Sourced code administration · city in Oregon
Medford
Local option
Medford's code adopts the Oregon residential book generally — Municipal Code 9.101 — but the state's current list of local R327 adopters does not name the city, and no local R327 enactment, boundary, or effective date is established. What applies to your house sits in that carefully stated middle.
This is the page where the gap is the story: what we can't tell you yet covers the adoption question itself, ahead of any boundary or project detail.
The Rogue Valley still grows: 520 plant records are documented for Medford out of Oregon's 623, and living here puts them in order.
What applies to your house here
ORSC R327 is the local-adoption option here; no local application is normalized.
Medford Municipal Code 9.101 adopts the current Oregon Residential Specialty Code generally. Oregon BCD's current local R327 adopter list does not name Medford, and no current local R327 enactment, boundary, or effective date is established here. Build therefore shows Oregon's adoption option rather than an adopted Medford rule. Confirm with Building Safety.
No exact code-application record is normalized for Medford. The sourced code administration remains; it does not activate construction requirements.
