in Co l orado minimally conform to the State-adopted standard which i s currently the
1988 Uniform Plumbing Code. In preparation for the adoption o the 1988 edition ~f
the Uniform Plumbing Code the Di vis i on of Building and Safety has published
information in the Englewood Citizen regarding the proposed code adoption; has
notified all general contractors licen sed in Englewood of the proposed changes in
the new code edition and of the City's intent to pursue adoption of this edition;
and has met with the Englewood Chamber of Co11111erce to explain the nature of the
changes in the new code editions .
