or offers to undertake for another the planning, laying out, supervising and
installing or the making of additions, alterations and repairs in the installation
of wiring apparatus and equipment for electrical light, heat and power. A registered

installation shall not be classified as an electrical contractor. (Ord. O-86-7
§ 1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
14.11.020 Registration-Required.
Any electrical contractor wishing to do business within the city shall register
with the Building Official. (Ord. O-90-15 § 32, 1990: Ord. O-86-7 §
1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
14.11.030 Registration-Form.
The Building Official shall adopt a registration form which shall include, among
other things:
A. The name and address of the electrical contractor;
B. A copy of the current Colorado State Electrical Contractor's License Certificate;

by the electrical contractor to obtain electrical permits;

F. The names and addresses of all corporate officers, directors, and holders
of ten percent or more of the corporate stock of any class of the electrical
contractor. (Ord. O-86-7 § 1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
14.11.040 Registration-Validity-Renewal.
A registration shall remain valid for a period of one year from the date of
issuance. A registration may be renewed by filing an application form furnished
by the Building Official and paying a forty dollar fee to cover the costs of
processing the renewal. A change of name, business designation, or address must
be reported to the Building Official within thirty days after making such a
change. A change of partners, officers, directors, or owners of ten percent
or more of the corporate stock must be reported to the Building Official within
thirty days after such change. Failure to report such changes within the time
limit shall cause the registration to expire by force of law and become invalid
at the expiration of the thirty-day period. (Ord. O-86-7 § 1 (Exh. A (part)),
1986).
14.11.050 Registration-Transferability.
A registration is not transferable. Upon the occurrence of any of the following,
a new registration shall be obtained:
A. Incorporation or change in incorporation creating any new legal entity shall
require a new registration for such entity, even though one or more stockholders
or directors may be registered;
B. The organization of a partnership or the change of partners in a partnership
shall require a new registration even though one or more of the partners may
currently be registered;
C. Dissolution of the corporation or partnership which has been registered terminates
the registration and no individual or firm may operate under such registration.
(Ord. O-86-7 § 1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
14.11.060 Registration-Suspension or revocation.
A. The Building Official may suspend or revoke a registration when the electrical
contractor (including partners of a partnership, members of a firm or joint
venture, or officers, directors, or holders of ten percent or more of the stock
of a corporate registrant) commits one or more of the following acts or omissions:
1. Failure to comply with any of the registration provisions of this section;
2. Knowingly giving false information on a registration application;
3. Violation of any provisions of the building code.
B. The registration shall automatically be suspended upon the suspension by
the State Electrical Board of a license held by the electrical contractor as
an entity or of a member of a firm or joint venture, or an officer, director,
or holder of ten percent or more of the stock of a corporate registrant. The
registration shall be cancelled upon the revocation of any such license by the
State Electrical Board.
C. If the Building Official finds that emergency cause exists for suspension
or cancellation of a registration, he may enter an order for immediate suspension
of such registration, pending further investigation and proceedings for suspension
or revocation as herein provided. The electrical contractor may, upon notice
of such suspension, request an immediate hearing before the Building Official.
D. When the Building Official deems that a registration shall be suspended or
revoked, the procedures shall be the same as prescribed for the suspension or
revocation of a license. Appeals shall be in accordance with the provisions
for appeal of a license revocation. (Ord. O-94-40 § 3, 1994; Ord. O-86-7
§ 1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
14.11.070 Registration-Required for performance of work.
It is unlawful for any electrical contractor, as defined in Section 14.11.010,
to undertake or offer to undertake for another the planning, laying out, supervising,
installing or making of additions, alterations or repairs in the installation
of wiring apparatus and equipment for electrical light, heat or power, unless
such electrical contractor shall be registered with the city pursuant to the
terms and provisions of the ordinance codified in this chapter, and unless such
registration is then currently effective and in good standing, and not suspended,
revoked, terminated or expired. (Ord. O-86-7 § 1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
14.11.080 Electrical permit issuance.
No electrical permit shall be issued to any electrical contractor who does not
have a valid and effective registration at the time of issuance of such permit;
nor shall an electrical permit be issued to an owner or to any other person
or contractor for the performance of work within the city by an electrical contractor
who does not have a valid and effective registration at the time of issuance
of such permit; provided, however, that the Building Official may, in his discretion,
issue a permit for such work to an owner or contractor upon the specific written
condition made a part of such permit that the planning, laying out, supervising,
installing, or making of additions, alterations, or repairs in the installation
of wiring apparatus and equipment for electrical light, heat or power shall
be performed by an electrical contractor having a valid and effective registration
under the provisions hereto at the time of the performance of the work under
such permit. (Ord. O-86-7 § 1 (Exh. A (part)), 1986).
