City of Cherry Hills Village

Required for a wide range of construction regulated by the adopted building codes; the city provides detailed requirement packets for new construction and major additions.

Building code

Cherry Hills Village states it will adopt the 2024 I-Codes at the beginning of 2026; applicants should confirm whether the current permit is reviewed under the prior package or the 2024 package depending on filing date.

Permit validity

Public major-construction guidance states extension fees apply if work is not completed to final within the permit period; the general public pages reviewed did not clearly publish the baseline expiration rule.

Contractor requirements

Public-facing pages reviewed did not clearly publish a standalone Cherry Hills Village contractor licensing program; verify directly with the Building Division before permit issuance.
