Fredonia, Arizona has adopted: Arizona has NO statewide mandatory building code floor for general construction — code adoption is a per-city/county authority under state enabling statutes (A.R.S. §§ 9-801 et seq., cited as the statutory authority in Town Code Chapter 151). The Town of Fredonia runs its own independent Building Department (administered through the Office of the Town Clerk) and adopts and administers its own construction codes; it does not defer building permitting to Coconino County.
