52:27D-122.1. Findings, declarations relative to building construction codes
1. The Legislature finds and declares that:
a. One of the specified purposes of the "State Uniform Construction Code Act," P.L.1975, c.217 (C.52:27D-119 et seq.), was the elimination of restrictive and unnecessary construction regulations that tend to unnecessarily increase construction costs.
b. While the overall effect of the statutory requirement that the subcodes of the State Uniform Construction Code be adoptions of the model codes or standards of nationally recognized organizations, including all amendments or revisions to such codes or standards, has been consistent with the intent and purpose of the "State Uniform Construction Code Act," there have been exceptional instances in which the amendment or revision of an adopted code or standard has included changes that are not consistent with that intent and purpose.
c. It is therefore necessary and appropriate that the Commissioner of Community Affairs be given the authority to limit the adoption of later revisions to the model code to include only those standards in effect on July 1, 1995, and any later revisions or amendments of model codes which would not be inconsistent with the intent and purpose of the act.
L.1996,c.53,s.1.
