Cal. Civ. Code § 110-11-2-.05
Appeals
Operative Text
(1) A subcommittee will be created and comprised of six members of the Department's State Codes Advisory Committee (SCAC): four county and municipal building official members of the SCAC, all of whom will serve on every such subcommittee, and two other SCAC members appointed by the chairman of the SCAC whose experience uniquely qualifies them in the subject area of, or whose individual fields of expertise are closely related to, the subject matter being appealed. (2) At the first State Codes Advisory Committee Meeting of each calendar year, an agenda item will be added to appoint which fours SCAC members will serve on all Appeals Subcommittees if any appeal is filed during that calendar year. (3) If an appeal is filed, the Chairman of the SCAC shall have five (5) business days to appoint the additional two SCAC members to serve for that particular appeal based on their experience relating to the subject area.
Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. ch. 110-11-2 § 110-11-2-.05 establishes the structure and composition of the subcommittee that hears appeals under the State Codes Advisory Committee (SCAC) process. Each appeals subcommittee consists of six SCAC members: four county and municipal building officials who serve on every such subcommittee, plus two additional members selected for their relevant expertise. The four standing members are designated at the first SCAC meeting of each calendar year, while the two subject-matter specialists are appointed by the SCAC chairman within five business days of an appeal being filed.

Under Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. ch. 110-11-2 § 110-11-2-.05, property owners and managers who pursue an appeal through the SCAC process can expect their case to be reviewed by a six-member subcommittee that includes both building officials and subject-matter experts. Operators familiar with this process generally ensure that any appeal submission clearly identifies the subject area at issue, since the SCAC chairman uses that information to select the two specialized members. Understanding the timeline—particularly the five-business-day appointment window—helps operators anticipate when the subcommittee will be fully constituted and the review process can proceed.

Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. ch. 110-11-2 § 110-11-2-.05 governs how the appeals subcommittee is formed when a matter is brought before the State Codes Advisory Committee. Tenants or advocates who believe a building code determination affects their housing situation may have standing to engage with this appeals process, and understanding the subcommittee's composition—including the role of subject-matter experts—can inform how an appeal is framed. Tenant-rights organizations or legal aid resources can help individuals assess whether this appeals pathway is relevant to their circumstances and what documentation may support a submission.
