James Burgess for Ashburn City Council

Sec. 18-33Provisions saved from repeal

Unchanged since the 2007 code

Needs a look

Permit fees set nearly 30 years ago may not cover inspection costs, and residents can't find them in the code. See the fix

Plain English: what this chapter covers

This chapter says which state construction codes the city enforces (building, plumbing, electrical, fire and so on), requires every house and building to display its assigned street number, and sets water-saving limits for toilets, faucets and shower heads. It's short, and the list of code editions hasn't been updated since 2009.

Ordinance number 97-02, adopted May 1, 1997, relating to building permit fees, is not repealed and shall continue in full force and effect pending a revision of the subject matter by the city.

This is a plain-English guide, not legal advice. The official code is on Municode and at City Hall. Our copy is from April 30, 2026.
