The following code books were adopted by the City of McCook and are currently in use by the department:
- International Building Code, 2018 Edition
- International Residential Code, 2018 Edition
- International Plumbing Code, 2018 Edition
- International Mechanical Code, 2018 Edition
- International Fuel Gas Code, 2018 Edition
- International Property Maintenance Code, 2018 Edition
- International Existing Building Code, 2018 Edition

A copy of the above codes is kept in the building inspector's office at 505 W C Street and can be viewed at any time during normal business hours. Personal copies of building codes can be purchased through the International Code Council.
The Building Inspector is given the authority to enforce these codes through interpretation and through adoption of various policies and procedures to help better clarify the codes.
