15.72.010 - Adoption.

A. That this certain document, three copies of which are on file in the office of the city clerk of the City of North Las Vegas, Nevada, which is marked and designated as the "The City of North Las Vegas Building Administrative Code," is hereby adopted and made a part hereof as fully set out in this chapter subject to the following deletions, modifications, or amendments as hereinafter set forth. B. Exception to Requirement to Comply With the Most Current Adopted Codes for Single-Family Home Subdivision Projects. The Building Official may allow an exception for a single-family home subdivision project that has been partially constructed under a previously adopted edition of the applicable technical codes to be completed utilizing the approved building plans for the subdivision project without requiring compliance with the current edition of the applicable technical codes. This exception only applies to single-family home subdivision projects where no more than one hundred (100) lots are uncompleted. This exception to comply with the current technical codes will not apply if the current adopted technical codes include updates to major life safety items. All permits issued on or after January 5, 2026 shall provide for the installation of automatic fire sprinkler systems in residential dwelling units, regardless of whether the code of record is either the 2018 International Residential code or the 2024 International Residential Code. This exception to comply with the current adopted technical codes may only be utilized for a maximum of two years after the Building Official approves, in writing, a request for the exception. Any lots in the single family home subdivision project that are not completed within that two-year period will need to comply with the current adopted technical codes.
