Maine Uniform Building and Energy Codes

With P.L. 2007 Resolve 46, the Legislature recognized that Maine needs more uniformity of building-related codes across the state. It directed the state to develop a building and building rehabilitation code implementation plan. A committee comprised of the departments of Economic and Community Development and Professional and Financial Regulation, the Fire Marshal’s Office, Maine Historic Preservation Commission, and State Planning Office presented their recommendations report and implementation plan to the Business Research and Economic Development (BRED) Committee on January 31, 2008. The BRED Committee accepted the committee’s recommendations and enacted PL 2007, Chapter 699. On January 1, 2010, Maine will have a new statewide building and energy code. A new board will streamline code administration and a uniform code will bring more consistency to builders, developers, and towns.
