• Jurisdiction: Colorado
• Title 30: Government
• Art.: County Planning and Building Codes

Text

(1) The board of
county commissioners of any county which enacts a building code under the
authority of this part 2 may provide for a board of review of three or five members
and for the manner of appointment of such members. Members of the board shall
be experienced in building construction. The board of county commissioners may
fix per diem compensation and terms for the members of such boards of review,
which terms shall be of such length and so arranged that the terms of at least one
member will expire each year. Any member of the board of review may be removed
for cause by the board of county commissioners upon written charges and after a
public hearing. Vacancies shall be filled for the unexpired term in the same manner
as in the case of original appointments. The board of county commissioners shall
provide and specify in its building code or other resolution general rules to govern
the organization, procedure, and jurisdiction of said board of review, which rules
shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this part 2, and the board of review
may adopt supplemental rules of procedure not inconsistent with this part 2 or such
general rules.

(2) Any building code adopted by the board of county commissioners may
provide that the board of review, in appropriate cases and subject to appropriate
principles, standards, rules, conditions, and safeguards set forth in the building
code, may make special exceptions to the terms of the building code in harmony
with their general purpose and intent. The board of county commissioners also may
authorize the board of review to formulate suggested amendments to the building
code for the consideration of the board of county commissioners. In addition, the
board of review may adopt substantive rules and regulations based on the
provisions of the building code adopted by the board of county commissioners. In no
case, however, shall these rules become effective unless a public hearing thereon
has been conducted by the board of review. Notice of the hearing, stating its time
and place and where the text of the proposed substantive rules and regulations
may be inspected, shall be given in the same manner as provided in the initial
adoption of the code.
