Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger Permit in Milliken, Colorado

Milliken publishes no distinct EV-charger permit type, fee, or ordinance page. Colorado HB24-1173 (2024) requires counties with population 20,000+ and municipalities with population 10,000+ to adopt a streamlined EV-charging permit process by December 31, 2025; Milliken's population (approx. 8,400 at the 2020 Census, an estimated 9,400-9,700 in 2026) sits below the 10,000-population municipal threshold, so the Town is not confirmed to be legally required to have adopted a standalone EV-charging ordinance. A new circuit, outlet, or panel/service upgrade to serve an EV charger falls under the Town's standard 'Electrical Service Change' Counter Permit (24-72 hour approval) per the Building Application Process page.

Tips

  • There is no Milliken-specific 'EV charger permit' — a new circuit or outlet for EV charging falls under the standard 'Electrical Service Change' Counter Permit.
  • Colorado HB24-1173 required larger jurisdictions (counties 20,000+, municipalities 10,000+ population) to adopt a streamlined EV-charging permit ordinance by December 31, 2025; Milliken's population is estimated just under the 10,000 municipal threshold, so it is not confirmed to be covered by that mandate.
  • Confirm current requirements with the Building Department/SAFEbuilt before applying, since Milliken bills its base electrical fee 'According to State Regulations' for some categories.
