Currently, the City of Wheat Ridge provides next day inspections for all permit types. Inspection requests are submitted online and are currently required to be submitted before midnight for inspections to occur the following business day.
Starting on October 2, 2023, requests must be submitted by 4 p.m. for next day inspections.
For example, inspections requested for Tuesday, October 3 must be submitted by 4 p.m. on Monday, October 2. Inspections for Mondays must be submitted by 4 p.m. on Fridays. Inspections requested after 4 p.m. will not be on the next day’s inspection list. Same day inspections are subject to a fee of $120 and are not guaranteed based on inspector availability.
We encourage all permit holders to begin adopting this shift to prepare for the October 2 change. This change will ensure appropriate staffing to accommodate all next day inspection requests. We appreciate your assistance in making this change as seamless as possible.
