What this form is

The declaration states that a guest house or garage apartment may house only guests, servants, or family members occupying the main building, and may not be rented or have cooking facilities or separate utility meters. The form says the restriction must be recorded before a building permit is issued. The supplied document names a municipal code and mailing address that do not match Winter Park, Colorado, so verify that this is the correct form before signing or submitting it.

Who needs it

The property owner applying for a building permit to construct or substantially improve a guest house or garage apartment of 1,000 square feet or less needs this declaration.

Why it needs a notary

The form carries an acknowledgment, not a jurat; the owner’s corporate representative signs and acknowledges the instrument before the notary.
