On January 18, 2022, the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners adopted proposed regulations updates regarding Wildfire (Case No. 21-128592AM). The changes are effective immediately. The changes impact how Building Permits are processed in unincorporated portions of the County.

1) Proof of fire protection will be required for all new building permits.
2) Any building permits for any new structure (including detached garages), the replacement of an existing structure, or any addition to a structure, above 6400 feet in elevation will require a defensible space permit.
