Permit process note
The Town's Residential Building Application lists "New Building Permit - Single Family Residence," "Garage," "Foundation for Manufactured Home," "Addition to existing Single Family Home," "Barn or storage shed," and "Repair or Alteration" as permit application types; roofing/re-roofing is not separately named and would fall under the general "Repair or Alteration" category. The application requires "Two (2) complete sets of building plans, stamped by a Colorado-licensed engineer" and "Two (2) documented surveys of the property," a copy of the recorded Warranty Deed, and a "Plan check fee of $200.00 (non-refundable)... separate from the actual building permit fee." The application notice states: "Separate permits are required for electrical, plumbing, heating ventilating or air conditioning."
Sales & use tax
9.40% combined inside the Town of Marble, and the composition is unusual in both directions - one district reaches Marble from two counties away while the countys own transit authority expressly does not reach it at all. The components are the Colorado state rate of 2.9%, Gunnison County at 1%, the Carbondale and Rural Fire Protection District at 1.50%, and the Town of Marble at 4%. THE FIRE DISTRICT IS THE PIECE THAT LOOKS WRONG AND IS RIGHT: Carbondale is in Garfield County, but the district boundary in the state rate tables reads "Carbondale city limits including small surrounding areas of Garfield and Pitkin counties and the Marble area of Gunnison county," so Marble is named into it. THE PIECE THAT LOOKS RIGHT AND IS WRONG IS THE TRANSIT AUTHORITY: the Gunnison Valley Regional Transportation Authority levies 1% across the county, but its boundary is given as "Gunnison County except the towns of Marble, Ohio City, Pitkin, and Somerset." Marble is named out of it, so that 1% is not part of the rate here and adding it would overstate the total by a full point. Neither the Town of Marble nor Gunnison County levies a use tax, so only the states own 2.9% use tax reaches materials brought in without sales tax already paid.
