The New Albany Board of Aldermen has adopted the standardized 2006 Building Codes documents, a move that will have minimal cost for contractors, but will improve safety.
A number of changes are going into effect Feb. 1 with the new code, although for all practical purposes any plans submitted now will need to meet the new requirements, according to Mike Armstrong, city building inspector.
He said the new code affects new construction, or remodeling that costs as much as 50 percent of the value of the residence.
