International Property Maintenance Code 2006
Operative Text
The International Property Maintenance Code establishes standards for facilities and conditions of all aspects of the property to ensure that structures are safe, sanitary and fit for occupancy. The Code deals with all aspects of the property including provisions for exterior conditions and maintenance such as painting, masonry, tuck pointing, roofs, gutters, handrails, landscaping, trash areas and general property upkeep. It also contains very specific standards for the interior of buildings, including general cleanliness of all common areas, handrails, stairs and painting, as well as conditions pertaining to the individual units. In addition it contains very specific standards for lighting, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical and fire safety.
Sun River Terrace Ch. 18 Art. V § 18-122 adopts the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) 2006 as the governing standard for rental property conditions. The code sets baseline requirements covering both the exterior of a property—such as roofing, masonry, gutters, handrails, and landscaping—and the interior, including common areas, individual units, lighting, electrical systems, plumbing, mechanical systems, and fire safety. Its purpose is to ensure that all rental structures remain safe, sanitary, and fit for occupancy.
