The Building Commissioner is hereby authorized and directed to administer and enforce all of the provisions of this subchapter. Whenever, in this subchapter, it is provided that anything must be done to the approval of or subject to the direction of the Building Commissioner or any other officer of the town’s Plan Commission, this shall be construed to give such officer only the discretion of determining whether this subchapter has been complied with; and no such provision shall be construed as giving any officer discretionary powers as to what this subchapter shall be, or power to require conditions not prescribed by ordinances or to enforce this subchapter in an arbitrary or discriminatory manner. Any variance from adopted “building rules”, as defined in I.C. 22-13-1-2, is subject to review by the state’s Fire Prevention and Building Safety Commission (“Commission”), pursuant to I.C. 22-13-2-7(b), and said variance is not effective until approved by the Commission.
