RE: 2000 IBC v 1999 UBC code question

No, in texas, you can do whatever you want in unincorporated areas, and in
some incorporated areas also. Therefore, you occasionally see the 4-inch

don't your counties have building codes, inspections, plan checks, etc.
for all the unincorporated areas? My home county in the corn fields of
Illinois have had this for 40 yrs. and needless to say all counties in CA
have this.
