Tri-County building officials have agreed to follow the guidance provided by the Tri-County Code Forums in order to promote the consistent application of code in the region. If you are working in a jurisdiction outside of the Tri-County region, you should check with the local building official on accepted standards in the jurisdiction.   Please note that we are in the process of compiling information for these web pages.
