How do those who have worked hard to achieve all of the required certifications and licenses feel about a Township in VA, and the DHCD covering for this individual for the past year and a half while he has tried, and continues to fail, to achieve his certifications?
The Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) takes the requirement of certification very seriously and works within state law to ensure that jurisdictions and code enforcement personnel understand their legal obligations under the certification regulations. If you would like to discuss issues or concerns regarding a specific jurisdiction or individual please contact DHCD Division of Building and Fire Regulation, Virginia Building Code Academy at (804) 371-7181.
