SUBJECT: Local Amendments to the Village Code: Title 10, Chapter 1, Section 2(D)—
Building Code Amendments (Plumbing Code)
FROM: Tony Budzikowski, AICP, Development Services Director 77
BUDGET SOURCE/BUDGET IMPACT: N/A
RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move that the Village Board approve and adopt an
ordinance to amend certain sections of the building code related to the Illinois plumbing
code.
Background/History:
Ordinance 2020-PLUMB-TA-G-1167 is on the Board's agenda to approve and adopt certain
local amendments to the Illinois Plumbing Code. Amendments to the Illinois Plumbing Code
are required to be reviewed every three (3) years. Pursuant to the Illinois Plumbing License Law
(225 ILCS 320, et seq.) and the Plumbers License Code (68 IL. Code 750.800), the Village of
Oak Brook, IL ("Village") requested consideration from the Department of Public Health
("IDPH") of proposed ordinance amendments adopting local plumbing regulations to address
health and safety issues not addressed in the Illinois Plumbing Code.
In addition, the Village is a Lake Michigan water allocation permittee subject to the Lake
Michigan Water Allocation Rules and Regulations ("Rules and Regulations"). These Rules and
Regulations require the Village to adopt certain local amendments to the Illinois Plumbing Code.
IDPH did review the proposed ordinance amendments related to the design of plumbing
materials and the operation and maintenance of plumbing systems and has tentatively approved
the amendments for adoption by the Village Board.
