Reduced staffing week of March 1-5

During the week of March 1-5, Westminster Building Division staff will be attending the Colorado Chapter Educational Institute resulting in minimum staffing levels during the week. 

We ask you to take staffing levels into consideration and keep inspection requests to a minimum during this time period, as we will be at minimum staff level. Additionally, the residential walk-through plan review will not be available during this week.

Inspections will be made on a priority basis. Please feel free to call the office at 303-658-2075 if arrangements need to be made for an emergency.
