How to schedule

Inspections are requested through the building department below.

Address
415 15th Street, Burlington, CO 80807
Phone
719-346-8652
Office hours
Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Fax: 719-346-8397. Building permits are administered directly by City Hall administrative staff (no separate, dedicated Building Division or named Building Official is published) — the Building Permit Application lists Jim Keehne, City Administrator, as the responsible city officer, with a Public Works signoff line also present on the form.

Inspection sequence

Applies to: Residential Addition / Remodel Permit

  1. 1

    Utility Locate Verification

    Required before any excavation-involving addition work begins

  2. 2

    Final/Field Inspection

    No itemized inspection sequence is published; Public Works signoff line appears on the permit form

Applies to: Residential Building Permit (New Construction / Addition)

  1. 1

    Utility Locate Verification

    811/800-922-1987 line-locate ticket must be completed and the Locate Form returned to City Hall before construction begins

  2. 2

    Final/Field Inspection

    Because no local building code is adopted and no dedicated Building Division/inspector is named in available City materials, Burlington does not publish a specific inspection sequence (e.g., foundation, framing, rough-in, final) for standard construction the way code-adopting jurisdictions in this corpus do. The permit form includes a 'Public Works' signoff line, indicating Public Works staff play some inspection/signoff role, but no itemized inspection checklist is published.

Applies to: Rooftop Solar PV Permit

  1. 1

    State Electrical Inspection (interconnection)

    Performed by a Colorado State Electrical Board inspector, per this file's directly-confirmed (2026-07-13) electrical-permit jurisdictional determination

  2. 2

    Final/Field Inspection (structural/roof-mounting)

    No itemized City inspection sequence for solar mounting is published
