It's been a while since I've looked into this type of thing so I don't remember a lot but they don't consider tents a permanent structure. If the capacity is under a certain number then the codes don't apply. This is how they get away with the migrant camps. NYC got involved once because of a fire, but otherwise there is a blind eye. Also, US citizens are scum and migrants get the attention.
If the shelter is sticks and nails, it has to meet all codes. Even if its a one room shack. It's dumb. Community crap bucket in a tent is ok, but an improper S trap on a sink? Get Out!
Yes, it's much better to either live in a tent or be exposed to the elements. Typical bureaucratic government thinking. The biggest impediment to success today is interference by federal, state and local government.
Yet somehow these municipalities say its ok to live in a tent on a sidewalk or underneath a bridge on a highway or have 7 families rent one house. We still have to clean house at the state & local levels.
This is an emergency event. If the county has a problem with people living in "unsafe" housing than the county has a responability to give them safe housing. If there is not enough funds then start with the paychecks from the morons that are creating this problem.
purkiss80 - you got me again. If the purpose of this thread was to make me even more angry at the government than I already am, you have succeeded immensely.

Others will steal those same fruits, because those fruits do not meet whatever standards they impose. Worse, these unelected judges offer nothing in return
The people need to band together and say they aren’t moving out. Tents protect from nothing. Make local government enumerate what is not meeting code on each home. They provide more protection than tents or damaged homes. The local government can make a waiver. The local government entities must be removed.
Living outside in the elements passes their code. You must tell them to screw off and stay. Fight them if necessary. Sheriff's protect your people damnit.
If you think you’re going to hide behind a $20 carbon monoxide (battery operated at Lowes First Alert Battery-operated Carbon Monoxide Detector (2-Pack)) detector as an excuse for evicting a family (possibly with children) living in a wind-proof temporary structure and condemning them to the outdoors, or in a tent (with potentially the same hazards), in inclement weather, after they have sustained devastating and life-changing hurricane circumstances, well let me help you figure this out.
You have emergency powers, or perhaps just a simple variance solution, under the circumstances (maybe lacking a gas appliance) to allow habitation in these structures. Do you not think the elements of winter weather pose their own life-safety and health issues?
In addition, I would anticipate you have an emergency budget to accommodate the $20 per carbon monoxide detector and perhaps another $26 First Alert 1-A-10-B-C Residential Rechargeable Fire Extinguisher per fire extinguisher (per structure) so these folks could function with a gas appliance (according to manufacturer specifications as to combustion air) …. Safely.
The failure to fund a $20-$46 one-time expense for this (these) life saving device(s) under your emergency budget will speak volumes. (EMPHASIS ADDED) Keep in mind this expense improves the lives of potentially several family members. What’d be even better is if you provided, in addition, some blankets, sleeping bags, games, kitchen supplies, toiletries and food. Couple hundred bucks per structure. What would you desire under the circumstances in this sort of thing??
I appreciate, in advance, your most expedient common sense approach to solving this problem... which is very short, tick tock.
I look forward to your rapid response. If you fail to accommodate emergency expenditure of $50-$200, LET ME KNOW, we will get the community to do what you fail to do… quickly, and VERY VOCALLY without you.
and that was how the 5000 were fed...sharing what you had abundance of with those who had nothing or were not prepared...it began with a child who had some bread and fish to share....the AMISH with their skills to share, the pilots air dropping at their own expence, the people....WE THE PEOPLE....helping each other, and they hate it, using "for your safety" we require you to remain in a tent freezing to death...and have a nice day, your government that loves you...SUCKER!! Sic the DOGE on them...good boy DOGE...I'd name him KILLER
Let me also say, the Amish eat like crap. I had the instinct they were all non-gmo, organic type stuff, not so, much to my amaze. I have also used them for framing, amazing quick... totally know what they're doing.
Everything about the Amish demonstrates the spirit of GOD
But the tents they are now living in during winter weather are OK??
I am so sick of these tyrants. I hope they all burn in HELL when their time comes,
Put them in tents, and those who lost their homes in the flood into THEIR houses!
I like this AL!
POTUS will fix all of this!
They just have to survive the winter. They already had 6” of snow up on the mountains and it will be getting into the teens at night soon.
That is two months away. People can’t wait that long.
Yeah, that will cover it.

Common sense and concern for the welfare of the people dictate that the code be disregarded due to the weather etc.
I very much agree. What they are doing here is just is ethically criminal.

All regulations can be suspended in a state of emergency, which they are clearly in.
This only makes sense if the country tyrants wants the property owners out of the area.
Yupp because they hate you.
Meanwhile we're flipping a massive bill for illegals to have housing/ apartments/ hotels.
Then they term nc residents fuck you
These civil servant parasites would have starved a few hundred years ago.
How soft have we become to allow small men with clipboards dictate and boss us around.
You have captured the essence of our entire situation BNHB!

If there was ever an actual example of the gov't having too many employees, this would have to be in the top five ...
Easy problem to fix... just change the definition.
It's NOT a tiny house or a building. It's a wooden tent.
Does North Carolina have building codes that specify tent construction? No? I didn't think so.
Thank you, Amish, for building hundreds of wooden tents. :>)

We do what we got to do....👌🙏🏻👍
I do not believe the Amish built crappy houses
100%....it didn't pass "Their" Code..."they" can fuck off....
So much of the state has buildings that should be condemned, but a fresh little building isnt okay? We all know what this is.

By their fruits will you know them
Some give what they can
Others will steal those same fruits, because those fruits do not meet whatever standards they impose. Worse, these unelected judges offer nothing in return
Do FEMA tents comply with NC building codes? Asking for a friend...

My error in this situation would be not expecting my local government to come and kick me in the teeth.
If I were expecting it, I would roll over, spit out the blood, and unleash the hell that was pre-planned.
How are the Amish at welding? Like, steel plate on heavy construction equipment welding?

You want to know what is wrong with America....
THIS IS WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA
These fuckers.
A man and or woman should OWN THEIR FUCKING LAND
And the government should have NO AUTHORITY over it.
I suppose those living in tents are up to code?
Okay, I'm doxing myself:
Mitchell County,

Amish build to code standards and even higher, so this is likely some bullshit they're pulling to be dicks
