. (a) There is, in the office of the executive director, a
coordinating council. The membership of the council shall consist of
the executive director, who shall serve as chairperson, and
representatives appointed by the State Director of Public Health, the
Director of the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development,
the Director of Housing and Community Development, the State Fire
Marshal, the Executive Director of the State Energy Resources

(b) Subject to the pleasure of the commission:
(1) The council or any member of the council shall, when called
and directed in writing by the executive director, work with and
assist an agency proposing building standards or adopting building
standards, or both, in the development of proposals for building
standards.
(2) When a state agency contemplates the adoption of any building
standard, it shall, prior to commencing any action to prepare a draft
of the proposal, advise the executive director, in writing, of that
intent and request the executive director to call the council, or any
member of the council, as appropriate, for assistance.
(3) Whenever the commission returns for amendment, or rejects any
proposed building standard, and one of the reasons for that action is
that approval of the proposal would create a conflict with existing
building standards of other adopting agencies, the executive director
shall call the council or any member of the council, as appropriate,
to assist in the elimination of the conflict.
(4) The council shall draft proposed building standards which the
commission is authorized to adopt pursuant to Section 18933 for the
consideration of the commission and approval, utilizing the criteria
of Section 18930.
