Illinois Residential Building Code Radon

Thank you Representative Emily McAsey for introducing HB4665.  The bill amends the Illinois Residential Building Code Act. Provides that a contract to build a home must contain, in addition to the adoption of a referenced building code, a provision requiring that a radon mitigation system be included in the construction. Effective immediately.

Progress on the bill can be followed at http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/BillStatus.asp?DocNum=4665&GAID=11&DocTypeID=HB&LegID=64454&SessionID=84&SpecSess=&Session=&GA=97.

I understand that this would only apply where there is not currently not a municipal building code.
