History<\/h3>\n
\n

The Malheur County Building Department was established with the enactment of Senate Bill 73, which later became\u00a0ORS\u00a0456. On July 1, 1974, this legislation effectively created the Oregon State Building Code. The Department offers a full complement of basic inspection services. Area of service includes all of Malheur County except City of Ontario, limited to plumbing and electrical inspections.<\/p>\n

In addition to Ontario, Jordan Valley, and Vale, there are several other communities of size in Malheur County: Nyssa and Adrian are incorporated cities, while Juntura, Ironside, Jamieson, Westfall, Harper, Arock, Annex and Brogan are unincorporated communities. Malheur County is the second largest county in the State of Oregon.<\/p>\n
