When do I need a permit?
Per the currently adopted codes, any owner or authorized agent who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish, or change the occupancy of a building or structure, or to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical or plumbing system, the installation of which is regulated by code, or to cause any such work to be done, shall first make application to the building official and obtain required permit.
Work which may be exempt from the currently adopted building codes may not be exempt from Aspen’s jurisdiction of local requirements and land use codes. Please call the Building Department at (970) 920-5090 and ask. We’re happy to help.
