Minnesota Residential Roofer Practice Test

Rule 1300.0110 (Deputies) allows which of the following?

The building official may appoint deputies to perform duties under the code. Deputies may override the building official's decisions. Deputies may issue stop-work orders without authorization. Deputies have no enforcement powers.

Correct Answer:

The building official may appoint deputies to perform duties under the code.

Explanation:

Delegation of authority is how enforcement is organized: the building official may appoint deputies to carry out duties under the code. This setup lets the official extend their reach and keep inspections and enforcement running smoothly, with deputies acting under the official’s supervision and within the powers that are specifically granted to them. They don’t have independent power to override the building official’s decisions, and stop-work orders require explicit authorization rather than being issued by a deputy on their own. Deputies do have enforcement powers, but only within the scope given by their appointment. That makes the statement about the building official appointing deputies to perform duties under the code the correct one.
