Resolution adopting for the Town of Harmony, the Iredell County Building Code, current edition, and the current Iredell County Insulation and Energy Ordinance, and authorizing the Iredell County Building Inspectors to administer and enforce said ordinances within the Harmony Town limits.
Whereas, the Harmony Board of Aldermen, hereinafter called the Board, deems it best after considering North Carolina General Statute 160A-411, 160A-413, and 160A-360, and North Carolina General Statute 153A-122, that the Town of Harmony adopt and apply within the town limits of said town, the current Iredell County Insulation and Energy Ordinance dealing with the licensing of insulation contractors and others.
Whereas, the Board further believes that the best administration and enforcement of these codes and ordinances can be provided by the Iredell County Building Inspection Department, and that it would be in the best interest of the town Board and the Town of Harmony to request that the Board of Commissioners of the County of Iredell direct one or more of the County Building inspectors to exercise their powers within the Town of Harmony to administer and enforce the above ordinances.
It is therefore resolved and ordained by the Harmony Board of Aldermen, that the Iredell County Insulation and Energy Ordinance, current edition, and the Iredell County Building Code, current edition, be from this date henceforth effective within the town limits of the Town of Harmony.
