The meeting was called to order at 6:11 pm. by Chairman Beebe. Beebe took this opportunity to welcome new member Chris King of the Fire Department. Mr. King is currently a Captain with the department and has taken over the duties of Russell Brickell who has recently retired. He is also maintaining his previous role as a fire investigator.
Beebe said the Fire department perspective on the NEC is very helpful and allows the Board to make more informed decisions.
Congratulations were extended to Verlon Myers for his recent appointment to the Contractor License Review Board. Mr. Myers was commended for his willingness to serve in this capacity and will do well in representing the Electrical Board.
Minutes
Minutes from the November 16th. 2009 meeting had been provided to all members. Myers made a motion to accept the minutes, Lisher seconded the motion; the motion passed unanimously.
The Board inquired about the appeal and if that project has been corrected and completed.
Staff responded that it has come up on an investigation type inspection since it has been inactive for over 6 months. At that time he contacted the homeowner and it was to be corrected once the weather permitted.
Beebe asked if the contractor of record on that project would be subject to any disciplinary action as a result of an assumed unsafe condition.
Staff was unsure if that would be the route taken, although the homeowner could file a complaint with the Contractor Licensing Board, if they would refuse to correct the problem. In most cases the work is completed to code standards by the original contractor or the homeowner hires someone else to complete it properly.
Correspondence
One email received from Phil Cogswell expressing an interest in filling one of the at large vacancies. Several members had contacted Mr. Cogswell about serving and are in support of his appointment. The request has been forwarded to the City Manager’s office.
Unfinished Business
None recognized.
New Business
Myers asked how many members we are lacking.
Staff said at this time we have two open at large positions. Additional discussion continued about soliciting another at large member.
A discussion began regarding the draft IRC amendment document. Staff thought he had mailed/emailed a copy to all members. Several members didn’t recall seeing a copy.
Staff has it almost complete except for one table. He added that the 2009 International Code software has been installed and he has access to this table electronically now and should be able to update it shortly.
It was requested to send out copies of the IRC draft to all members once the table is updated. Staff surveyed the members to see what type of medium they wanted the draft in.
Adjournment
Lisher made a motion to adjourn, seconded by Beebe; motion passed unanimously and the meeting was adjourned at 6:35 pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Phil Burke, Secretary
