will be directed to the Digital Codes Basic free view. Both views show new code language in blue text along with deletion arrows for deleted text and relocation markers for relocated text. Digital Codes Premium offers additional ways to enhance code compliance research, including revision histories, commentary by code experts and an advanced search function. A full list of features can be found at codes.iccsafe.org/premium-features. ACCESSING ADDITIONAL FEATURES VIA REGISTRATION OF BOOK Beginning with the 2024 International Mechanical Code® (IMC®) and the 2024 International Plumbing Code® (IPC®), users will be able to validate the authenticity of their book and register it with the ICC to receive incentives. Digital Codes Premium (codes.iccsafe.org) provides advanced features and exclusive content to enhance code compliance. To validate and regis- ter, the user will tap the ICC tag (pictured here and located on the front cover) with a near-field communication (NFC) compatible device. Visit iccsafe.org/nfc for more information and troubleshooting tips regarding NFC tag technology. ABOUT THE I-CODES The 2024 I-Codes, published by the ICC, are 15 fully compatible titles intended to establish provisions that adequately protect public health, safety and welfare; that do not unnecessarily increase construction costs; that do not restrict the use of new materials, prod- ucts or methods of construction; and that do not give preferential treatment to particular types or classes of materials, products or methods of construction. The I-Codes are updated on a 3-year cycle to allow for new construction methods and technologies to be incorporated into the codes. Alternative materials, designs and methods not specifically addressed in the I-Code can be approved by the building official where the proposed materials, designs or methods comply with the intent of the provisions of the code. The I-Codes are used as the basis of laws and regulations in communities across the US and in other countries. They are also used in a variety of nonregulatory settings, including: • Voluntary compliance programs. • The insurance industry. • Certification and credentialing for building design, construction and safety professionals. SECTION 102—APPLICABILITY [A] 102.1 General. Where there is a conflict between a general requirement and a specific requirement, the specific requirement shall govern. Where differences occur between provisions of this code and the referenced standards, the provisions of this code shall apply. Where, in a specific case, different sections of this code specify different requirements, the most restrictive shall govern. 102.2 Maintenance. Equipment, systems, devices and safeguards required by this code or a previous regulation or code under which the structure or premises was constructed, altered or repaired shall be maintained in good working order. An owner, owner’s authorized agent, operator or occupant shall not cause any service, facility, equipment or utility that is required under this section to be removed from, shut off from or discontinued for any occupied dwelling, except for such temporary interruption as necessary while repairs or alterations are in prog- ress. The requirements of this code are not intended to provide the basis for removal or abrogation of fire protection and safety systems and devices in existing structures.

Code Development Process The code development process regularly provides an international forum for building professionals to discuss requirements for building design, construction methods, safety, performance, technological advances and new products. Proposed changes to the I- Codes, submitted by code enforcement officials, industry representatives, design professionals and other interested parties are deliberated through an open code development process in which all interested and affected parties may participate. Openness, transparency, balance, due process and consensus are the guiding principles of both the ICC Code Development Process and OMB Circular A-119, which governs the federal government’s use of private-sector standards. The ICC process is open to anyone without cost. Remote participation is available through cdpAccess®, the ICC’s cloud-based app. In order to ensure that organizations with a direct and material interest in the codes have a voice in the process, the ICC has devel- oped partnerships with key industry segments that support the ICC’s important public safety mission. Some code development committee members were nominated by the following industry partners and approved by the ICC Board: • American Gas Association (AGA) • American Institute of Architects (AIA) • American Society of Plumbing Engineers (ASPE) • International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) • National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) • National Association of State Fire Marshals (NASFM) • National Council of Structural Engineers Association (NCSEA) • National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC) • Plumbing Heating and Cooling Contractors (PHCC) • Pool and Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA), formerly The Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP) Code development committees evaluate and make recommendations regarding proposed changes to the codes. Their recom- mendations are then subject to public comment and council-wide votes. The ICC’s governmental members—public safety officials who have no financial or business interest in the outcome—cast the final votes on proposed changes. The I-Codes are subject to change through future code development cycles and by any governmental entity that enacts the code into law. For more information regarding the code development process, contact the Codes and Standards Development Depart- ment of the ICC at iccsafe.org/products-and-services/i-codes/code-development/. While the I-Code development procedure is thorough and comprehensive, the ICC, its members and those participating in the development of the codes expressly disclaim any liability resulting from the publication or use of the I-Codes, or from compliance or noncompliance with their provisions. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, IMPLIED, EXPRESSED OR STATUTORY, IS GIVEN WITH RESPECT TO THE I-CODES. The ICC does not have the power or authority to police or enforce compliance with the contents of the I-Codes. Code Development Committee Responsibilities (Letter Designations in Front of Section Numbers) In each cycle, proposed changes are considered by the Code Development Committee assigned to a specific code or subject matter. Committee Action Hearings result in recommendations regarding a proposal to the voting membership. Where changes to a code section are not considered by that code’s own committee, the code section is preceded by a bracketed letter designation identifying a different committee. Bracketed letter designations for the I-Code committees are: [A] = Administrative Code Development Committee [BE] = IBC—Egress Code Development Committee [BF] = IBC—Fire Safety Code Development Committee [BG] = IBC—General Code Development Committee [BS] = IBC—Structural Code Development Committee [E] = Developed under the ICC’s Standard Development Process [EB] = International Existing Building Code Development Committee [F] = International Fire Code Development Committee [FG] = International Fuel Gas Code Development Committee [M] = International Mechanical Code Development Committee Copyright © 2023 ICC.

This change expands the current process from two independent 1-year cycles to a single continuous 3- year cycle. There will be two groups of code development committees and they will meet in separate years. The current groups will be reworked. With the energy provisions of the International Energy Conservation Code® (IECC®) and Chapter 11 of the International Residential Code® (IRC®) now moved to the Code Council’s Standards Development Process, the reduced volume of code changes will be distributed between Groups A and B. Code change proposals submitted for code sections that have a letter designation in front of them will be heard by the respective committee responsible for such code sections. Because different committees hold Committee Action Hearings in different years, proposals for most codes will be heard by committees in both the 2024 (Group A) and the 2025 (Group B) code development cycles. It is very important that anyone submitting code change proposals understands which code development committee is responsible for the section of the code that is the subject of the code change proposal. Please visit the ICC website at iccsafe.org/products-and-services/i-codes/code-development/current-code-development-cycle for further information on the Code Development Committee responsibilities as it becomes available. Coordination of the I-Codes The coordination of technical provisions allows the I-Codes to be used as a complete set of complementary documents. Individual codes can also be used in subsets or as stand-alone documents. Some technical provisions that are relevant to more than one subject area are duplicated in multiple model codes. Italicized Terms Words and terms defined in Chapter 2, Definitions, are italicized where they appear in code text and the Chapter 2 definitions apply. Although care has been taken to ensure applicable terms are italicized, there may be instances where a defined term has not been italicized or where a term is italicized but the definition found in Chapter 2 is not applicable. For example, Chapter 2 of the Interna- tional Building Code® (IBC®) contains a definition for “Listed” that is applicable to equipment, products and services. The term “listed” is also used in that code to refer to a list of items within the code or within a referenced document. For the latter, the Chapter 2 definition would not be applicable. Adoption of International Code Council Codes and Standards The International Code Council maintains a copyright in all of its codes and standards. Maintaining copyright allows the Code Coun- cil to fund its mission through sales of books in both print and digital format. The Code Council welcomes incorporation by reference of its codes and standards by jurisdictions that recognize and acknowledge the Code Council’s copyright in the codes and standards, and further acknowledge the substantial shared value of the public/private partnership for code development between jurisdictions and the Code Council. By making its codes and standards available for incorporation by reference, the Code Council does not waive its copyright in its codes and standards. The Code Council’s codes and standards may only be adopted by incorporation by reference in an ordinance passed by the governing body of the jurisdiction. “Incorporation by reference” means that in the adopting ordinance, the governing body cites only the title, edition, relevant sections or subsections (where applicable), and publishing information of the model code or standard, and the actual text of the model code or standard is not included in the ordinance (see graphic, “Adoption of International Code Council Codes and Standards”). The Code Council does not consent to the reproduction of the text of its codes or standards in any ordinance. If the governing body enacts any changes, only the text of those changes or amendments may be included in the ordinance. Copyright © 2023 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Accordingly, all I-Codes and I- Standards, along with the laws of many jurisdictions, are available to view for free at codes.iccsafe.org/codes/i-codes. These docu- ments may also be purchased, in both digital and print versions, at shop.iccsafe.org. To facilitate adoption, some I-Code sections contain blanks for fill-in information that needs to be supplied by the adopting juris- diction as part of the adoption legislation. For example, the IPMC contains: Section 101.1. Insert: [NAME OF JURISDICTION] Section 103.1. Insert: [NAME OF DEPARTMENT] Section 302.4. Insert: [JURISDICTION TO INSERT HEIGHT IN INCHES] Section 304.14. Insert: [DATES IN TWO LOCATIONS] Section 602.3. Insert: [DATES IN TWO LOCATIONS] Section 602.4.

INTRODUCTION TO THE INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE The IPMC establishes minimum requirements for the maintenance of existing buildings through model code regulations that contain clear and specific property maintenance and property improvement provisions. The IPMC is a maintenance document intended to establish minimum maintenance standards for basic equipment, light, ventilation, heating, sanitation and fire safety. Responsibility is fixed among owners, operators and occupants for code compliance. The IPMC provides for the regulation and safe use of existing structures in the interest of the social and economic welfare of the community. ARRANGEMENT AND FORMAT OF THE 2024 IPMC Before applying the requirements of the IPMC, it is beneficial to understand its arrangement and format. The IPMC, like other codes published by the ICC, is arranged and organized to follow sequential steps that generally occur during a plan review or inspection. ADOPTION OF INTERNATIONAL CODE COUNCIL CODES AND STANDARDS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE What does “incorporate by reference” mean?If a governmental agency or authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) over code adoption wishes to adopt a model code for legislative or regulatory purposes, it will enact an ordinance, regulation or law to incorporate by reference (IBR) the relevant code. The actual text of the model code is not included in the law, but the enacting law will include the full text of any changes or amendments enacted by the legislative body of the AHJ. Step 1 The International Code Council updates the current model codes every three years. Step 5 1FSLZFLJNXRTINܪJI and amendments are added or recommended through the review process. Step 2 The International Code Council publishes the code both in print and online. Step 4 The adoption timeframe is set. Step 6 AHJs set effective date, and notify stakeholders working on projects. Step 3 The model code review process begins with governments. Step 7 Code is adopted into law through legislative or regulatory action, citing the title, edition and publishing information of the model code. 23-22359 Copyright © 2023 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

The chapter synopses detail the scope and intent of the provisions of the IPMC. Chapter 1 Scope and Administration. Chapter 1 establishes the limits of applicability of the code and describes how the code is to be applied and enforced. The provisions of Chapter 1 establish the authority and duties of the code official appointed by the authority having jurisdiction and also establish the rights and privileges of the design professional, contractor and property owner. Chapter 2 Definitions. Chapter 2 is the repository of the definitions of terms used in the body of the code. The user of the code should be familiar with and consult this chapter because the definitions are essential to the correct interpretation of the code and because the user may not be aware that a term is defined. Chapter 3 General Requirements. Chapter 3 includes a variety of requirements for the exterior property areas as well as the interior and exterior elements of the struc- ture that are intended to maintain a minimum level of safety and sanitation for both the general public and the occupants of a structure. Chapter 3 provides specific criteria for regulating the maintenance of specific building components; vacant structures and land; interior and exterior of structures and all exterior property areas; and accessory structures. This chapter also contains require- ments for protective barriers, and gates therein, for swimming pools, spas and hot tubs. Chapter 4 Light, Ventilation and Occupancy Limitations. Chapter 4 establishes the minimum environment for occupiable and habitable buildings through light and ventilation criteria and occupancy limitations based on room width, area and ceiling height. Chapter 5 Plumbing Facilities and Fixture Requirements. Chapter 5 establishes requirements for the installation, maintenance and location of plumbing systems and facilities, including the water supply system, water heating appliances, sewage disposal system and related plumbing fixtures. Chapter 5 establishes these minimum criteria to verify that sanitary and clean conditions related to plumbing systems and facilities are maintained throughout the life of a building. Chapter 6 Mechanical and Electrical Requirements. Chapter 6 establishes minimum criteria for the installation and maintenance of the following components and systems within exist- ing buildings: heating and air-conditioning equipment, appliances and their supporting systems; water heating equipment, appliances and systems; cooking equipment and appliances; ventilation and exhaust equipment; gas and liquid fuel distribution piping and components; fireplaces and solid fuel-burning appliances; chimneys and vents; electrical services; lighting fixtures; elec- trical receptacle outlets; electrical distribution system equipment, devices and wiring; and elevators, escalators and dumbwaiters. Chapter 7 Fire Safety Requirements. Chapter 7 addresses fire hazards associated with a building’s occupancy and provides minimum requirements for fire safety issues most likely to arise in older buildings. This chapter also contains requirements for means of egress in existing buildings, including path of travel, required egress width, means of egress doors and emergency escape openings.

City Commission Meeting Dates: __February 26, 2024 (first reading) and March 11, 2024 (second reading)______________ Ordinance Number: __2024-05______________ Posted To Webpage: __March 6, 2024________________ This Business Impact Estimate is given as it relates to the proposed ordinance titled: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 6, BUILDINGS AND BUILDING REGULATIONS, ARTICLE VIII, INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, OF THE CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS CODE OF ORDINANCES TO ADOPT THE 2024 INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, MODIFIED AS FURTHER PROVIDED HEREIN; PROVIDING FOR THE REPEAL OF PRIOR INCONSISTENT ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS, INCORPORATION INTO THE CODE, SEVERABILITY, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Parts I-IV below are not required to be completed if the ordinance involves any one of the following types of exemptions. Please check if applicable: __ 1.Ordinances required for compliance with federal or state law or regulation; __ 2.Ordinances relating to the issuance or refinancing of debt; __ 3.Ordinances relating to the adoption of budgets or budget amendments, including revenue sources necessary to fund the budget; __ 4.Ordinances required to implement a contract or an agreement, including, but not limited to, any federal, state, local, or private grant, or other financial assistance accepted by a municipal government; __ 5.Emergency ordinances; __ 6.Ordinances relating to procurement; or __ 7.Ordinances enacted to implement the following: 132 __ a.Part II of chapter 163, relating to growth policy, county and municipal planning, and land development regulation, including zoning, development orders, development agreements, and development permits; __ b.Sections 190.005 and 190.046; __ c.Section 553.73, relating to the Florida Building Code; or __ d.Section 633.202, relating to the Florida Fire Prevention Code. Part I. Summary of the proposed ordinance and statement of public purpose: (Address the public purpose to be served by the proposed ordinance, such as serving the public health, safety, morals, and welfare of the City of Winter Springs.) The proposed Ordinance 2024-05 amends the City Code to adopt the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code, as modified therein, which adopts property maintenance standards for all property located in the City of Winter Springs, including residential, commercial, and industrial land. The City previously adopted the 2006 International Property Maintenance Code. Part II. Estimate of the direct economic impact of the proposed ordinance on private, for-profit businesses in the City of Winter Springs: (fill out subsections a-c as applicable, if not applicable write “not applicable”) (a) Estimate of direct compliance costs that businesses may reasonably incur if the proposed ordinance is enacted: ______The ordinance updates the property maintenance standards in Winter Springs from the previously-adopted 2006 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) to the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code, recommended by the International Code Council to best protect the public health, safety and welfare. The International Property Maintenance Code addresses topics such as maintenance of exterior surfaces (e.g., roofs, walls, soffits, windows); swimming pools; weed growth; and sidewalks in a clean, safe, and sanitary condition and in a proper state of repair. Only businesses maintaining their property as nuisances will be directly affected by potential code enforcement liens or nuisance abatement liens, as determined by the City’s Code Enforcement Board or a court of law. If a property maintenance violation exists, direct compliance costs will vary depending on the scope of the nuisance and the repair and restoration work necessary to correct the violation to restore the property into a clean, safe, and sanitary condition as required by the IPMC. Therefore, direct compliance costs cannot be generally determined at this time. However, overall, businesses in Winter Springs will benefit from enforcement of uniform property maintenance standards that will protect the public health, safety, welfare, and aesthetics of the surrounding community. 133 _____________________________________________________________________ (b)Identification of any new charges or fee on businesses subject to the proposed ordinance, or for which businesses will be financially responsible; and _____N/A_______________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ (c)An estimate of the City of Winter Springs’ regulatory costs, including an estimate of revenues from any new charges or fees that will be imposed on businesses to cover such costs. _______The City of Winter Springs will continue to utilize its Police Department and code enforcement officers to enforce the property maintenance standards and issue notices of violation or notices to abate nuisances, as applicable. No new regulatory costs are anticipated. No new charges or fees are anticipated to business owners.____________ ____________________________________________________________________ Part III.
