Staff would like Council direction and feedback on the following questions:
• In Council's opinion, is staff on the right track with the new focus of the Mason Transportation
Corridor project?
• From Council's perspective,what concerns are there regarding the bicycle/pedestrian trail south
of Prospect?
4. Radon Resistant New Construction (RRNCI. (7:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.)
Staff was instructed to prepare an ordinance for Council consideration regarding amending the building
code to require radon resistant new construction(RRNC). Staff was asked to bring the ordinance to the
City Council at the same time as the International Residential Code(IRC),which has been scheduled for
September 2003. This study session is to get the concurrence of the Council regarding RRNC in advance
of IRC adoption.
• Is the Council ready to vote on RRNC? The IRC includes a basic RRNC requirement as an
option for local governments in high radon areas,and staff has prepared code language and cost-
benefit analysis for this option. Alternatives have been suggested. Does Council desire further
information on alternatives,or on any other issues,prior to a vote?
• Does the Council still want to vote on this issue along with the IRC in September? If the Council
prefers, it can adopt IRC Appendix F now, although its effective date would be delayed to
coincide with the effective date of the IRC.
• Multi-family issue — Since the IRC covers only single-family detached, duplexes, and single-
family-attached(town homes),RRNC would generally not be required formulti-family dwellings.
Does Council want staff to include RRNC for other multi-family dwellings in the next update of
the Building Code, which is scheduled for 2004?
