Construction may not begin until such approval is obtained.

The plans must be submitted to the Denver Division of Building Inspection at 201 West Colfax Avenue - the phone number is 720-865-2832. Plans can be submitted Monday-Friday from 8:30am-10:45am and 1:30pm-3:30pm.

Please call them for details of the requirements and the materials you need to submit in order to expedite the review process. A Restaurant guide for plan review needs to be completed and submitted with construction plans. The Community and Planning Department has a guide titled Common Submittal Problems that is helpful when submitting construction plans.

Following plan approval, your facility will be periodically inspected by the Denver Division of Building Inspection to ensure that construction meets the conditions of the approval.

Would you like someone to check out your proposed facility before you buy or lease it? A courtesy walk through inspection can be done on any existing facility that may undergo remodeling or needs code updating. This inspection is usually done prior to any plan submittal and can be arranged through the Building Department 720-865-2832.
