2003 International Property Maintenance Code

March 16, 2008 Comments off

On the Monday prior to the last P.O.I.N.T. meeting, I’d added a link on the “PDF Library” page of this website to allow you to easily download a PDF formatted copy of the 2003 International Property Maintenance Code. In the text posted underneath the link on that page, I’d taken the additional step of explaining why that document is important. This is one of the things that I thought had been discussed in detail at last Tuesday’s meeting, but apparently there is still some confusion.

Yesterday John Martin asked me if the 2003 International Property Maintenance Code (“purple manual”) was available “yet” rom the P.O.I.N.T website. I informed that it had been up well prior to that meeting, so if anyone else is having trouble finding the link, I’ve copied that portion of from the “PDF Library” (reference) page on this site and pasted it below.

NOTE: On 5/1/2006, the 2003 International Property Maintenance Code was incorporated by reference under the “PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE” portion of the Piqua Code of Ordinances. However, currently this document is not available from any of the city’s on-line resources. Please use the link above to download a copy if you need one. Quoting an excerpt from the code section:

____________________________________________________
