The city of Paola plans to transition to the 2018 International Building and Fire Codes, mirroring adoptions that have already been made by the cities of Louisburg and Osawatomie, as well as Miami County. Paola City Council members agreed, during their Sept. 13 meeting, to schedule a public hearing for 6 p.m. Oct. 11 at the Paola Justice Center to receive feedback on the proposed 2018 Building and Fire Code updated draft. Paola has been using the 2006 International Building Codes and the 2006 International Fire Code. City officials discussed updating the codes during a work session earlier this month and pointed out that the county and nearby cities are already using the 2018 codes.
