(a) Any rules and regulations adopted by the state fire marshal under this act shall comply with the provisions of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 77-415 et seq., and amendments thereto, except that:

(1) In addition to the method of providing notice of the public hearing prescribed by Kan. Stat. Ann. § 77-421, and amendments thereto, such notice shall be published three times in at least two newspapers of general circulation, with the last published notice to appear not less than 15 days prior to the public hearing.

(2) The state fire marshal shall make available for general distribution upon request copies of any nationally recognized code adopted by reference, marked so as to indicate the provisions thereof which have been so adopted. The state fire marshal may charge a fee for the copies in an amount equal to the cost of the copies and their distribution. Upon collection of any such fees, the state fire marshal shall remit to the state treasurer such fees in accordance with the provisions of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 75-4215, and amendments thereto. The state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury. The state treasurer shall credit 10% of each such deposit to the state general fund and shall credit the remainder of each such deposit to the fire marshal fee fund.

(3) In addition to the filing requirements of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 77-416, and amendments thereto, the state fire marshal shall publish all such rules and regulations and make the same available for distribution to the general public upon request, but the fire marshal shall not be required to republish the provisions of any nationally recognized code adopted by reference if such provisions are made available for general distribution upon request to the fire marshal’s office.

(b) The rules and regulations adopted by the state fire marshal under authority of this act shall be known and may be cited as the Kansas fire prevention code. Such rules and regulations shall have uniform force and effect throughout the state. No municipality shall enact or enforce any ordinance, resolution or rule or regulation inconsistent therewith, except that nothing in this act shall be construed to impair the power of any municipality to regulate the use of land by zoning or fire district regulations or to prohibit or regulate the sale, handling, use or storage of fireworks within its boundaries. Whenever a question shall arise as to whether another state statute or an enactment of a municipality is inconsistent with the provisions of the fire prevention code, it shall be the duty of the state fire marshal to make such determination after a hearing thereon with all interested parties conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas administrative procedure act. Any action of the state fire marshal pursuant to this section is subject to review in accordance with the Kansas judicial review act.
