2027 Triennial Code Adoption Cycle Proposed Rulemakings

CBSC will take action to approve, disapprove, require further study, or approve as amended the proposed code changes to various parts contained in the California Building Standards Code, Title 24, California Code of Regulations. Upon adoption, these building standards will be codified and published as the 2027 California Building Standards Code, Title 24, California Code of Regulations. Commission action will be guided by the nine point criteria established in Health and Safety Code Section 18930. CBSC will consider each agency's proposed building standards and its justifications, Code Advisory Committee (CAC) recommendations, comments submitted during the public comment periods, and oral or written comments received at these meetings. The public may comment on any challenges to the proposals or CAC recommendations. No new issues or new information challenging the proposed code changes may be presented to CBSC in the meetings where the commissioners are voting on the proposed regulations.
