BCSA AD HOC MEMBERSHIP AND REPRESENTATION

Overview

Triennial Report to the Legislature. Florida Statute, Chapter 553.77(1)(b), requires the Commission to make a continual study of the Florida Building Code and related laws and on a triennial basis report findings and recommendations to the Legislature for provisions of law that should be changed. This year (2005), the Commission solicited stakeholder input in the form of an on-line survey (conducted from August through September 16, 2005), and at the December Commission meeting the Commission will consider and develop a package of recommendations for enhancements to the Florida Building Code System. The Commission's recommendations will be a major component of their Report to the 2006 Legislature. In order to accomplish this in a participatory manner, Chairman Rodriguez announced on August 24, 2005, that he was appointing an Ad Hoc Committee comprised of Commissioners to meet in a facilitated process, and to develop recommendations to the Commission between October and December of 2005. The appointments to the Building Code System Assessment Ad Hoc are: Dick Browdy, Ed Carson, Nick D'Andrea, Herminio Gonzalez, Jim Goodloe, Jeff Gross, Do Kim, Randall Vann, and George Wiggins.
