    Wenatchee, Washington — adopted-codes record updated

    • + NOTE WHAT SURVIVES THE PLUMBING REPEAL: Chapter 2.20 is gone, but the 2018 UPC is still adopted at WCC 2.04.010, so plumbing work is still regulated — through the referenced-codes chapter rather than through a plumbing chapter. Electrical has no equivalent: no electrical code appears in the WCC 2.04.010 list.

CONFIRMED ABSENT WITHIN TITLE 17 rather than not found. Oak Harbor keeps fire in a separate Title 8, which was NOT opened, so nothing is claimed about the fire code.

  • Codes updated

    Port Orchard, Washington — adopted-codes record updated

    • + THE BUILDING CODE IS IN TITLE 20, NOT TITLE 15. POMC Chapter 20.200, CITY CONSTRUCTION CODE, is the live chapter; § 20.200.008 is "State building code adopted".
    • + THE OBVIOUS PLACE IS DEAD: POMC Chapter 15.04 reads "Chapter 15.04 BUILDING CODE (Repealed by Ord. 019-17)" — and is still listed by name in Title 15's contents. Ord. 019-17 repealed it AND enacted Chapter 20.200, so the same ordinance is the hinge.
    • + International Building Code — locally amended at POMC § 20.200.012, which renames it: "IBC Section 101.1 is amended as follows: 101.1 Title. These regulations shall be known as the Port Orchard Building Code herein referred to as "this code.""
    • + International Residential Code — locally amended at POMC § 20.200.014.
    • + International Fire Code — locally amended at POMC § 20.200.016; fire chapters also at POMC 20.204 and 20.206, under Chapters 51-54A and 51-55 WAC.
    • + Washington State Energy Code — Chapters 51-11C and 51-11R WAC.
    • + RCW 19.27 — the Washington State Building Code beneath all of the above.
    • − THE BUILDING CODE CHAPTER IS REPEALED. Port Orchard Municipal Code Chapter 15.04 reads, in place of any section: "Chapter 15.04 BUILDING CODE (Repealed by Ord. 019-17)". No adopted building code edition is stated in POMC Title 15.
    • − Port Orchard's own code index lists Title 20, Unified Development Code, which is where building regulation was generally consolidated by Washington cities in this period. THIS GUIDE HAS NOT READ TITLE 20 and does not assert what it contains.
    • − POMC Chapter 15.08 Plumbing Code — still in Title 15.
    • − POMC Chapter 15.12 Fire Prevention Code and Chapter 15.14 Fire Sprinklers — still in Title 15.
    • − RCW 19.27 — the Washington State Building Code applies statewide regardless of what a city's own title contains.
