Rooftop Solar / Photovoltaic Permit

That statewide base schedule (townoflarkspur.org/media/2901, hosted live by the Town of Larkspur, CO, printed with DORA's own Denver address/phone) sets Section B "Commercial and other fees" (which Larimer County's current Table 1-E, larimer.org/sites/default/files/2020_electrical_fee_table.pdf, explicitly confirms includes solar) at $100 base for valuation up to $2,000, plus $10/thousand above. This governs the ceiling and formula for whatever La Salle/ProCode ultimately charges, even though La Salle's own specific multiplier was not independently published. |
EV Charger / EVSE Permit
Electric vehicle charging equipment (EVSE) installation in La Salle is processed as ordinary electrical work, issued locally by the Town (via its contracted plan-review/inspection agency, ProCode Inc., a SAFEbuilt company) under the 2020 NEC as adopted — the same mechanism documented on this file's general Electrical Permit entry. The Town's Building Permits page does not itemize EV chargers, EVSE, or charging stations as their own named project type, and no current numeric building-permit fee schedule (valuation-tier table) of any kind is published anywhere on the Town's website; the page states only the calculation method (valuation-based, including labor/materials/profit) plus a flat 2% construction use tax on material cost.

- Town/ProCode staff verify DORA license status contemporaneously using DORA's licensing service
- As a town of roughly 3,500 residents, La Salle falls below the population threshold (10,000) that makes a Colorado municipality a 'covered municipality' under HB24-1173 (Electric Vehicle Charging System Permits Act), so it was not required to take a Dec. 31, 2025 compliance action under that law

Re-chased 2026-07-23: Municode's current codification (Sec. 18-48, current through Ordinance No. 19-2025, 12/9/2025) reconfirms electrical permit fees are set 'from time to time by resolution of the board of trustees and set forth in the town fee schedule' rather than being codified — matching every other trade in this file.

Commercial Building Permit (New Construction / Addition)
Required for new commercial building construction and commercial additions in the Town of La Salle. The Town's own Building Permits page presents a single unified permit system (it does not itemize commercial as a separate track — its illustrative project list is residential-flavored), but the Town's contracted plan-review/inspection agency ProCode Inc. (SAFEbuilt) explicitly categorizes 'NEW COMMERCIAL BUILDING' and 'COMMERCIAL ADDITION' as distinct permit types requiring formal plan review in its published 'Requires a Plan Review' handout. Reviewed under the IBC as adopted (the Town's live webpage states 2018 I-Codes; the Town's current Municode codification, Sec. 18-18 as amended by Ord. No. 19-2025, adopts the 2024 IBC — see this file's codesAdopted notes for the documented conflict between the two Town channels), with the same Community Core application portal, valuation-based fee method, and 2% construction use tax as all other La Salle permits.

No. 19-2025) adopts the 2024 IECC
- Health Department pre-approval: per ProCode's 'Health Department Review Information' handout, plan review and approval by the county health department is required BEFORE construction starts — and building permits are held until health-department plan approval — for new construction or remodeling of restaurants, delis, coffee shops, concession stands, catering operations, bars, hotels, grocery/convenience stores, food/beverage manufacturing, food warehouses, health care facilities, daycare centers, schools, and pools. For La Salle (Weld County), the reviewing agency is the Weld County Department of Public Health & Environment, 1555 North 17th Avenue, Greeley, CO 80631, 970-304-6410, weldhealth.org

Fetched and read in full directly. Its 'BUILDING PERMIT FEES' section states it is 'APPENDIX L 2018 IRC' and gives the complete valuation-tier base-fee table (e.g. $1-$5,900 = $24; $2,001-$40,000 = $69 for the first $2,000 plus $11 per additional $1,000 or fraction thereof; up to $5,000,001+ = $18,327 for the first $5,000,000 plus $1 per additional $1,000). Two category multipliers are then applied to that base fee: 'Residential Construction — 65% of Permit fee' and 'Non-Residential Construction — 65% of Permit fee.' Commercial new construction and additions fall under 'Non-Residential Construction' — the schedule does not further subdivide commercial by new-construction vs. addition, consistent with this file's own documented finding that La Salle runs one unified fee method across project types. A separate 'Administration Fee' line applies on top of the 65%-of-base figure: '$25.00' for 'Residential and Counter Permits' vs '$50.00' for 'Commercial.' No plan-review turnaround/day-count figures appear anywhere in this 12-page document — it resolves only the fee gap, not the timeline gap (see reviewTimelineNote).

Use Tax will be calculated based on 50% of the calculated cost or the provided material cost whichever is greater.' |

Commercial Remodel / Tenant Finish Permit
Required for commercial remodels and tenant finish (tenant improvement) work in La Salle. 'COMMERCIAL REMODEL/TENANT FINISH' is a distinctly named permit category on ProCode/SAFEbuilt's published 'Requires a Plan Review' handout — separate from NEW COMMERCIAL BUILDING and COMMERCIAL ADDITION — confirming TI work is recognized as its own permit type at plan-review intake, though it runs through the same unified process as every other La Salle permit (Community Core application, ProCode plan review, valuation-based fee, 2% use tax). No TI-specific fee schedule, submittal checklist, or timeline is published; the naming on ProCode's handout is the extent of the published differentiation.

No. 19-2025) added a new Article XII adopting the IEBC, directly relevant to work in existing commercial buildings; full verification of that new article's text was flagged in this file's codesAdopted notes as a dedicated follow-up
- Health Department pre-approval before permit issuance applies to TI/remodel scope, not just new construction: ProCode's handout requires county health-department plan approval for 'remodeling of existing operations' of restaurants, delis, coffee shops, bars, catering, hotels, grocery/convenience stores, food manufacturing/warehouses, health-care facilities, daycares, schools, and pools — for La Salle this is the Weld County Department of Public Health & Environment (970-304-6410, weldhealth.org)
- Electrical and plumbing contractors must hold current Colorado DORA licenses, registered with the Town/ProCode and subject to contemporaneous verification, with commercial sites an explicit field-review emphasis; a commercial electrical service change tied to a TI is itself a plan-review-required permit type
- Application submitted through the Town's Community Core online permitting system; hard copy of reviewed/stamped plans required on the job site
Required documents
- RequiredBuilding Permit ApplicationSubmitted via Community Core, scoped to the tenant space/remodel

Fee schedule
| Fee type | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Commercial Remodel / Tenant Finish Permit Fee | Non-Residential Construction: 65% of the Appendix L (2018 IRC) valuation-tier base permit fee, plus a $50.00 Commercial Administration Fee | GAP CLOSED 2026-08-02 via independent adversarial re-chase, using a genuinely new research avenue (a direct web search for a fee-schedule resolution/document, rather than re-browsing the Building… Show full citationHideGAP CLOSED 2026-08-02 via independent adversarial re-chase, using a genuinely new research avenue (a direct web search for a fee-schedule resolution/document, rather than re-browsing the Building Permits/Development Fees pages the prior chases had already exhausted): the Town's own '2026 Fee Schedule, Effective 1/1/2026' (lasalletown.com/DocumentCenter/View/1815/2026-Uniform-Fee-Schedule), a 12-page Document Center PDF not linked from the Building Permits page, the Development Fees page, or ProCode's La Salle resource page — which is why every prior chase in this file (2026-07-06, 2026-07-23, and earlier same-day 2026-08-02) missed it. Fetched and read in full directly. Its 'BUILDING PERMIT FEES' section (based on 'APPENDIX L 2018 IRC') gives the full valuation-tier base-fee table and applies 'Non-Residential Construction — 65% of Permit fee' plus a '$50.00' Commercial 'Administration Fee' on top. The schedule does not itemize tenant finish/remodel separately from new commercial construction — both fall under the single 'Non-Residential Construction' category, consistent with this file's own documented finding that La Salle runs one unified fee method across project types (no TI-specific multiplier or discount is published; applying the same formula as new commercial construction is the most defensible reading of the schedule as published, not an assumption of a distinct unpublished TI rate). No plan-review turnaround/day-count figures appear anywhere in this 12-page document — it resolves only the fee gap, not the timeline gap (see reviewTimelineNote). Contact ProCode (970-305-3161) or Town Hall (970-284-6931) to confirm project-specific valuation classification. |
| Construction Use Tax | 2% of total material cost | Applies to TI material cost the same as any other permitted work in La Salle.

The Town's 2026 Uniform Fee Schedule (Document Center View/1815, effective 1/1/2026, found 2026-08-02) additionally specifies the valuation basis used to compute this 2% tax: 50% of the calculated project cost (via provided labor+material cost or the ICC BVD Data table) or the provided material cost, whichever is greater. |
