The Washington state 2021 Construction Codes effective date is currently Oct 29, 2023. This Building Connections article provides more information on the delayed implementation of the state codes. The target 2021 Seattle Code implementation date is delayed to no sooner than early 2024 as we continue our City ordinance process. Seattle cannot implement these codes any sooner than the state effective date. This code cycle, SDCI proposed new code changes at the state and national level to minimize new local amendments.
