Building inspections go through SafeBuilt at 970-305-3161. Permit processing has its own line at 970-578-9608.

Johnstown Public Records Contacts

Public records in Johnstown come from three levels of government. Town records are held at town hall. County records go through Weld or Larimer County depending on your location. State records have their own agencies and phone numbers.

Colorado's open records law, C.R.S. 24-72-201, gives anyone the right to inspect and copy most government documents. This applies to all Johnstown town departments. You can file a request with the town clerk by phone, email, or by using the online form on the Johnstown website. The town must respond within three business days. Fees for copies vary by department, but looking at records in person is usually free. The CORA page on the Secretary of State site explains the process in detail.

Criminal justice records fall under C.R.S. 24-72-301. This is a separate law that covers arrest records, police reports, and investigation files. The Johnstown Police Department handles these requests at 970-578-9971. Some records are available right away. Others take a few days depending on the type of file and whether parts need to be blacked out for privacy.

Court records are managed by the state court system. CJD 05-01 sets the rules on which court records are open to the public and which stay sealed. Most civil and criminal case files from Johnstown are open for anyone to view. You can search for cases through the Colorado Judicial Branch online lookup tool or call 720-625-5000 for help with the system.

State Agency Phone Numbers

Some services that Johnstown residents need are handled at the state level. These agencies have their own phone lines and websites. City and county staff cannot transfer you to state offices, so you need to call these numbers directly.

The Colorado DMV main number is (303) 205-5600 for driver license and vehicle title questions.

Finding the Right Johnstown Number

Johnstown is a bit different from most Colorado towns because it sits in two counties. That means you have three sets of contacts to work with: town, county, and state. Getting the right one on the first try saves you time and transfers.

For local services like water, sewer, streets, and building permits, call Johnstown Town Hall at 970-587-4664. For police matters, use the non-emergency line at 970-587-5555. Municipal court is at 970-578-9607. These are all town-level contacts and do not depend on which county you live in.

County-level needs are where it gets tricky. If your address is in Weld County, you deal with offices in Greeley. Call 970-400-4000 for the Weld County main line. If your address is in Larimer County, your county seat is Fort Collins. Call 970-498-7000 for the Larimer County main line. Property taxes, vehicle registration, court filings, and elections all depend on which county your parcel is in.
