Summary

SBCC staff briefed the Plumbing TAG on preliminary economic-impact and small-business analyses required for CR102 filing. TAG members were asked to flag proposals that may add cost or affect small businesses; staff will poll members to schedule a follow-up meeting to finalize input before the October filing goal.

SBCC staff briefed the Plumbing Technical Advisory Group on the preliminary cost-benefit and small-business economic-impact work needed for the CR102 filing. Justin (SBCC economic-impact staff) explained that, in addition to the CR102 code-change text, the filing must include a preliminary cost-benefit analysis and a small-business economic impact statement that quantify costs versus benefits and identify disproportionate burdens on small businesses.

Staff asked TAG members to review the IMC and IFGC proposals they previously recommended for adoption and flag any proposals that incorrectly indicated “no cost” or that likely impose costs — especially costs that would disproportionately affect small businesses. Justin said the economic-impact workgroup will take targeted proposals for additional outreach when more information is needed.

The filing deadline and timing shaped the discussion. Staff noted an October 1 goal for CR102/public-comment filing and said the TAG could either finalize its economic input next week or identify priority proposals for further data collection. Brandon (SBCC staff) will send a scheduling poll to identify a meeting date that achieves quorum; members in the meeting provided availability constraints and asked staff to select a day that maximizes attendance.

No formal TAG action was taken at the meeting because a quorum was not present. Staff emphasized that the new economic-impact reports will be more detailed than in previous cycles and that targeted outreach to small businesses may be necessary to produce the small-business economic-impact statement.
