| SAFEbuilt/Town Building Permit fee (base, valuation-based) + zoning-compliance surcharge | $50.00 zoning-compliance surcharge (residential applications only) is a confirmed flat figure; the underlying valuation-based base fee itself is not a Town-published number — verified-negative: it follows Chapter 18's adopted 2024 IBC fee schedule by reference, not a separately republished Town dollar table | CONFIRMED 2026-07-23, live-quoted from Appendix A - Fee Schedule (Municode Library, Code of Ordinances Supp. 2, updated 2026-02-17): 'Sec. 16-3-10 | Building Permit | Per Chapter 18 + $50.00 to determine compliance with zoning applied to residential applications ONLY.' A live full-text search of the entire current Code of Ordinances for 'Table 1-A fee valuation' returned zero hits, confirming (verified-negative) that no separate town-specific valuation table is published; the base fee is calculated per the adopted 2024 IBC's own fee schedule, incorporated by reference through Chapter 18 rather than independently republished. |
| Investigation fee (work commenced without a permit) | 100% of the original building permit fee, in addition to the required permit fees | CONFIRMED 2026-07-23, live-quoted from Sec. 18-10-30 'Amendments' (Chapter 18, Article X — Residential Code): 'necessary permits shall be subject to a fee established by the Town. The fee shall be equal to 100% of the original building fee in addition to the required permit fees.' Sec. 18-2-30 (Article II — Building Code) carries the same amendment for commercial/general building scope. |
| Town of Platteville development-impact fees (Police, Public Facilities, Parks, Transportation, Storm Drainage, Schools, PGFPD) | Police Facilities $759.00/dwelling unit ($0.54/sq ft nonresidential); Public Facilities $2,096.00/dwelling unit ($1.50/sq ft); Parks $1,538.00/dwelling unit ($0.00/sq ft nonresidential); Transportation $2,860.00/dwelling unit ($2.50/sq ft); Storm Drainage $1,601.00/unit ($1.14/sq ft); Schools $1,054.20/unit (single-family) or $272.00/unit (multi-family), forwarded to Weld County School District RE-1; PGFPD Impact Fee 2.266/dwelling unit residential (1.65 SB nonresidential) | CONFIRMED 2026-07-23, live-quoted verbatim from Appendix A - Fee Schedule, 'Development Impact Fees' subsection (cross-referencing Chapter 4-9): 'Collected by Town of Platteville with payment of building permit, but forwarded in full to Weld County School District RE-1 & PGFPD' for the Schools line. These are the 'TOTAL Platteville Fees' side of the combined Building Permit Application's fee block (separate from the SAFEbuilt-administered code-review fee stream above); water/sewer tap, meter, and system-investment charges (also part of 'TOTAL Platteville Fees') are separately confirmed as Utilities-section line items in Appendix A but are use-driven (meter size, EQR) rather than flat per-permit fees and are not restated here. |

Electrical Permit
VerifiedRequired for electrical installation, alteration, or repair in Platteville. Platteville does not run its own local electrician licensing program; the Town instead performs contemporaneous review of each electrician's Colorado State Electrical Board (DORA) license per CRS 12-23-116, as its own published guidelines describe. Separately, the Town DOES codify its own technical electrical code: Chapter 18, Article V, Sec. 18-5-10 adopts the National Electrical Code, 2023 Edition (confirmed live 2026-07-23), which governs installation standards independent of the DORA licensing question.
Verified 2026-07-23 · Source
Requirements
- Electrician's name and Colorado DORA electrical/contractor license number must be listed on the permit application before issuance; if not listed at application, it must be listed before the permit is processed
- Town verifies the listed electrician's license is active via the Colorado DORA online license lookup before processing; permit will not be processed until verified
- If the electrician performing/overseeing work changes during construction, the applicant must notify the Town of the new electrician's name and license number, triggering a new verification
- Building inspector may, at their discretion, verify the identity of the electrician at any relevant inspection and may fail the inspection if identity/licensure cannot be verified

| SAFEbuilt electrical permit fee | No distinct electrical-permit dollar figure is separately published — verified-negative, confirmed 2026-07-23 | Listed as a distinct line item ('Electrical') on the combined Building Permit Application fee block, separate from the general building permit fee, but Appendix A - Fee Schedule (live-checked 2026-07-23, Municode Library) carries no separate 'Electrical Permit' dollar entry — only the general 'Building Permit: Per Chapter 18 + $50.00' line and the solar-specific Resolution 2011-26 cap. A live full-text search of the entire current Code of Ordinances for a Table-1-A-style valuation schedule returned zero hits. This confirms (does not merely infer) that the electrical scope is billed under the same Chapter-18/adopted-IBC-referenced fee structure as the base building permit, with no separately codified electrical-only rate. |
Plumbing Permit
VerifiedRequired for plumbing installation, alteration, or repair in Platteville. Like electrical, Platteville does not run its own local plumber licensing program; the Town performs contemporaneous review of each plumber's Colorado State Plumbing Board (DORA) license per CRS 12-155-120(1) and HB19-1086.

Appendix A - Fee Schedule (live-checked 2026-07-23) also carries no separate plumbing dollar entry; a live full-text search of the entire current Code of Ordinances found no separate plumbing valuation table.

Re-Roof Permit
VerifiedRequired for residential re-roofing in Platteville, reviewed under the 2024 IRC as adopted per the Town's dedicated Residential Re-roofing guide.
Verified 2026-07-06 · Source
Requirements
- Roof replacement generally requires removal of existing layers down to the roof deck where the existing covering is water-soaked/deteriorated, is wood shake/slate/clay/cement/asbestos-cement tile, or already has two or more layers (2024 IRC R908.3)
- No more than two layers of roofing are allowed upon completion
- Ice and water shield is required on all roofs per the guide's Wind/Weather Resistance section; impact-resistant shingles are explicitly NOT required in Platteville (the guide notes this requirement applies only in the Town of Timnath, a different jurisdiction)
- Asphalt shingles tested to ASTM D 7158, meeting Table R905.2.4.1(1) classification for an ultimate design wind speed of 115 mph

Rooftop Solar / Photovoltaic Permit
VerifiedRequired for solar panel installation or replacement in Platteville. SAFEbuilt's Photovoltaic System Submittal Requirements document specifies structural and electrical plan requirements; the code-edition citation in this specific PDF is stale (2021) relative to the Town's current 2024 IBC/IRC/IECC and 2023 NEC as codified in Chapter 18 (CONFIRMED live 2026-07-23 directly from the Town's own ordinance text, not merely inferred from the guide series — see codesAdopted), and is flagged as such rather than treated as governing.
Verified 2026-07-23 · Source
Requirements
- Permit application (emailed to Town) or online application filled out completely; valuation based on total cost to customer (contract price), including material and labor
- Plan review required for each building on a property; separate permits may be required per address
- Structural engineer's stamped letter required for roof-mounted systems, addressing added weight and wind load, designed to a minimum ground snow load of 30 psf, wind speed 115 mph Vult, wind exposure C, and Seismic Design Category B
- Ground-mounted systems require an engineer-stamped letter for support and wind load, using the same design criteria (30 psf ground snow load, 115 mph Vult, exposure C, seismic category B)
- Four-line electrical diagram, equipment specifications (ampacity/volts/wattage), wire-size and disconnect/fuse calculations, and cut sheets with current certifications required

| Building Permit for Solar Installation (Town-specific cap, Resolution 2011-26) | $500.00 maximum for residential installation; $1,000.00 maximum for commercial installation | CONFIRMED 2026-07-23 directly from a Town-specific source: Appendix A - Fee Schedule (Municode Library, live), BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION section, quotes verbatim: 'Resolution 2011-26 | Building Permit for Solar Installation | $500.00 maximum for residential installation, $1,000.00 maximum for commercial installation.' This independently corroborates (via Platteville's own adopted Resolution 2011-26) the figures previously sourced only indirectly from the statewide C.R.S. § 24-48.5-113 cap and the Larimer County/Town of Larkspur comparison tables below — those statewide sources remain useful for the underlying valuation-based FORMULA, but the $500/$1,000 CAP itself is now a direct Town citation, not an inference. |
| SAFEbuilt electrical/building permit fee (solar scope, valuation-based formula below the $500/$1,000 cap) | Statewide electrical component follows C.R.S. § 12-23-117: base fee ~$100-$120 for job valuation up to $2,000, plus roughly $10-$11.50 per $1,000 of valuation above that, scalable up to 1.15x by the local government | Colorado electrical inspections are a matter of statewide concern under C.R.S. § 12-23-117 — no local government, including Platteville, may charge more than 1.15x the DORA State Electrical Board's own fee schedule for the electrical scope, or impose any other electrical fee or charge. 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 formula for whatever SAFEbuilt ultimately invoices, subject to Platteville's own $500/$1,000 Resolution 2011-26 cap above. |
Demolition Permit
VerifiedVERIFIED-NEGATIVE, confirmed 2026-07-23: Platteville has no dedicated demolition permit type. Not separately documented on the Town's SAFEbuilt Permits page or in any of the Town's published SAFEbuilt guide series; the Building Permit Application form's 'Type of Improvement' checklist does not include a distinct demolition category (it lists New Building/Structure, Addition, Accessory Structure, Remodel/Finish, Repair/Replacement, Mobile Structure, Sprinkler System, Fence, Water Heater, HVAC, and Other). This was further confirmed 2026-07-23 by a live full-text search of the Town's ENTIRE current Code of Ordinances (Municode Library, Code of Ordinances Supp. 2, updated 2026-02-17, codified through Ordinance No. 2025-851, Dec. 16, 2025) — searching 'demolition permit' across the whole live code returns only 2 hits, both in Chapter 7 (Health, Sanitation and Animals) listing an abandoned/partially-demolished structure as a NUISANCE condition (Sec. 7-1-30/7-1-40), not a permit requirement. Zero hits appear in Chapter 18 (Building Regulations) or Appendix A (Fee Schedule). A demolition project in Platteville would be captured under the standard Building Permit Application's 'Other' checkbox (or possibly under Chapter 18's adopted International Existing Building Code, which governs alteration/demolition of existing structures generically, without a Town-specific standalone demolition-permit process).

Deck, Patio Cover & Carport Permit

Verified 2026-07-06 · Source
Requirements
- Uncovered decks: site plan, house-attachment cross-section detail (ledger fastener spacing per Table R507.9.1.3(2)), guardrail/stair/handrail detail (guardrail required where deck floor exceeds 30 inches above grade), footing detail, and a cross-section deck plan showing footing/column/beam/joist dimensions
- Patio covers/carports: site plan, house-and-post attachment detail, footing detail, pergola information (if applicable), and a cross-section patio-cover plan; patio covers are limited to 12 feet in height maximum
- Carports within 5 feet of a property line must have that side enclosed with a solid 1-hour fire-rated wall, but at least 2 sides of a carport must remain open per Building Code; Zoning Approval is required for this scenario
- All lumber in contact with ground/concrete must be treated or rated for that use; all screws/nails hot-dipped galvanized or stainless steel
- Pergolas are typically not required to be designed for roof/snow load transfer (no permit required in some jurisdictions) — applicant must check with Platteville specifically on whether a permit is required for pergola-type structures

Accessory Structure Permit (Detached Garage, Shed, Pole Barn) & Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)
VerifiedPlatteville's published SAFEbuilt guide series covers Accessory Structures (garages, sheds) and Pole Barns generically under the 2024 IRC. RESOLVED 2026-07-23: Platteville DOES have a dedicated Accessory Dwelling Unit zoning framework — Chapter 16 (Zoning), Article III, Sec. 16-3-20 'Accessory Dwelling Units,' confirmed live via the Town's Code of Ordinances (Municode Library, Supp. 2, updated 2026-02-17, codified through Ordinance No. 2025-851, Dec. 16, 2025). Live-quoted: each ADU 'shall comply with the principal structure standards, except that each ADU shall be subordinate to and no larger than seventy-five percent (75%) of the square feet [of the principal dwelling unit]'; and 'no portion of a structure containing an ADU may have ownership different from the ownership of the principal dwelling unit' (an ADU cannot be sold or subdivided off from the primary residence). Sec. 16-2-40 'Agricultural/Holding (A-H) District' further confirms an 'Agricultural accessory dwelling unit/structure, limited to nine hundred (900) square feet per acre of land' as a permitted use in that zoning district specifically. A habitable ADU is therefore permitted by right in at least some Platteville zoning districts (subject to the 75%-of-principal-structure size cap and single-ownership rule), but which OTHER zoning districts (beyond A-H) allow ADUs, and any district-specific size/setback variations, were not independently enumerated in this pass — building-permit processing for an ADU is expected to follow the same combined Building Permit Application / SAFEbuilt review path as any other accessory structure or addition, under the 2024 IRC.
Verified 2026-07-23 · Source
Requirements
- Site plan showing setback compliance (structures may not be built over setback lines, easements, or property lines); check with the zoning department for size/location restrictions specific to accessory structures
- Construction details: foundation detail (Foundation Detail A or B per the guide), framing, roof covering/sheathing, insulation values, and wall/floor framing dimensions
- Floor plan showing bracing, whether the space is heated or unheated (heated spaces must check local energy code requirements for conditioned accessory structures), door/window header sizes, and garage door opening dimensions
- A survey from a registered land surveyor required if the project is in a protected area; an as-built survey required if proposed within 12 inches of a required minimum setback
- For a habitable ADU specifically: Sec. 16-3-20 (Chapter 16 — Zoning) requires the ADU be no larger than 75% of the principal dwelling unit's square footage, and that the property retain single ownership across the principal dwelling and the ADU (no separate sale/subdivision) — confirmed 2026-07-23 via the Town's live Code of Ordinances
- In the Agricultural/Holding (A-H) zoning district specifically, an agricultural ADU/structure is capped at 900 square feet per acre of land (Sec. 16-2-40) — other zoning districts' ADU allowances were not individually enumerated in this pass; confirm the applicable district's specific rule with Planning and Zoning

EV Charger / EVSE Permit
VerifiedPlatteville has no EV-charger-specific permit type or fee line. An EV charger (EVSE) circuit is electrical work and follows the Town's general Electrical Permit path: filed on the combined Building Permit Application's Electrician field, with the Town performing contemporaneous verification of the installing electrician's Colorado State Electrical Board (DORA) license per CRS 12-23-116, and billed under the Electrical line item on the SAFEbuilt-administered fee block. Appendix A of the Municipal Code IS now confirmed live and publicly reachable (2026-07-23, via the Browser pane against Municode Library) and carries no EV-charger-specific or standalone electrical-only dollar line — a verified-negative that Platteville does not price EV-charger electrical work separately. Colorado's HB24-1173, which mandates EV-charger permit checklists and a 3-business-day decision timeline, only applies to municipalities with 10,000+ residents; Platteville's population (roughly 3,000) is below that threshold, so the statewide mandate does not currently bind the Town. The technical NEC edition governing EVSE circuit installation is now confirmed: 2023 NEC (Chapter 18, Article V, Sec. 18-5-10).
