Help stop governmental entities from requiring the use of vendor specific building materials  

SB 1266 and HB 2439 allow a city to enact building codes with local amendments but it prohibits a city from using a building code or other local ordinance powers to mandate VENDOR driven and PRODUCT SPECIFIC MANDATES in construction, which result in the direct or indirect prohibition of other products approved by national codes and standards.
