Commercial Tenant Improvement / Tenant Finish Permit in Tremonton, Utah

Tremonton does not publish a separate tenant-improvement fee category. The City's Consolidated Fees and Fines Schedule (Resolution No. 25-42, effective 08/26/2025), Sections 3.3-3.4, bills all 'Industrial, Institutional, Commercial, & Governmental' work -- new construction, additions, and interior tenant-improvement/remodel projects alike -- under the same uniform structure: a 1%-of-Building-Valuation Permit Fee, a 1%-of-Permit-Fee State Fee, and a 65%-of-(Permit Fee + State Fee) Plan Review Fee (versus the 35% residential rate), with no separate tenant-improvement or commercial-remodel line item anywhere in the schedule. This is confirmed by direct read of the full Section 3.3/3.4 fee tables, which list only 'Permit Fee' and 'State Fee' (3.3) and 'Plan Review Fee' (3.4) rows -- no tenant-improvement or remodel sub-category exists on the commercial side, in contrast to Section 3.1's residential-only 'Small Scale Remodel or Construction' reduced-rate carve-outs (e.g., $60.00 electrical-only inspection).

Tips

  • Tremonton has no separate tenant-improvement fee line item -- interior commercial build-outs are billed under the same Section 3.3/3.4 'Industrial, Institutional, Commercial, & Governmental' Permit Fee (1% of valuation), State Fee (1% of Permit Fee), and 65% Plan Review Fee used for new commercial and industrial construction.
  • This contrasts with Tremonton's residential fee schedule (Section 3.1), which carves out reduced flat/percentage rates for 'Small Scale Remodel or Construction' (e.g., $60.00 electrical-only) -- no equivalent small-scale or tenant-improvement carve-out exists on the commercial side of the fee schedule.

Tremonton's own Building Criteria PDF (live-checked 2026-07-16, still hosted at the same URL, last modified April 2024) still lists '2021 International Building Code' and has not been updated to reflect the 7/1/2026 statewide edition change — the statute controls over the lagging city document.; 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) — REMAINS CURRENT; Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b) did NOT change this edition in the 7/1/2026 statewide amendment. Consistent with Tremonton's own Building Criteria document.; Appendix AQ of the 2021 IRC — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(c); not itemized in Tremonton's own Building Criteria document, added here per statute.; 2021 International Fire Code (IFC) — per Tremonton's own Building Criteria document; NOTE: the IFC is adopted under Utah Code Title 15A Chapter 5, not § 15A-2-103 (which governs the IBC/IRC/IPC/IMC/IFGC/IECC/IEBC/NEC/residential-ISPSC/MBI editions listed in this array) — § 15A-2-103 does not itself adopt or list an IFC edition, so this entry is unaffected by the 7/1/2026 § 15A-2-103 amendment.; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f); supersedes the 2021 edition.

Tremonton's own Building Criteria document (live-checked 2026-07-16, still hosted at the same URL) lists '2020 National Electrical Code,' which is NOT a valid statewide-adopted edition and has not been corrected by the City — the statute controls. Confirm the currently enforced NEC edition directly with the Building Department before relying on the City's own document for a live project.; 1997 Edition of the Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings — per the same document; not governed by § 15A-2-103; 2017 Edition of the ICC/ANSI A117.1 Standard for Accessibility — per the same document; not governed by § 15A-2-103; 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i); not itemized in Tremonton's own Building Criteria document, added here per statute since the City's own materials omit it.; Residential provisions of the 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(n); not itemized in Tremonton's own Building Criteria document, added here per statute since the City's own materials omit it.; MBI 1200 and MBI 1205 (manufactured/modular construction standards) — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(o); not itemized in Tremonton's own Building Criteria document, added here per statute since the City's own materials omit it.; NOTE (2026-07-16 re-verification): Utah Code § 15A-2-103, version effective 7/1/2026 (superseded 1/1/2027), took effect 15 days before this re-verification. IBC/IPC/IMC/IFGC/IECC/IEBC/residential ISPSC are now 2024 statewide; IRC (2021) and NEC (2023) did NOT change from the prior cycle. Tremonton's own Building Criteria PDF (tremontoncity.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BUILDING-DESIGN-CRITERIA.pdf) was re-fetched live 2026-07-16 and still lists 2021 IBC/IFGC/IMC/IPC/'2021 Energy Conservation Code' and an outright incorrect '2020 National Electrical Code' — none of these have been updated by the City to reflect the statewide 7/1/2026 transition or the pre-existing 2023 NEC requirement. The statute is cited directly as governing throughout; the City's lagging document is preserved above as recorded history, not deleted..
