Building Department

No building or structure, regulated by the adopted code, shall be erected, constructed, enlarged, altered, repaired, moved, improved, removed, converted or demolished unless a separate building permit for each building, occupancy or structure has first been obtained from the Building Official.

Nor shall any building, occupancy or structure have any portion of the interior or exterior remodeled without first obtaining a permit from the Building Official. A building permit will not be required for painting, papering and similar finish work. Planning review and approval may still be required for minor development.

If you have additional questions, contact the building division directly at (970) 453-3180.

Inspection Line: (970) 547-3144
Inspections called in by 7:00am on a work day will be on that days inspection schedule.  If you call after 7am on Friday, the inspection will occur on the following Monday.  The same applies to major holidays when the office is closed; those inspections will roll to the next work day.
The inspection line is a voice mail system.  Please speak slowly and clearly, list your full permit number, street address, unit number (if applicable), and type of inspection.  Specific times are only honored for concrete pours; please indicate the time of your pour on the inspection line and be sure you have your frost report from one hour prior to the pour available for the inspector if your inspection is between November 1st and late May.
