Fire Code Advisory Board
The Fire Code Advisory Board (FCAB) was created by the City Council over five decades ago to give the public and local business, industry and technical trades a clear voice in the fire code process. Board members advise the city on updates and revisions to the code and have played a crucial role in shaping the Seattle Fire Code. The 15 board members are appointed by the Mayor, confirmed by the City Council and serve a renewable term of three years.
Current members are designated by SMC 3.16 Subchapter V to represent areas of interest:
| Architects | Marine |

| Chemical Engineers | Mechanical Engineers |
| Fire Protection Industry | Port of Seattle |
