NFPA 1141, Standard for Fire Protection Infrastructure for Land Development in Wildland, Rural, and Suburban Areas, is cross-referenced in NFPA 1 regarding MANDATORY sections of the Fire Code.
If the local authority has not properly adopted an equivalent standard, and has simply chosen not to use 1141, that would be an issue for the insurance companies that provide fire insurance ratings in that community.
There may also be administrative channels in the state fire marshal's office to help educate the local authorities regarding their obligations to provide a reasonable level of public safety, where violation of a national standard may be considered evidence of negligence.
