The title of the person responsible for enforcement in a municipality is the building official.
Correct Answer:
Building official
Explanation:
Enforcement of building codes in a municipality is handled by the building official. This person is the head of the building department and has the authority to interpret the code, issue permits, approve plans, and require corrective actions through inspections. Inspectors carry out the field checks under the building official’s direction, but the ultimate enforcement responsibility rests with the building official. A technical officer handles specialized technical work and advice rather than enforcement. A fire marshal focuses on fire and life-safety code enforcement, often in a separate role or department, rather than the general building code enforcement for all trades.
