Preconference Sandy Tour — Sunday, Sept. 29
The "Rebuilding the Jersey Shore after Sandy" tour took place Sunday afternoon during the Code Council's 2013 Annual Conference in Atlantic City, N.J. Attendees visited shore towns and several residential properties in various stages of reconstruction as New Jersey continues the massive task of rebuilding in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. Sites visited included Toms River and Seaside Heights, which recently endured a Boardwalk fire, as well. Seaside Heights Building Official Charles Lasky discussed the storm damage and challenges encountered during the rebuilding process. Roland Hall, Senior Regional Manager of Government Relations in ICC's Pennsylvania Field Office, was on hand to discuss the code implications. Look for more information on the Sandy rebuilding tour in the Building Safety Journal Online.
