Council & Standing Committees

The State Building Code Council was created to advise the Legislature on building code issues and to develop the building codes used in Washington state. These codes help to ensure buildings and facilities constructed in the state are safe and healthy for building occupants, accessible to persons with disabilities and the elderly, and energy efficient.

Meetings are at 10 a.m. unless otherwise noted.

*Recordings after January 1, 2021 have been recorded via Zoom. The visual transcript is available upon request.
