Implementation Program 2: To continue to apply high <br />standards of construction inspection to all housing <br />development. <br /> <br />The various uniform construction codes (Building, Fire, Plumbing, <br />Mechanical, Electrical and Housing Codes) have been adopted and <br />are periodically updated by the City. These codes provide for <br />construction inspection based on nationally recognized safety <br />standards. The City's building inspection division has the <br />responsibility for administering these codes. Adequate staffing <br />of the division according to the level of development activity <br />is critical if the code standards are to be effectively main- <br />tained. The City is desirous that not only aesthetic but also <br />fire and life safety considerations be fully addressed in the <br />review of all new residential development. <br /> <br />Policy 3 <br /> <br /> ...to effectively encourage rental housing <br /> construction so that it represents at least <br /> one-half of total multi-family construction. <br /> <br />-8- <br /> <br /> <br />
