Calhan, Colorado has adopted: Pikes Peak Regional Building Code (PPRBC), 2023 Edition, 2nd Printing, as amended, together with Appendix A and Appendix B, as published by Pikes Peak Regional Building Department, 2880 International Circle, Colorado Springs, CO 80910 — adopted by reference as the Town of Calhan Building Code under Calhan Municipal Code Sec. 6.01.020, 'and all secondary codes duly described or referenced therein.' This is the CURRENT governing code, adopted via an emergency ordinance whose text (Calhan Municipal Code Sec. 6.01, Section 16 'Emergency Clause') states the provisions 'must be effective prior to July 1, 2026 in order to limit the excessively burdensome energy code requirements that will increase the costs of development in the Town' — i.e. Calhan deliberately moved off standalone 2018-cycle ICC codes and onto the PPRBC bundle (which itself packages current-cycle IBC/IRC/IMC/IPC/IFGC/IECC/NEC secondary codes) specifically to get ahead of the statewide HB22-1362 energy-code floor before it tightened further on 7/1/2026.; Building Code Amendments (Calhan Municipal Code Sec. 6.01.040): RBC112 (Dangerous Buildings) is deleted in its entirety; RBC312 (Enumeration Code) is deleted in its entirety.; Permits, permit fees, and inspections are governed by Sections RBC105, RBC108, and RBC109 of the (PPRBC) Building Code per Calhan Municipal Code Sec. 15.08.020.K.1, as repealed and reenacted by the same emergency ordinance.; SUPERSEDED (repealed in their entirety by the same ordinance, Sections 6-14, but historically the town's prior locally-adopted 2018-cycle code suite, still referenced on the town's own website/permit-program page as of the last verification): International Building Code 2018 (former Calhan Municipal Code Article 5); International Mechanical Code 2018 (former Article 6); International Fire Code 2018 (former Article 7 — Article 7/Fire Code was NOT listed among the repealed articles in the ordinance's Sections 6-14 and its current status is unresolved, see tipsAndGotchas); National Electrical Code 2020 (former Article 8, repealed); International Plumbing Code 2018 (former Article 9, repealed); International Energy Conservation Code 2018 (former Article 10, repealed); International Residential Code 2018 (former Article 11, repealed) — this article's amendment schedule included Calhan's own local Climatic/Geographic Design Criteria table (30 psf ground snow load, 115 mph wind speed no topo effects, Seismic Design Category B, Severe weathering, 30-inch frost depth, slight-to-moderate termite, winter design temp 1F, ice barrier underlayment required, air freezing index 1,000, mean annual temp 45F) and several plumbing/mechanical/fuel-gas amendments (18-inch minimum burial for plastic gas/fuel piping, 20 psig/20-minute test parameters, 12-inch trap-arm and cleanout-related amendments); International Fuel Gas Code 2018 (former Article 12, repealed); International Existing Building Code 2018 (former Article 13, repealed). NOTE: the Town's own public-facing building_code_permits.php webpage still describes the adopted code as plain 'International Building Code 2018' as of the last verification — this is stale relative to the actual codified ordinance text, which governs. Direct code citation (RBC-prefixed sections) confirms the current PPRBC adoption is authoritative.; Fire Protection Impact Fee (Calhan Municipal Code Article 14, NOT repealed by the above ordinance — remains standing): imposed under CRS 29-20-104.5 authority (as amended by HB16-1088) on new development served by the Calhan Fire Protection District. This is a development impact fee collected at building-permit application, not itself a building-permit type.. Local amendments apply — see the Calhan overview page for the full list.
