The new codes add hundreds of thousands of dollars to the price of a building
Not to mention huge barriers to entry. Where I live shit like this is causing a housing crisis: It's literally uneconomic to build new houses and the existing stock is being regulated out of existence. The last appartment I moved out of had to be knocked into the one next door to make it legal to rent again, and the price of the new place (which I found only weeks before my moving out date) was €100 more expensive. It's €200 more expensive now.
Isn't government woderful? Look at all the good it does. It allows companies to consult politicians (whom have never worked in the private sector) on matters that benefit the companies, err... I mean the people.

Residential has different codes, they are strict but they do not have the same requirements. The price really adds up.
