The Building Code Appeal Board is a provincial administrative tribunal in British Columbia that hears appeals from municipal authorities relating to building regulations. It is composed of building experts and is independent from the provincial and municipal governments. Its primary purpose is to settle disputes between building owners, architects and engineers and local building officials. Board decisions are subject to judicial review at the British Columbia Supreme Court.
