Builing Inspection Services

The Mid-Minnesota Development Commission (MMDC) provides communities, that have adoptied the Uniform Building Code of the State of Minnesota, the availability of two Certified State Building Inspectors. Currently, MMDC has contracts with 14 cities and one township to provide building inspection services. In addition to Building Code assistance, MMDC aslo provides counties, cities, organizations and private businesses with the following inspection services:

• Hazardous Building Act inspections for several Region 6E communities.
• Handicapped accessibility inspection services
• Lead-based paint inspections and risk assessments for public and private organizations and businesses. (The primary reason for demand for this service is because of HUD requirements for such testing in housing units where their funds are involved.)
• Analysis of asbestos concerns for public and private organizations and businesses.
• Housing rehabilitation inspections, work write-ups and follow-up inspections for public and private organizations and communities operating a housing rehabilitation grant or loan program.

These building inspection services are primarily focused within Region 6E, however, MMDC has and does provide such services throughout southwestern and western Minnesota.
