Tips

  • Confirm ADU zoning eligibility with Logan Community Development before designing or applying — (435) 716-9030.
  • ADU building permit fees are valuation-based per Resolution No. 20-09, the same as new residential construction.
  • Impact fees for new dwelling units are separate from building permit fees — see Logan's Impact Fee schedule on the fees page.
  • Utah's statewide internal-ADU law (HB82, 2021) governs baseline ADU legalization; specific zoning standards (size, parking, setbacks) remain locally administered and should be confirmed directly with Logan Community Development, as local zoning code text was not independently re-verified in this pass.
