§1730.25. Appointment of building official or contractual arrangement for such services; affidavit for exemption
Each parish and municipality shall appoint a council-certified building official or contract with other governmental entities or third parties as authorized in R.S. 40:1730.24 of this Part so that the unincorporated area of the parish is under the jurisdiction of a council-certified building official. A parish or municipality may use a certified building inspector in lieu of a certified building official for a period not to exceed four years from the date the state uniform construction code becomes effective in the parish or municipality. No building official or certified building inspector shall be appointed if he has any interest in any legal entity that performs commercial or residential construction within the jurisdiction in which he would be appointed. Nothing in this Part shall prevent a municipality or parish from appointing and employing other council-certified personnel and assistants necessary to perform the required inspections and technical duties and prescribing fees for construction permits and inspections as provided by law.
