City of Cherry Hills Village
Plumber Cherry Hills Village CO
Cherry Hills Village permits online, and its sanitation district is not the same thing as the city. Some sewer cuts are also inspected by Englewood. A few subdivisions are the exception.
City permits
The city processes permits in an online portal. First-time registration can take up to one business day to approve. Plumbing and HVAC can ride on the main building permit when they are part of that scope. Otherwise they need their own permit. Additions may need a right-of-way construction access permit. Public Works is 303-783-2744. Additions on homes that already have fire sprinklers must extend that protection, with a South Metro Fire Rescue permit. Homes without sprinklers may need a fire-flow analysis. That is a water-supply question for the district, not a faucet repair.
Sanitation district
Cherry Hills Village Sanitation District requires a sewer tap permit for a new property or a property leaving a septic tank, and an inspection. A demolition cut-off needs a video of the service line, paint and flags on the surface, and a cut at the property line or the main unless the district approves another point. Some new taps are also inspected by the City of Englewood. Buell Mansion and Covington do not require Englewood's inspection. The district says its regulations win if a summary conflicts. Call the district about whether a residential repair needs a permit. Do not treat this as Aurora Water.
Questions to settle first
Does a Cherry Hills sewer repair involve Englewood?
Sometimes. The sanitation district says inspection of a new tap or a change is by the district and by the City of Englewood, except Buell Mansion and Covington. A cut-off for demolition needs a video first. Ask the district which inspection your block uses before you schedule one crew.
Is the sanitation district the city building department?
No. The city runs the online building portal and may require a right-of-way permit through Public Works at 303-783-2744. The district permits taps and some repairs. You can need both. Aurora's wastewater page is a third agency and the wrong one.
Do I need a fire-flow study to add a bathroom?
You might. The city says additions to homes without sprinklers submit a fire-flow analysis to South Metro Fire Rescue, and additions to homes with sprinklers must extend that system. That can force a water-main or meter conversation with the district. Ask before you frame.
A slow drain is drain cleaning until a camera shows a broken sewer line. A tank swap is water heater replacement. Confirm the permit office and the utility for this address before the work is closed up.
