Tusayan, Arizona — as published 2026-07-07.

Codes adopted

Arizona has NO statewide mandatory building code floor for general construction — code adoption is a per-city/county authority under state enabling statutes (e.g., A.R.S. Title 9 for municipalities, A.R.S. Title 11 for counties). The Town of Tusayan is a small (2020 Census population 561), recently incorporated (2010) gateway town that does NOT run an independent, self-staffed building department: it adopted its own local building-code ordinance but contracted the actual plan-review and inspection FUNCTION to Coconino County via an intergovernmental agreement (IGA), retaining only final permit issuance and pre-application/zoning gatekeeping in-house. Source: Town of Tusayan Engineering & Development page (tusayan-az.gov/engineering-development/) — 'Building permits are handled through an intergovernmental agreement with Coconino County... No construction may begin until the Town has issued its final signed building permit.'Town of Tusayan Ordinance No. 2021-03 ('AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF TUSAYAN, ARIZONA, ADOPTING THE CODE OF TUSAYAN, ARIZONA, BUILDINGS AND CONSTRUCTION, UNIFORM CONSTRUCTION CODES ADOPTED, ADOPTION BY REFERENCE'), passed and adopted September 22, 2021, adopts by reference: International Building Code (IBC) 2018 Edition; International Residential Code (IRC) 2018 Edition; International Mechanical Code (IMC) 2018 Edition; International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) 2018 Edition; International Plumbing Code (IPC) 2018 Edition; International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) 2018 Edition; International Existing Building Code (IEBC) 2018 Edition; International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) 2018 Edition; National Electrical Code (NEC) 2017 Edition (as published by the National Fire Protection Association); AND the Coconino County Building Code Amendments and Standards dated June 18, 2019 — all adopted by reference in full. This is the identical 2018 ICC suite / 2017 NEC combination that Coconino County's own Building Division uses countywide, confirming Tusayan's code baseline is deliberately harmonized with the County's rather than independently authored.

The County has begun a public process (open house held March 23, 2026) toward adopting the 2024 ICC suite and 2023 NEC, but as of this record's lastVerified date that update had NOT yet been formally adopted — the 2018/2017 baseline remains controlling for both the County and, by Ordinance 2021-03's adoption-by-reference, for Tusayan.
