You may print and complete all pages of the building permit application and return them to the Town of Bennett in person or by mail. You may also complete the electronic form and return by email. Send the completed application to the Town of Bennett Building Department by:
- Hand delivery (during regular business hours)
- USPS - mail (207 Muegge Way, Bennett 80102)

A representative will process the application and notify you of the fee to be paid by cash, check or online with a credit card. Credit cards cannot be taken over the phone.
Once payment has been received, a receipt, permit and permit card will be completed and work may commence.
Failure to obtain a permit prior to beginning work will result in the permit fees doubling.
