Exposure & timing
Foothill weather deserves its own conversation. The National Weather Service notes that Colorado foothills can experience significant high-wind and winter-weather conditions, so weather timing is helpful context to share.

Where can I check Golden building permits and inspections?
The City of Golden links its building-permit records and inspection scheduling through its official Accela portal. Properties outside city boundaries need the authority for their actual jurisdiction.
Why is wind timing useful for a foothills chimney concern?
NWS describes strong Front Range downslope winds and associated structural and debris hazards. Record when a cap, chase cover or roofline condition changed; wind history is context for an assessment, not proof of the cause.
