Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger / EVSE Permit in Cheyenne Wells, Colorado

Cheyenne Wells publishes no dedicated EV charger, EVSE, or electric vehicle charging station permit type, fee line, or code reference -- not in its own downloadable Building Permit application form, its January 14, 2026 Fee Resolution (as reported in Board of Trustees meeting coverage), and its current Municipal Code Title 15 (Buildings and Construction). A residential Level 2 EVSE circuit installation would most likely be processed the same way as any other electrical scope in this jurisdiction: submitted to the Town, inspected/signed by the Town Manager, and approved by Board of Trustees motion at a regular monthly meeting -- but this is inferred from the town's general permitting pattern (the same inference applied to the solar-pv-permit entry); no EV-specific record appears in the town's public minutes.

When you need this permit

  • Permit application submitted to the Town (Town Manager/Town Clerk Administrator's office), same intake process as any other structural or electrical project
  • Town Manager inspects and signs the permit prior to Board of Trustees approval
  • Board of Trustees approves the permit individually by motion at a regular monthly meeting
  • No specific code edition, design-review process, or EV-charger-specific requirement was found published by the Town
  • Electrical work (including an EVSE circuit) is inferred (not verified) to default to Colorado DORA's Division of Professions and Occupations state program, per the same reasoning applied to the electrical-permit gap and the solar-pv-permit entry -- no evidence of a town-run electrical inspection program exists for any trade

Tips

  • Cheyenne Wells has no evidence of an EV charger/EVSE-specific permit process anywhere in its public materials -- apply using the Town's general Building Permit Application and budget for the same flat $25 Building Permit Application Fee used for other work.
  • The Town runs no electrical inspection program for any trade, so an EVSE circuit installation should be confirmed directly with Colorado DORA's Division of Professions and Occupations, which administers electrical permitting by default in jurisdictions without their own certified program.
  • As with any Cheyenne Wells permit, expect approval to be bounded by the town's regular monthly Board of Trustees meeting calendar rather than rolling staff-level sign-off.

Cheyenne Wells, Colorado has adopted: The Town of Cheyenne Wells publishes no specific International Code Council edition — IBC, IRC, IECC or similar — and no current National Electrical Code edition. None appears in Board of Trustees meeting minutes from June 2025 through January 2026 or in any town fee-schedule notice. This is recorded as unresolved rather than assumed. The Town's building-permit process does operate: it is evidenced by recurring line-item permit approvals in posted Board of Trustees minutes and a January 2026 fee resolution.; The town's own official website (townofcheyennewells.com, redirecting to chh.228.myftpupload.com) hosts a downloadable current Municipal Code (municipal_code.doc, last saved 2024-05-16 per the file's own metadata) whose Title 15 'Buildings and Construction,' Chapter 15.04 'Building Code,' Section 15.04.010 states verbatim: 'There is adopted by the town... that certain building code known as the Uniform Building Code, Short Form, 1961 Edition, as published by the International Conference of Building Officials... (Ord. 123 S1, 1963).' The fee table in this same chapter (Sec. 15.04.020) was last amended by Ord. 172 in 1984 (5 cents/sq ft, or a flat $5.00 for other work) — clearly superseded in practice by the town's own January 14, 2026 fee resolution ($25 flat + $0.20/sq ft) documented in localAmendments below, but the underlying 1961 UBC Short Form code adoption itself has not been repealed. This code-adoption ordinance predates and is distinct from the ICC (which did not exist until 1994), so it does not contradict the absence of a current ICC edition noted above, but it does mean the town is not wholly without ANY adopted building code on its own books; it is simply a very old one (1961 UBC Short Form via 1963/1984 ordinances) whose current enforcement status versus informal Board-of-Trustees practice is unconfirmed. Chapter 15.08 'Electrical Code' (Ord. 48, 1917) separately requires (Sec. 15.08.040(D)) that 'the inspector must in all cases inspect any electric wiring within the corporate limits of the town within forty-eight (48) hours of the receipt of notice from the electrical wiring contractor that the work is completed (holidays and Sundays not included)' — this is a POST-completion field-inspection response window for electrical work specifically, not a plan-review/permit-issuance turnaround, and is not encoded as reviewTimelineDays for that reason (see reviewTimelineNote on the residential-building-permit entry).. Local amendments apply — see the Cheyenne Wells overview page for the full list.
