Tampico — Title 15 Ch. 15.18 Property Maintenance Code § 15.18.040
Appendices
Operative Text
The provisions as referenced in the appendices to "the code" are hereby adopted by the village and all such provisions in the appendices shall apply where referenced throughout the International Property Maintenance Code, 2015 Edition.
Section 15.18.040 of Tampico's Property Maintenance Code formally incorporates the appendices of the International Property Maintenance Code, 2015 Edition into local law. This means that any appendix material cross-referenced within that code carries the same legal weight as the main body of the code within the village. The appendices do not stand alone — they apply only where the main code text specifically points to them.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 15.18.040, property owners and managers operating in Tampico are expected to be familiar not only with the main text of the International Property Maintenance Code, 2015 Edition, but also with any appendix provisions that the code references in connection with specific requirements. A compliant operator generally reviews the full adopted code, including its appendices, when assessing maintenance obligations. Consulting the appendices alongside the relevant main-code sections helps ensure that no adopted requirement is overlooked.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 15.18.040 means that the village of Tampico has given legal force to the appendices of the International Property Maintenance Code, 2015 Edition wherever those appendices are referenced in the code. Tenants who believe a property condition may violate a code standard — including one tied to an appendix provision — can look to the full adopted code to understand what requirements apply. Tenant-rights organizations or local code enforcement offices can help identify whether a specific condition implicates any of those appendix-referenced standards.
