Most City and County of Denver offices will be closed Monday for the Indigenous Peoples' Day holiday. Solid waste collection services will not be affected; set carts out on your regular schedule.
Since early 2022, Denver has collected a modest, voluntary contribution with building permit fees to fund youth-focused construction careers and talent development efforts. Permit customers have the option to provide a contribution of $25 for residential permits and $200 for commercial permits. Permit customers who do not wish to make a contribution have the option to opt out.
The contribution fund is expanding education opportunities for youth interested in or curious about construction careers. It supports expanded industry-based curricula, paid internships and career exposure for Denver youth, and work-based learning/apprenticeship pathways into the construction industry.
