Also Attending:Building Inspector Hackett,Light &Power Supt.Sweetland.
Superintendent Sweetland discussed with the Committee the changes in the
electrical inspection laws of the State of Colorado which will necessitate
the obtaining of a qualified state electrical inspector.Mr.Sweetland
informed the Committee that the State Electrical Board would qualify the
Town Building Inspector upon his passage of the Journeymen’s Electrical
Examination as a state inspector.He recommended that when the Building
Inspector was qualified,that he not only continue the electrical inspections
within the corporate limits of the Town,but also make all electrical in
spections within the area serviced by the Light &Power Department.After
further discussion,the Committee said that they would recommend this pro
cedure be followed and that they would authorize payment of all expenses
incurred by the Building Inspector in taking the necessary examinations to
become qualified as a state electrical inspector.
The Building Inspector called to the Committee’s attention the necessity
of an ordinance being prepared to control septic tanks and private sewage
disposal systems within the Town of Estes Park,as the County had excluded
from their jurisdiction all corporate towns within Larimer County.The
Building Inspector went over the Larimer County and Jefferson County regu
lations that govern such installations,and it was decided that certain
parts of these regulations were not applicable to the conditions existing
within the Town of Estes Park.The Committee directed the Building Inspector
to prepare an ordinance for submission to the attorney and Board of Trustees
based on the County regulations incorporating changes as discussed for con
s iderat ion.
The jurisdictional authority for inspection and water sampling in swimming
pools within the corporate limits was discussed,and the Committee decided
to let the County continue with this service,as they have expressed a
willingness to do so,with the understanding if enforcement measures were
needed they could use the Town’s health officer.
The Building Inspector requested permission from the Committee topoint Mr.
George Lambert as a deputy building inspector with the authority to write
septic tank permits and make inspections within the corporate limits of the
Town of Estes Park.This request was so granted by the Committee.
The Building Inspector requested a raise of salary,which the Committee will
take under immediate advisement and will make recommendations at the next
Board of Trustees meeting.
