Town of Oak Creek (Routt County Regional Building Department)

Adopted code

The Town of Oak Creek, Routt County, does not run its own building department. The Town's own site lists "Routt County Building Dept" as a Resources link, and the Routt County site states plainly: "Routt County Regional Building Department provides Building Department services for the Town of Oak Creek Colorado for all Residential and Commercial Buildings and Structures," covering Building, Electrical, Mechanical, Gas, Plumbing, Deconstruction, Solar, Sign, Pool/Spa/Hot Tub, and Grade and Fill permits. Oak Creek has its own building code ordinance adopting the county's code editions.

Permit process note
The Town of Oak Creek's own website (townofoakcreek.colorado.gov) has no Building Department page of its own; its "Resources" navigation menu links out to "Routt County Building Dept." The Routt County Regional Building Department's Town of Oak Creek page states: "Routt County Regional Building Department provides Building Department services for the Town of Oak Creek Colorado for all Residential and Commercial Buildings and Structures," and lists a "Town of Oak Creek Building Code Ordinance ICC 2021 Editions" and a "Town of Oak Creek Permit Application Plan Review Processes and Time-Frames" document among its linked forms. All permit applications for Oak Creek go through the county's process (CityView portal, per Routt County's building services description), with plan review and inspections performed by county staff. A "Roofing Permit- Required Inspection and Fee Policy" document and a "Residential Commercial Building Roofing and Window Door Replacement Permit Fee Policy" are both published on the county Building Codes & Policies page and list a maximum $300 residential / $500 commercial roof-replacement permit fee plus a $25 plan review fee, indicating roof replacement is permitted work under the county's fee schedule; this office could not read the full text of those two scanned/image PDFs to quote exemption language directly, so roofing_permit_required is not asserted as a boolean here — see risk note. The county's Building Codes & Policies page also references a "Contractor Registration & Certification" section, but no explicit registration criteria applicable to Oak Creek were found on the pages reviewed.
Adopted code
Routt County (which administers building permitting for Oak Creek) states it "adopted the 2021 ICC Series effective January 1, 2024," including the IBC, IRC, IECC, IEBC, IFGC, IPC, IMC, and IPMC, plus portions of the 2021 IWUIC and the Colorado Model State Electric and Solar Ready Code. The county's Town of Oak Creek permitting page separately lists a "Town of Oak Creek Building Code Ordinance ICC 2021 Editions" as a town-specific adopting ordinance.
