Winnemucca, Nevada has adopted: Nevada is a home-rule state for building codes: there is no single mandatory statewide building-code edition — each city and county adopts and amends its own code. The only genuine statewide floor is the energy code: Nevada's energy standards reference the IECC, and NRS 701.220 directs the State to adopt and update energy efficiency standards for new construction. Always confirm the specific adopted edition for the city or county in question rather than assuming a uniform statewide building code.

UPDATE (2026-07-16): unlike the 2018-2025 Wayback checks, Municode's hosted WMC (library.municode.com/nv/winnemucca) now renders live in a browser and was read directly section-by-section. Current online version: Supplement 14, updated April 8, 2026, codified through Ordinance No. 889 (enacted 3-19-2024) — but Chapter 15.04's code-adoption sections have not been touched since Ordinance No. 798, § 1.1 (adopted 1-21-2014), and the codified text confirms, verbatim: WMC 15.04.040 'The 2012 Edition of the International Building Code...is adopted by the city'; 15.04.050 same language for the 2012 IRC; 15.04.100 NEC section states 'The city designates the 2011 edition of the NEC as the adopted edition'; 15.04.120 'The 2009 Edition of the International Energy Conservation Code...is adopted by the city'; 15.04.140 same language for the 2012 IFC; 15.04.170 same language for the 2012 UMC; 15.04.190 UPC section states 'The city designates the 2012 Edition of the UPC...as such latest edition.'
