HB 206
AN ACT relating to the Kentucky Building Code.
In Plain Language
This bill changes Kentucky's building code to allow residential apartment buildings with fewer than 6 stories to use just one exit instead of requiring multiple exits. Currently, these buildings need more than one way out for safety reasons, but this change would loosen that requirement for smaller apartment buildings.
Official summary
Create a new section of KRS Chapter 198B to permit less than 6 stories of Residential Group R-2 occupancy to be served by a single exit.
