Lamar, Colorado has adopted: 2018 International Building Code (IBC); 2018 International Residential Code (IRC); 2018 International Mechanical Code (IMC) (listed on the City's page as '2018 Mechanical Code'); 2018 International Plumbing Code (IPC); 2018 International Fire Code (IFC); 2018 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC); 2018 International Existing Building Code (IEBC); 2018 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) (listed on the City's page as '2018 International Energy Code'); 2015 International Energy Conservation Code (listed separately on the City's page as '2015 Energy Conservation Code' alongside the 2018 IECC entry — the page lists both without clarifying which governs; treated here as a verbatim-as-published discrepancy rather than resolved by assumption); 2015 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC); 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards; 2006 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC); Codes are enforced within Lamar city limits AND for any properties connected/connecting to City water/wastewater within a 3-mile radius of the City limits, per the Building Department's own scoping statement.; HB22-1362 (Colorado Building Greenhouse Gas Emissions Act) compliance note: Lamar's own Building Department webpage lists the 2018 IECC (plus a separately-listed 2015 Energy Conservation Code entry) as the currently enforced energy code, which pre-dates the 2021 IECC-family editions that HB22-1362 nominally directs Colorado jurisdictions to adopt on a phased statewide timeline. HB22-1362's own statutory carve-out mechanism is a 'rural county' exemption (grant-application-contingent, allowing continued use of one of the 3 most recent IECC editions in lieu of the model low-energy/electric-ready codes) that applies at the COUNTY level, not a flat municipal population threshold — Prowers County (est. population ~11,900-12,300) would plausibly qualify as rural under this mechanism, but the City's own webpage does not cite HB22-1362, a grant application, or any rural-county determination as the basis for its 2018 IECC adoption. This is reported as an honest as-published discrepancy, not resolved by assumption; confidence on code-currency is 'partial' for this reason alone (the codes-adopted list itself, as literally published by the City, is verified).. Local amendments apply — see the Lamar overview page for the full list.
