A. That the book entitled "International Fire Code," 2021 Edition, a copy of which authenticated by the city clerk is on file in the city clerk's office, is hereby adopted as the Fire Code of the city, as if fully copied at length in this chapter, but with the amendments set forth in this chapter, to replace the 2015 Edition of the International Fire Code previously adopted by the city council. B. That any references made in this chapter to "IFC" shall mean the 2021 International Fire Code. C. That whenever reference is made in the 2021 International Fire Code, or any other referenced standard or code, to "the authority having jurisdiction," "fire marshal," or "fire code official" for enforcement of the provisions thereof, the term "AHJ" shall be substituted therefore, unless otherwise provided for in this chapter. D. That the provisions in the 2021 International Fire Code are intended to be cumulative of other provisions and chapters of the El Paso City Code pertaining to fire prevention, unless otherwise expressly stated herein. To the extent that any provisions of the 2021 International Fire Code are in conflict with Title 18 of the City Building & Construction Code the most restrictive Code shall govern.
