§ 15-6. Scope of Uniform Dwelling Code expanded.  


Latest version.
  • Notwithstanding § Comm 20.05, Wisconsin Administrative Code, the scope of the Wisconsin Uniform Dwelling Code is revised to include, for the purposes of this chapter:
    A. 
    Additions, alterations and major equipment replacements for one- and two-family dwellings built prior to June 1, 1980. Because such projects are not under state jurisdiction, petitions for variance and final appeals under §§ Comm 20.19 and 20.21, respectively, shall be decided by the Town Board. Petitions for variance shall be decided per § Comm 20.19 (Intro) so that equivalency is maintained to the intent of the rule being petitioned. As the Town Board approves petitions for variance, the Building Inspector is granted the power to apply the results to similar circumstances by precedent.
    B. 
    Detached garages serving one- and two-family dwellings and any heating, electrical or plumbing system therein. Petitions for variance and appeals shall be handled as in Subsection A.
    C. 
    Residential sheds of over 120 square feet in area.
