Permit coverage
Montrose County holds permit records from 1990-01-01 forward. This property's recorded year built is 1978, which precedes that date, so any permit history from before 1990-01-01 is not held in the county's system and is not established by its absence here.
What the records do not establish
- Tax bill amounts were not retrieved.Where a human would look: the county Treasurer's tax inquiry, searched by parcel.
- Permit attachments and inspection results were not retrieved; only permit headers were read.Where a human would look: the permit portal, opening each record and its attachments.
- No base flood elevation is published for this polygon in the county product.Where a human would look: the flood insurance study profile for this stream reach.
- Flood status was determined from a single point at the parcel centroid, not from the parcel boundary. Part of a parcel can lie in a flood zone while its centroid does not.Where a human would look: the flood map panel compared against the recorded plat.
- No wetlands inventory polygon covers the parcel centroid. The inventory is a remote-sensing product and is not a jurisdictional wetland determination; absence here does not establish that no wetlands are present on the parcel.National wetlands inventory (illustrative) [6]Where a human would look: a delineation by a qualified wetland professional.
Questions worth resolving
- Confirm status with Montrose County Building Department: Permit BLD-2024-11987 (Building Residential - Addition) is recorded as "Issued".Why this appearspermit status is open, expired, or not finalized
- Obtain a flood insurance quote before contingency deadlines (NFHL zone AE).Why this appearsparcel intersects an NFHL Special Flood Hazard Area
- Ask what accounts for the difference between the last recorded sale price ($612,000, 04/09/2021) and the current assessment ($798,400) — a 30.5% difference.Why this appearslast recorded sale price and current assessment differ by more than 25%
- Zoning district is R-2 — read the district's ordinance section: <https://records.montrose-county.example.invalid/zoning-ordinance/r-2>. Confirm the intended use is permitted in this district.Why this appearsstanding rule: every brief states the zoning district and links its ordinance section
