Section 455.015 - Legislative findings.
The Legislative Assembly finds and declares that:
(1)(a) It is in the best interests of this state that construction-related development activities proceed in a manner that is as quick and efficient as practicable;
(b) Ensuring that construction-related development activities proceed quickly and efficiently requires a flexible and responsive system for state building code administration and enforcement; and
(c) Having a flexible and responsive system for state building code administration and enforcement requires that sufficient staff and resources be available to assist the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services as needed.
(2) It is in the best interests of this state that state building code regulations encourage economic development, experimentation, innovation and cost effectiveness in construction, especially construction in rural or remote parts of this state. [2013 c.528 §2]
Note: 455.015 was added to and made a part of ORS chapter 455 by legislative action but was not added to any smaller series therein. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.
