Virginia Administrative Code › Title 13 - HOUSING › Agency 5 - DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT › Chapter 91 - VIRGINIA INDUSTRIALIZED BUILDING SAFETY REGULATIONS › Section 13VAC5-91-115 - Change of occupancy classification

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
When the occupancy classification of a registered
				  industrialized building is changed, the change of occupancy shall be in
				  accordance with one of the following:
1. A compliance assurance agency shall
				inspect the building, including any disassembly necessary, to determine whether
				compliance may be achieved for a change of occupancy classification in
				accordance with this chapter. If factory plans are available, then disassembly
				is not required to the extent that the factory plans can be reasonably verified
				to reflect the actual construction. Once any necessary work is completed, the
				compliance assurance agency shall prepare a report documenting the method
				utilized for the change of occupancy and any alterations to the building to
				achieve compliance. When the report is complete, the compliance assurance
				agency shall (i) mark the building with a new compliance assurance agency label
				in accordance with
				13VAC5-91-210, which replaces the
				existing label; (ii) place a new manufacturer's data plate on the building in
				accordance with
				13VAC5-91-245, which replaces the
				existing manufacturer's data plate and reflects the new occupancy
				classification; and (iii) forward a copy of the report and new data plate to
				the SBCO; or
2. A building official
				shall determine that a change of occupancy for an industrialized building meets
				the requirements of the USBC. The building official may require the submittal
				of plans approved by a registered design professional or inspection by an
				approved third party. A change of occupancy of a registered industrialized
				building, in accordance with the USBC and approved by the building official,
				must be reported to SBCO and the registration seal and data plate removed prior
				to occupancy.

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
A. The
				  amount of credit allowed shall be subject to the limitations provided by
				  13VAC5-112-20. An unused tax
				  credit may not be applied to future years. Any credit not useable for the
				  taxable year the credit was allowed shall not be carried back to a preceding
				  taxable year. The credit is not refundable.
B. If, due to adjustments, the amount of
				  actual tax liability as reported on the application changes, the amount of
				  credit that the qualified business firm will be eligible to receive will not
				  exceed the amount of credit authorized by the department. However, if, as a
				  result of adjustments, the tax liability decreases from the amount stated on
				  the application, the qualified business firm will receive a lower credit amount
				  based on the new tax liability in accordance with the percentage amounts
				  specified in
				  13VAC5-112-20.
C. For large qualified business firms, the
				  percentage amounts of the income tax credits available to such qualified
				  business firms under this section will have been determined by agreement

				  percentage amount shall not exceed the percentages specified by
				  13VAC5-112-30.

				  shall only apply to taxable income of a qualified business firm attributable to
				  the conduct of business within the enterprise zone. Any qualified business firm
				  having taxable income from business activity both within and without the
				  enterprise zone, shall allocate and apportion its Virginia taxable income
				  attributable to the conduct of business as follows:
1. The portion of a qualified business firm's
				  Virginia taxable income allocated and apportioned to business activities within
				  an enterprise zone shall be determined by multiplying its Virginia taxable
				  income by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the property factor
				  and the payroll factor, and the denominator of which is two.
a. The property factor is a fraction. The
				  numerator is the average value of real and tangible personal property of the
				  business firm that is used in the enterprise zone. The denominator is the
				  average value of real and tangible personal property of the business firm used
				  everywhere in the Commonwealth.
b.
				  The payroll factor is a fraction. The numerator is the total amount paid or
				  accrued within the enterprise zone during the taxable period by the business
				  firm for compensation. The denominator is the total compensation paid or
				  accrued everywhere in the Commonwealth during the taxable period by the
				  business firm for compensation.
