Roofing in Naturita, Colorado

The Development Application form's permit-fee list references "1997 U.M.C." (Uniform Mechanical Code) for the mechanical permit fee table, and its insulation requirement states installations "Must comply with prescriptive energy code requirements or 1997 Model Energy Codes." The form is undated and may not reflect the Town's current adopted edition (if any has since superseded it); no more recent adopted-code statement was found on the Town's site.

The Town's "Development Application" form (posted as BUILDINGPERMIT.pdf) is used for building/construction projects and lists an "Application Fee" of $35.00 plus an "Inspection Fee ($40 per inspection)," a Use Tax collected "on building materials purchased outside the town and/or county at the following rates: Montrose County 1%, Naturita 3%," with a note that "Use tax must be received prior to issue of Certificate of Occupancy." Minimum requirements for plan review/building permit application state the application must include "Two complete sets of plans including wetseal," a plot plan, and a "Typical section view" showing (among other elements) "Roofing material," "Pitch of roof," and "Roof ventilation design." Permit fees required include a "Building permit fee - according to valuation," "Plan review fee $50.00 per hour," with separate State Inspectors listed for plumbing and electrical permits.

The Town's inspection checklist ("Minimum Foundation Standards / Requirements for Inspections") lists, under the Framing inspection stage: "Has the electrical rough-in been approved by the State Inspector? Has the plumbing rough-in been approved by the State Inspector? Has the access permit been approved by the County or State? Is the roofing complete or at least dried in? Are the exterior doors and windows installed? Are the interior stairs roughed-in?" Final inspection requires State Electrical and Plumbing Inspector approval and confirmation "the house completed according to the building permit plans."
