Yes — a permit is required to replace a roof in Fairplay, CO, issued by Town of Fairplay - Building Department. The Town's Permitting page (fairplayco.us/181/Permitting) defines three permit tracks: "Easy permits are for small projects that are primarily a like-for-like replacement of an item as part of building lifetime maintenance"; "Building permits are for the alteration, demolition, construction, enlargement, movement, repair, removal, or replacement of any building or structure"; and "Right-of-Way/Excavation Permits are issued by the Public Works Department for any work to be completed within the right-of-way areas of the town or when connecting to town water or sewer lines." The page states explicitly: "Any items that are not in the list above for an Easy Permit... require a building permit. This includes reroofing, decks, and solar power generation equipment" — so a reroof requires a building permit. Fees are calculated on form submission rather than published as a flat schedule. The Building page (fairplayco.us/177/Building) states "The Building Department issues permits, performs reviews of construction-related plans, and inspects all structures located within the corporate limits of the Town of Fairplay," and confirms the CAA services agreement dating to 2022. A "Building Guide - Reroof" document is referenced as a supporting submittal document on the Building page. Fairplay also maintains a Certificate of Appropriateness process (a form is published on the Forms page) for a historic district, which may apply to visible roof work on contributing structures; confirm the district boundary and criteria with the Building Department.
