New Plumbing Code Provisions Argued At City Meeting

Appliance dealers asked two weeks to study the proposed plumbing code saying it could affect installations. Mayor Lawrence Hagg said another hearing would be held as dealers claim the code may foster monopolies and favors plumbers. Plumbers and inspectors noted issues with appliance connections and trap requirements, while costs for proper traps ranged from five to forty dollars. Several dealers and plumbers offered views on competition, installations, and licensing shifts to state authority.
