Public Comment

We are accepting comments on the 2018 Seattle Code updates. However, due to the final steps necessary to complete our legislation, we will not formally respond to comments received after 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 27, 2020.

To provide comments on the proposed 2018 Seattle Energy Code amendments, or to get added to our mailing list, email Duane Jonlin at duane.jonlin@seattle.gov.

If you'd like to participate in the general 2018 Code Adoption process, or provide feedback, the best way is to attend a Construction Codes Advisory Board meeting where the 2018 Code changes will be discussed.

You can view public comments on the Project Documents page.
