Purchase Kentucky Codes
There is no statute or rule mandating code updates. Any changes to the code by the Commonwealth of Kentucky are submitted to the Department of Housing, Buildings, and Construction for review by the HBC Advisory Committee. The changes are approved in this forum and are forwarded to the Legislative Rulemaking Committee for public comment, further review, and final approval.
During the three-year cycle, proposed changes to the KBC & KRC may be submitted for consideration and voted upon by the Advisory Committee. The Division of Building Codes and Enforcement is responsible for complying with code changes and amendments. Once changes and amendments are adopted and entered as part of the state requirements, they become state law by the state statute.
