International Fire Code and Local Amendments

The Fire Marshal's Office is responsible for coordinating and conducting fire and life safety inspection services for the City of Austin.

The Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) Code helps ensure businesses and residences in and around wildland areas mitigate wildfire risk because it’s not a matter of “if” that happens, but “when”.

Building and structures located within designated WUI areas are subject to requirements for site, infrastructure and structure hardening.
