Your detached structure is too close to the east property line. Denver requires at least 5 feet. You're showing 3 feet.
Action: Move the ADU east wall or reduce the building footprint to achieve 5'-0" minimum east setback. Revise site plan and resubmit.
The bedroom window is too small for emergency escape. Code requires at least 5.7 sq ft of openable space; yours is only 4.2 sq ft.
Action: Upsize bedroom 1 egress window to provide at least 5.7 sq ft net clear opening area. Update window schedule and elevation.
The bathroom has no ventilation shown. You need either an exhaust fan or an operable window that opens to the outside.
Action: Add bathroom exhaust fan spec (50 CFM min) or confirm operable window meets area requirement. Add ventilation note to floor plan.
The electrical panel schedule doesn't show arc-fault protection for bedroom circuits. This is required by code.
Action: Add AFCI breaker notation to all bedroom circuits in panel schedule. Confirm with electrician.
Smoke detector locations are missing from the floor plan. Code requires them in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on each floor level.
Action: Add smoke detector symbols to floor plan: inside each bedroom, outside bedroom doors, and at each floor level. Add specification note.
The structural drawings don't show the metal connectors that hold the walls down during wind/seismic events. Your structural engineer needs to add these details.
Action: Structural engineer to provide hold-down schedule and detail sheet. Reference on floor plan at shear wall locations.
You didn't include the energy compliance report. Denver requires a REScheck report showing your building meets 2021 energy code.
Action: Run REScheck analysis for proposed construction. Print and include signed compliance report with resubmittal package.
