Junk for you is treasure for me.  Treasure might also be a slippery slope to trash. The steady deterioration of a property tends to attract elements that are undesirable for everyone.  Our Ordinance is clear. You can have all the treasure you want as long as it is fenced out of public view.

If you feel that your property value, or ability to sell, is adversely affected by your neighbors’ treasure, contact the Building Department at 689-5640.

You’re off and running with your DIY project, looking to become a home improvement hero and saving some cash in the process.

Zoning and Building Codes are those rules and regulations that govern everything from fence height to the clearance in front of a toilet. If you don’t comply with Building and Zoning Codes, you may be on the hook for fines and an expensive tear-out and redo of your project.

Heck, you say. Nobody is going to notice a little bathroom renovation going on in the back of your house. That may be true, but the real intent of Building Codes is to make sure your house is safe and healthy. Not conforming with codes could cost you when you decide to sell your home—a sharp-eyed home inspector undoubtedly will spot violations that shrink your asking price or tank a potential sale altogether.

Your Building Department is more than happy to answer your questions and assist you in making your remodeling dreams an affordable and safe reality.

The Teller County Board of Health has informed the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) that Teller County will be moving to “Blue” under the state’s newly-released COVID-19 Dial effective February 18, 2021. Teller County Public Health Director Martha Hubbard has sent a letter to CDPHE informing the State of the change in the COVID-19 risk level in Teller County. 

Teller County Commissioner Chairman Bob Campbell, speaking on behalf of the Teller County Commissioners, said the move to Blue is another step towards restoring the freedoms that all Teller County residents should enjoy. “Teller County residents should be applauded for their efforts to reduce the spread of the virus. Kudos to Teller County Public Health volunteers, staff and our local vaccination partners; we have vaccinated nearly 50% of our over-70 population with the first dose”, said Campbell. 

As of today, the incidence rates in Teller County are as follows: 

Seven-day cumulative incidence rate: 59/100,000 people 

Percent positivity: 3.7% 

Number of Vaccines Administered: First Dose: 3481 Second Dose: 1071 

These incident rates move Teller County into the COVID-19 Dial Level Blue, effective Thursday, February 18 at 9:00 A.M. Relaxed restrictions going into effect include, but are not limited to, the following: 

• • Restaurants may operate at 50% of posted occupancy indoors. 
• • Both indoor and outdoor events can apply for local site variances to Teller County Board of Health. 
• • Last Call for alcohol service is moved to 12 a.m. 
• • Gyms may operate at 50% occupancy. 
• • Indoor events may operate at 50% of posted occupancy not to exceed 225 people. 
• • Outdoor events may operate at 50% of posted occupancy not to exceed 250 people. 
• • Casinos may operate at 50% of the posted occupancy limit not to exceed 175-225 people per room indoors. 

Teller County is encouraging all residents and businesses to continue to take personal responsibility for their own health and help fight the spread of COVID-19 in our community and remind the general public that all public health orders remain in effect. Those residents interested in receiving vaccination information please see www.tellercovid.com which links to the interactive vaccination interest form.
