Dacono, Colorado has adopted: 2024 International Building Code (IBC) — City of Dacono Building Codes page, adopted for all new permit submittals; 2024 International Residential Code (IRC); 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC); 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC); 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC); 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC); 2024 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC); 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC); 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC); 2024 International Fire Code (IFC); 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC); Adopted via Ordinance 1002 (December 17, 2025, effective date of the 2024 code cycle) and subsequently amended by Ordinance 1010 (March 23, 2026); prior code cycle was adopted under Ordinance 949 (October 9, 2023). The City's live Building Codes webpage lists these three ordinances directly beneath the Adopted Codes list.; Colorado HB 1091 (Lofgren & Johnson Families Carbon Monoxide Safety Act) is separately cross-referenced on the City's Building Codes page as an applicable state law requiring carbon monoxide alarms under specified conditions — this is a state statute the City flags for awareness, not a City-adopted model code edition.; HB22-1362 (Colorado statewide energy code/electric- and solar-ready standard, applicable window July 2023-July 2026): Dacono's adoption of the 2024 IECC (effective December 17, 2025, per Ordinance 1002) falls within this window. The City's Building Codes page does not itself cite HB22-1362 or describe the 2024 IECC adoption as an HB22-1362 compliance action — this connection is inferred from the timing and code edition, not confirmed by an explicit City statement, so it is not asserted as a settled fact for any permit-level requirement in this file.. Local amendments apply — see the Dacono overview page for the full list.

The 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) and 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), both adopted effective December 17, 2025 under Ordinance 1002 and subsequently amended by Ordinance 1010 (March 23, 2026).
