Commercial Tenant Improvement / Tenant Finish Permit in North Logan, Utah

North Logan requires a commercial tenant improvement / tenant finish permit for: Alteration to an existing commercial building or structure — NLMC § 9-201 requires a permit for any construction or alteration of a building or structure (except a fence); Written application accompanied by 2 sets of plans and specifications stating the specific nature of the alteration, per NLMC § 9-203; Down payment of $1,100 due at application if the remodel affects more than 3,000 sq. ft. of a building other than a single-family home AND requires structural changes; otherwise the $50 'all other permits' down payment tier applies, per the Master Fee Schedule's down-payment table; Whether a Zoning Clearance (Step 1) is separately required is NOT explicitly stated for interior tenant improvement work — North Logan's Building Department page scopes Zoning Clearance to 'the construction or modification of any permanent structure,' with examples limited to primary/accessory/agricultural structures, signs, fences, pools, and retaining walls over 3 feet; interior finish work that does not modify the structure's exterior, footprint, or height is not listed as requiring or being exempt from Zoning Clearance. North Logan's Community Development (Planning & Zoning) page (northlogancity.gov/community-development) states the same trigger in slightly broader wording — 'the construction or modification of any permanent structure or permanent improvement' — still with the same closed list of examples and no mention of interior/tenant-improvement work either way. NLMC Title 12 (Land Use), the title that would substantively define and scope 'Zoning Clearance,' contains exactly ONE mention of the term 'Zoning Clearance' in the entire title, a single table row assigning review authority ('Site Plan Review / Zoning Clearance' — City Staff / DRC / Zoning Administrator), with no definitional or applicability section, and zero occurrences of 'tenant improvement,' 'tenant finish,' 'interior remodel,' or 'interior alteration' anywhere in the title. This is consistent with the code host's own site-wide notice that 'Title 12 was amended by Ordinance 25-11 in its entirety; and is currently being codified' and that the current Title 12C (Zoning) exists only as a separate downloadable PDF not yet reflected in the online code book. The governing zoning ordinance that would resolve this question is therefore not currently accessible in the online municipal code — a documentation gap in the city's own published/codified materials..

Per the North Logan Master Fee Schedule's Building Permit Fees down-payment table, it depends on scope: $1,100 if the remodel affects more than 3,000 sq. ft. of a non-single-family building and requires structural changes, or $50 for smaller/non-structural tenant improvement work. The underlying Building Permit Fee itself remains valuation-based under the 1997 Uniform Building Code Table No. 3-A (NLMC § 9-205).

This is not explicitly addressed in North Logan's published materials. Zoning Clearance is described as applying to 'the construction or modification of any permanent structure' (or, per the city's Community Development page, 'any permanent structure or permanent improvement'), with listed examples limited to primary/accessory structures, signs, fences, pools, and retaining walls — interior tenant finish work that doesn't alter the building's exterior, footprint, or height is not specifically listed either way. A direct read of NLMC Title 12 (Land Use) turned up no substantive Zoning Clearance definition section — that title is mid-recodification and the current zoning ordinance exists only as an unincorporated PDF. Confirm with the Building Department, (435) 752-1310, before submitting.
