2023 Building Safety Month - ICC
May is Building Safety Month. This year’s campaign, “It Starts with You,” reinforces the need for the adoption of modern, regularly updated building codes. The International Code Council (ICC) is sharing educational materials throughout the month, with weekly themes to help individuals, families and businesses understand what it takes to create safe and sustainable structures.
We are now in Week 2 of Building Safety Month. This week’s theme is “Building Safety Professionals and You.” This week, the ICC is emphasizing the important role that building safety professionals such as building officials, plans examiners, permit technicians, fire marshals and others, play in keeping the nation’s homes, schools and businesses safe. For week 2 of Building Safety Month, the ICC has posted a series of posters, fact sheets, and social media materials that can be used to educate others about the importance of code officials in keeping buildings safe.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is also observing Building Safety Month with steps the public can take to make their homes safer and stronger. Modern building codes ensure that your home is safe not just on blue sky days, but also built using the latest practices and standards to protect against natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and wildfires. This month, FEMA is highlighting www.InspectToProtect.org. Anyone can use this resource to find the current building codes adopted in their local area, the kinds of modifications they can make to make their home safer and stronger, whether their code is up to date, and their community’s disaster history.
Emergency managers, building code officials, and policymakers can also benefit from FEMA’s Building Science resources, which provide tools for hazard mitigation stakeholders to create more disaster-resilient communities and reduce loss of life and property through the adoption of modern building codes.
Building Safety Month 2022 will focus on building resiliency, protecting our potable water supply, building safety careers and disaster mitigation.

Does your municipality value economic development & revitalization? How about health & public safety – or even parks & land conservation? As a resident, you can play a part in helping your community become more sustainable. Sustainable Pittsburgh and the Pennsylvania Municipal League encourages you to reach out to your local municipal officials to see what they are already doing and share how adopting a sustainability strategy will benefit government operations, foster community economic opportunity, and lead to a resilient, attractive community for all.
I joined a few of my mayoral colleagues at the Pennsylvania Municipal League Capitol Conference to receive legislative updates and to advocate for issues impacting our communities.
We are pleased to announce that Carlisle Borough has become certified through the Sustainable Pennsylvania Community Certification Program! We are recognized at the Platinum level for meeting the program's rigorous performance criteria, which track 131 policies and practices that define a sustainable community.
This certification acknowledges our progress in areas such as community design and land use, energy efficiency, health and wellness, intergovernmental cooperation, recycling and waste reduction, fiscal controls, and internal management and operations.
“Receiving this prestigious designation was truly a community effort,” Mayor Sean Shultz said. “We thank our many community and partner stakeholders for their efforts in embracing sustainability and helping improve the environment and the lives of our residents. This certification is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of all of those in our organization who make Carlisle a great place to live, work, learn, and play.”
The Sustainable Pennsylvania Community Certification is managed by the Pennsylvania Municipal League in partnership with Sustainable Pittsburgh.
