Change of Use Permit (Business License Relocation / New Occupancy Review) in North Logan, Utah

North Logan does not publish a single, distinctly-named 'Change of Use Permit.' A direct fetch of the city's own Business License Department page (northlogancity.gov/business-license) and North Logan Municipal Code (NLMC) Title 8, Regulation Of Business, confirms the functional mechanism instead: NLMC § 8-111 requires 'a separate license must be obtained for each separate place of business,' and each license 'authorize[s] the licensee to engage only in the business licensed thereby at the location or in the manner designated' — meaning a business relocating to a different building/tenant space, or changing its use, must file a new Business License Application (Form B-3) at the new location/use rather than transfer the old one (licenses are non-transferable per NLMC § 8-109 and § 8-413). Form B-3's 'Building Code Compliance Information' section (building use, square footage, fire sprinkler status, number of exits/stories, whether construction/remodeling is occurring) functions as North Logan's use/occupancy screening in place of a separate zoning-compliance certificate. Certain business types require an additional Conditional Use Permit from the Planning Commission per NLMC § 8-505 (child care over 8 children, licensed group child care, beauty/barber shops with more than 3 practitioners, instruction groups exceeding 4 students/class, and all short-term rentals per NLMC § 12C-517), a distinct $350.00 fee per the Master Fee Schedule's Misc. Development Fees section. Where the change of use requires construction to accommodate the new occupancy, that construction is billed under this file's commercial-building-permit or commercial-tenant-improvement-permit entries (including the Zoning Clearance question left open in the latter) — those fees are not duplicated here. No certificate-of-occupancy or change-of-use ordinance provision was found anywhere in NLMC Title 9 (Building And Construction) — a full-text check of that title for 'occupancy'/'occupant' returned only one unrelated match (§ 9-503, utility disconnection notice to a building's 'owner or occupant'). NLMC Title 12 (Land Use) was replaced in its entirety by Ordinance 25-11 and is still being codified online as of this research (2026-07-22), so a distinct Title 12C zoning/use-change provision cannot be ruled out, but is not independently confirmed.

Tips

  • North Logan has no separate 'Change of Location' or 'Change of Use' fee category like some neighboring cities — a business moving to a new building or tenant space simply files a new Business License Application (Form B-3) for that location, since NLMC § 8-111 requires a distinct license per 'separate place of business' and NLMC § 8-109/§ 8-413 make licenses non-transferable.
  • Check NLMC § 8-505 before assuming no extra review is needed: child care (over 8 children), licensed group child care, beauty/barber shops with more than 3 practitioners, group instruction exceeding 4 students per class, and all short-term rentals require a separate $350.00 Conditional Use Permit from the Planning Commission regardless of whether the business is new or relocating.
  • If the new occupancy requires any construction or remodeling (Form B-3 explicitly asks this), budget for the separate commercial-building-permit or commercial-tenant-improvement-permit process documented elsewhere in this file — the Business License fee alone does not cover that work.
  • North Logan Municipal Code Title 12 (Land Use) was replaced in its entirety by Ordinance 25-11 and remains only partially codified online as of 2026-07-22 — confirm with the Community Development Department, (435) 752-1310 ext. 105, whether a newer Title 12C provision addresses change-of-use zoning review before relying solely on the business-license mechanism described here.

North Logan, Utah has adopted: 2024 International Building Code (IBC), including Appendices C and J — North Logan Municipal Code § 9-401 adopts 'the building codes, adopted by the State of Utah'; per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a), the 2024 IBC is CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026, superseding the 2021 edition previously listed here. Because NLMC § 9-401 is a blanket cross-reference to the state's adopted edition rather than a hardcoded year, North Logan's local ordinance tracks the statute automatically — no city ordinance amendment was needed for this transition. North Logan's own Building Codes & Design Criteria page links directly to the State Adopted Codes list rather than publishing a separate local list, and states 'there are no local amendments for North Logan' (live-checked 2026-07-16, unchanged).; 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 transition. Adopted per NLMC § 9-401's blanket adoption of state-adopted building codes.; Appendix AQ of the 2021 IRC — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(c); not separately itemized in NLMC Title 9, added here per statute.; 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — NLMC § 9-600/§ 9-701 adopts 'the Uniform Plumbing Code, currently adopted by State of Utah'; per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d), the 2024 IPC is CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026, superseding the 2021 edition previously listed here (blanket cross-reference tracks the statute automatically).; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — NLMC § 9-705 adopts the mechanical code 'as adopted by State of Utah'; per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e), the 2024 IMC is CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026, superseding the 2021 edition previously listed here.; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — NLMC § 9-702 adopts the fuel gas code 'as adopted by the State of Utah'; per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f), the 2024 IFGC is CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026, superseding the 2021 edition previously listed here.; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), single unsplit statewide edition — NLMC § 9-707 adopts the energy conservation code 'as adopted by State of Utah'; per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h), the 2024 IECC is CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026, superseding the 2021 edition previously listed here.; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — REMAINS CURRENT; NLMC § 9-500/§ 9-501 adopts 'the electrical code, adopted by the State of Utah'; Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g) did not change this edition in the 7/1/2026 statewide transition.; 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i); not itemized as its own section in NLMC Title 9, added here per statute since North Logan's own materials omit it (covered generally by NLMC § 9-401's blanket building-code adoption).; Residential provisions of the 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(n); not itemized as its own section in NLMC Title 9, added here per statute since North Logan'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. North Logan's Building Codes & Design Criteria page (northlogancity.gov/building) was live-checked 2026-07-16: it still links generically to the state's 'State Adopted Codes' list rather than itemizing edition years itself, and still states 'there are no local amendments for North Logan' — no page-vs-statute lag was found because the page (like NLMC Title 9's own text) defers entirely to the state's current list rather than asserting specific years.. Local amendments apply — see the North Logan overview page for the full list.

Not as a single named product. North Logan Municipal Code § 8-111 requires a separate Business License for each separate place of business, and § 8-109/§ 8-413 make licenses non-transferable, so a business relocating or changing its use in North Logan files a new Business License Application (Form B-3) for the new location. A full search of NLMC Title 9 (Building And Construction) for 'occupancy'/'occupant' found no dedicated certificate-of-occupancy-for-existing-buildings provision. Certain business types (per NLMC § 8-505) additionally require a $350.00 Conditional Use Permit from the Planning Commission.
