Fire Alarm System Permit in Logan, Utah

Fire protection and fire code enforcement in Logan is provided by the Logan City Fire Department (LCFD) Fire Prevention Bureau. Automatic fire alarm system plan review and inspection is charged under City of Logan Resolution No. 23-14, 'A Resolution Adopting Fire Prevention Inspection Fees' (adopted by the Logan Municipal Council in 2023, in effect as of its passage date). Read directly from the resolution's own attached Fire Department Fee Schedule (fetched and read as a raw PDF on 2026-07-21, not summarized): the schedule gives only two combined project scenarios — 'New Construction/Tenant Improvements without fire sprinklers or fire alarm' ($75 general plan review + $75 final inspection = $150 total) and 'New Construction/Tenant Improvements with fire sprinklers and fire alarms' ($75 general plan review + $75 fire alarm plan review + $75 fire sprinkler plan review + $75 fire alarm rough-install inspection + $75 fire sprinkler rough-install inspection + $150 final inspection [24-hour test, 2 visits] = $525 total, rising to $675 if a kitchen hood suppression system is also involved). The schedule does not publish a stand-alone 'alarm only, no sprinkler' scenario — the itemized $75 Fire Alarm Plan Review and $75 Fire Alarm Rough-Install Inspection line items are confirmed as distinct charges within that combined schedule, and every project also incurs the shared $75 General Plan Review plus a $75-$150 Final Inspection charge regardless of which specific systems are involved.

Tips

  • Logan City Fire Department (LCFD) — not the Building Department — handles fire alarm plan review through its Fire Prevention Bureau; contact Fire Marshal Craig Humphreys at (435) 716-9515.
  • Resolution No. 23-14's fee schedule only publishes combined totals for 'no fire systems' ($150) or 'sprinklers and alarms together' ($525, or $675 with a kitchen hood system) — it does not price a stand-alone 'alarm only' project, though the $75 alarm-specific plan review and rough-install line items are individually confirmed within that combined schedule.
  • LCFD requires certain fire alarm plans to go through a mandatory third-party peer review by an LCFD-approved firm before LCFD grants final approval — this firm's fee is separate from and in addition to LCFD's own Resolution No. 23-14 charges, and is not published by the city since each firm sets its own private rate.
