STATUS 0 The proposal was presented to the Ordinance Review Committee on April 4, 1990. The committee supported the amendment based on analysis of subdivision decisions between 1986 and 1989. The analysis is included in the attached issue paper. Specific text to implement the proposal will be developed for inclusion in the advertisement for the May 29 public hearing. ATTACHMENT Attachment # 8 - Issue Paper ACTION 4 TEMPORARY POWER ORDINANCE I F DESCRIPTION 1PURPOSE There are currently no General Statutes that address the issuance of Temporary Electrical Power. Because of the frequency of requests for Temporary Electrical Power, the Inspections Division felt it important that the County establish a policy stating the conditions under which Temporary Electrical Power would be approved. In November of 1989, the Inspections Division drafted a Temporary Power Ordinance for Orange County, and submitted that draft to the County Attorney for review. STATUS The State Building Code Council is currently considering the adoption of an amendment to the National Electrical Code which will allow the issuance of Temporary Electrical Power under certain circumstances. The study committee (for the State) presented the amendment to the Council in March and the Council requested further information. The County Attorney's Of fice, however, has reviewed the proposed changes to the NC Building Code and feel that they are insufficient for determining when temporary power is appropriate. They recommend, therefore, that the County regulate temporary power by ordinance. They have drafted an ordinance for further discussion and possible adoption at the next public hearing.
