				is a nationally recognized model code setting forth minimum standards and
				requirements for detached one- or two-family dwellings and multiple
				single-family dwellings (townhouses) not more than three stories above grade in

				jurisdiction. Tiny houses do not meet the building code requirements for
				commercial or business occupancy and are therefore prohibited for these types
				of uses. The department will apply Appendix Q to factory-built buildings which
				meet the definition of a tiny house as having 400 square feet or less in floor
				area excluding lofts, and which are intended to be mounted on a permanent
				foundation and used as a single-family dwelling.
