Per the article,

“According to World Organisation of Building Officials, there were two distinct levels of building officials: (1) the professionally-qualified building controls administrators, who are technically and/or professionally competent in examining design documents for compliance with the Building Codes defined in statute; and (2) the technician-level building-work inspectors, who simply administer the various processes.”

The codes in effect in the US of A, the international family of codes published by the International Code Council, have no minimum requirement for a building official. There are minimum requirements for building officials and building inspectors in an appendix of the International Building Code that apply only if the jurisdiction adopts the appendix but, even so, the requirements are not stringent. Although many jurisdictions require registered design professionals, there currently are no requirements, in most jurisdictions, for any profession level review of plans submitted regardless of whether the jurisdiction requires registered design professions or not.

Building Officials According to International Building Code,Version 2003,Section 202,DEFINITIONS ,"BUILDING OFFICIAL. The officer or other designated authority charged with the administration and enforcement of this code, or a duly authorized reprentative." (unsigned comment by User 99.9.102.9)

Job Description[edit]

The inclusion of a job description on this page is appropriate, as it is not notable, and is not of an encyclopedic nature. I have deleted this twice, but user 99.9 .10 2.9 has reverted my edits twice. I am not going to delete this section again without consensus from the WP community, but it should be removed.

Response to third opinion request:

I am responding to a third opinion request regarding the inclusion of the "job description" in the article. Please note that responding to a third opinion does not give my opinion any higher value than those that may have already participated in the discussion. I do not remember any prior interactions with either of the editors involved in this dispute. In this case, I agree with Kilmer-san that the inclusion of said material is inappropriate for an encyclopedia listing. Furthermore, the current version included fails WP:RS and probably constitutes undue weight on top of that. Again, my opinion is of no higher value than any other editor's opinions.—_WikiMan^One 20:13, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Editor 99.9.102.9 has once again reverted deletion of unencyclopedic job description not meeting notability or WP:RS without discussion. Am procedding to problem resolution. Kilmer-san (talk) 02:20, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
