East Grand Fire Impact Fees:

Starting in 2001, the District has had agreements with the towns of Fraser, Winter Park and Grand County to collect impact fees. The agreements with the towns were updated at the end of 2014 and with Grand County at the beginning of 2015. An impact fee is a one-time charge for new development that attempts to recover the cost incurred by local government in providing the public facilities required to serve new development.

PLEASE NOTE, THE GRAND COUNTY BUILDING DEPARTMENT HAS GONE TO AN ALL ELECTRONIC PERMITTING SYSTEM AS OF SEPTEMBER 1ST. IMPACT FEES WILL ALSO NOW BE ALL ELECTRONIC FOR PROJECTS IN UNINCORPORATED GRAND COUNTY. WE WILL NO LONGER REQUIRE HARD COPY PLANS NOR WILL WE STAMP THEM.

PLEASE SEE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NEW PROCESS BELOW.

  • IF YOUR PROJECT IS OUTSIDE THE TOWN LIMITS OF WINTER PARK / FRASER (UNINCORPORATED GRAND COUNTY):
    1. Email your Plans for review to egfd@eastgrandfire.com.
    2. We will then email you back an invoice for the Fire Impact Fee.
    3. You can pay by check, or by credit card at https://secure.colorado.gov/payment/egfd-impact
    4. Once payment is received, we will send you a receipt which stand as your “Proof of Fire Impact Fee.” This is what you will upload with the rest of your documents into the County’s Building Permit Electronic System – Cloud Permit.
  • IF YOU PROJECT IS WITHIN THE TOWN LIMITS OF FRASER / WINTER PARK:
    Please handle all Impact Fee payments directly with the Town of Winter Park building Department.

Kitchen Hood Replacement Program a Success!!

kitchen fire

kitchen fire burn damage

Over the last decade, our local restaurants were faced with the financial burden of updating their kitchen fire suppression systems to meet changing fire safety standards. East Grand Fire wanted to help lessen this costly expense for our local restaurants so thus created the Commercial Kitchen Safety Incentive Program. This provided up to a $500.00 grant to help the with required replacement of antiquated kitchen hood fire suppression systems in the East Grand Fire Protection District.

We are pleased to say that, to date, East Grand Fire was able to help 11 establishments with the required upgrade to their hood systems. The project is now being completed and East Grand Fire is very happy to have been able to be a part of this important life safety and property preservation enhancing project for our community.
