One of the submittal requirements for application for a building permit is evidence of a potable water supply to the property. Typically, this evidence is provided in the form of a water tap contract or recent water bill from a public entity, or a well construction and test report, a pump installation report or other evidence of an existing well. In some rare cases, however, none of the above options are viable and so, under certain circumstances, a cistern may be accepted as a primary water supply.
The Fremont County Building Department enforces the International Building Code, the International Residential Code and the International Energy Conservation Code, 2018 Editions, as amended by Resolution of the Fremont Board of County Commissioners in Resolution No. 60, Series of 2020. Copies of the code books and the adopting resolution are available for view at the Building Department.
