Additional Resources
The state of Mississippi does not have a statewide building code. Building code adoption and enforcement is primarily the responsibility of local jurisdictions. Mississippi does require that state buildings meet the requirements set forth in the 1997 Standard Building Code, mandatory for all jurisdictions.
In 2006, Bill 1406 created the Mississippi Building Code Council, and requires five coastal counties, Jackson, Harrison, Hancock, Stone and Pearl River to enforce, on an emergency basis, all of the wind and flood mitigation requirements prescribed by the 2003 International Building Code and the 2003 International Residential Code.
