Building Permits

Obtain a Building Permit:

1. Building permit applications and Instructions are available below or at City Hall.
2. Submit the completed Building Permit Application Form, required plans, building guides, other requested documents and permit fees in person at Victor City Hall, 500 W. Victor Ave., Victor, CO.
3. Construction may not commence until the building permit has been issued and the permit posted on the building/property. Commencement of work prior to acquiring a required building permit may result in costly penalties.
4. Inspection instructions are located on the Inspection Card/Permit issued to the applicant.
5. Permits become null and void if no inspections occur for a period of one year (365 days).
6. After the building passes the Final Inspection, if applicable, the Building Official will issue a Certificate of Occupancy.
7. Changes to an existing building may or may not require a building permit. It is your responsibility to determine the need for a Building Permit prior to commencing work on the project.
8. A re-inspection fee may be assessed when inspections are requested prior to the work being ready, if the permit card is not posted, if the approved plans are not available on the job site, or when access is not provided for the inspector. No further inspections will be made until the re-inspection fee is paid.
9. Inspections are made at various stages of the building project. If you have questions regarding the necessity of inspections at particular stages, please contact the building department.
