Sec. 3. The legislative body of a municipality or county
may adopt this chapter by ordinance. The ordinance must specify the
executive department of the unit responsible for the administration of
this chapter or establish such a department. However, in a municipality
in which a commissioner of buildings was appointed to administer IC 18-5-5 (before its repeal on September 1, 1981), the commissioner of
buildings is responsible for the administration of this chapter. The
ordinance must also incorporate by reference the definition of
"substantial property interest" in this chapter.
