Fire Code General Information

The Codes and Planning Section is overseen by the Fire Marshal. This section is a primary service function of the Fire Services Division and the goal of Fire Codes and Planning is to reduce loss of life and injury and loss of property.

 

This goal is accomplished through:

  • fire code inspections
  • issuance of permits
  • plan review
  • life safety system testing
  • hazardous materials tracking and code enforcement
  • education programs
  • special event planning
  • fire investigations
  • research
  • review
  • recommending changes to and writing local amendments to the International Fire Code (IFC)

 

This group works closely with Development Services and the Chief Building Official to make sure all new construction complies with the IFC.

  • The City of Longmont is currently utilizing the 2021 International Fire Code for regulating all fire hazards and building construction within the city limits.
  • This fire code is adopted as published with local amendments (reference Longmont Municipal Ordinance O-2021-66).
  • A true certified copy of the 2021 International Fire Code and local amendments are available for review at the city clerks office located at 350 Kimbark St., Longmont.

 

In order to provide better customer service, Longmont Fire Services has started using the automated inspection request line operated by the City of Longmont Building Inspection. You will need to schedule your inspections online.
