Eaton, Colorado has adopted: 2024 International Building Code (IBC), Chapters 1-33 and Appendix Chapters H and I — adopted by Ordinance No. 664, amending Eaton Municipal Code Sec. 6-1-1, passed on second/final reading November 20, 2025; 2024 International Residential Code (IRC), Chapters 1-43 and Appendix AB — Ordinance No. 664, Sec. 6-1-2; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC); 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC); 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC); 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC); 2024 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC); 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC); 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC); 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC); Colorado Model Electric and Solar Ready Code, 2023 Edition — Ordinance No. 664, re-numbered as Eaton Municipal Code Sec. 6-1-12; Colorado Wildfire Resiliency Code, 2025 Edition — Ordinance No. 664, re-numbered as Eaton Municipal Code Sec. 6-1-13; All codes adopted pursuant to Title 31, Article 16, Part 2, C.R.S. Ordinance No. 664 was introduced/approved on first reading October 16, 2025, and passed as amended on final reading November 20, 2025; the Town's own Building and Permitting page states these codes 'will go into effect January 1, 2026,' a later effective date than the ordinance's own standard 30-day-after-publication clause (Section 17) — both dates are disclosed since the Town does not itself reconcile them on a single page. This corpus treats January 1, 2026 (the Town's own explicit statement on its current Building and Permitting page) as the operative date for practical purposes.; NOTE (data-integrity flag): A ProCode Inc.-branded 'Solar Permit Submissions and FAQs' handout linked from the Town's own Building and Permitting page (V4.5.22, dated April 2022, still bearing a Johnstown, CO return address) cites a stale 'Adopted Codes' list (2018 IFC, 2020 NEC, 2018 IBC, 2018 IRC) that predates both the Town's 2024 I-Code adoption (Ordinance No. 664) and the ProCode-to-SAFEbuilt rebrand. This corpus does NOT treat that stale document as a governing code citation; the current codes above (per the Building and Permitting page and Ordinance No. 664 itself) govern. The same handout's technical figures for wind speed (115 mph) and ground snow load (30 psf) are corroborated independently by Ordinance No. 664's own Table R301.2(1) and are treated as current on that independent basis, not on the stale handout's authority.. Local amendments apply — see the Eaton overview page for the full list.

Per the Town's Roofing Regulations and Ordinance No. 664's design criteria table: 115 mph wind speed and 30 psf ground snow load.
