Uniform Statewide Building Code; homeowners who live off grid.

Summary

It directs Virginia’s Board of Housing and Community Development to amend the Uniform Statewide Building Code so that homeowners who are not connected to the electric grid are exempt from the code’s electrical system provisions, as long as the dwelling is otherwise habitable. The change would apply only to residential properties that live off the grid and could lower compliance costs for those owners.
