Information
Department Action
Chapter 233 Sec. 233.061 of the Texas Local Government Code establishes the authority of a county with a population over 250,000 to adopt and enforce the fire code. Collin County adopted a fire code in 1992. Collin County has since updated to the 2005 International Fire Code (IFC) and 2009 IFC. Amendments to the 2009 IFC were adopted in 2011. Adopting later editions of the IFC from time to time will account for changes in building methodology, advancements in fire protection and new technologies.
Over the past several months my staff and I have reviewed the 2021 IFC and amendments. In addition Mike Dixon and Kerry Lindsey reviewed and support our recommendation to update the fire code to the 2021 IFC.
I respectfully ask the Court to consider and approve the adoption 2021 IFC with amendments.
