Commercial Tenant Improvement / Tenant Finish Permit in Price, Utah

Required for interior tenant-improvement and tenant-finish work within existing commercial space on property within Price City limits. Carbon County does not publish a fee category or checklist distinct from new commercial construction — the same Commercial and Industrial Structures checklist and unconditional engineered-plan requirement apply, scoped to the actual work performed. Price City zoning approval is still required for the underlying property/use unless the TI is a pure interior scope not implicating zoning.

Tips

  • No dollar-amount fee table for tenant improvements is published on carbon.utah.gov — contact the Building Department at (435) 636-3260 for a project-specific quote. Re-chased again 2026-07-23 (Wayback CDX sweep, Business License page/Ordinance 281 trace, Utah PMN full-text search API) with no new figure found — see this jurisdiction's residential-building-permit localAmendments for the full 2026-07-23 chase log; this is a county-wide gap shared with the general commercial-building-permit entry, not specific to tenant improvements.
  • Even an interior-only tenant finish that changes structural, electrical, plumbing, or mechanical systems requires stamped engineering from a Utah-registered Architect or Professional Engineer per discipline, per the county's unconditional commercial engineering requirement.

Price, Utah has adopted: GOVERNING LAW: Utah Code § 15A-2-103 (le.utah.gov/xcode/Title15A/Chapter2/15A-2-S103.html), version effective 7/1/2026 (amended by Ch. 47, 2026 General Session), sets the statewide-mandatory construction code suite — Utah Code § 15A-1-204 binds 'the state and each political subdivision,' which includes Carbon County as the compliance agency serving Price City (Price has no independent building-permit authority; see localAmendments). Carbon County's own Building Permits page ('What codes are enforced?' FAQ) still displays the pre-7/1/2026 edition list; re-checked live 2026-07-16, page text is byte-identical to the 2026-07-08 fetch ('2021 International Building Code, including Appendix J 2021 International Residential Code 2021-Appendix Q of 2021 IRC 2021 IPC, 2021 IMC, 2021 IFGC, 2020 NEC'). State law governs regardless of the page's lag; each line below states current law first, then the county's as-published (stale or omitted) text.; 2024 International Building Code (IBC), including Appendix J — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a), effective 7/1/2026. Carbon County's Building Permits FAQ still lists '2021 International Building Code, including Appendix J' (live re-check 2026-07-16).; 2021 International Residential Code (IRC), including Appendix Q — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b)/(c); this edition did NOT change in the 7/1/2026 flip. Matches Carbon County's FAQ, which lists '2021 International Residential Code, 2021-Appendix Q of 2021 IRC' (live re-check 2026-07-16).; 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d), effective 7/1/2026. Carbon County's FAQ still lists '2021 IPC' (live re-check 2026-07-16).; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e), effective 7/1/2026. Carbon County's FAQ still lists '2021 IMC' (live re-check 2026-07-16).; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f), effective 7/1/2026. Carbon County's FAQ still lists '2021 IFGC' (live re-check 2026-07-16).; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g); this edition did NOT change in the 7/1/2026 flip. Carbon County's FAQ still lists '2020 NEC' (live re-check 2026-07-16) — this is a PRE-EXISTING discrepancy that predates and is unrelated to the 2026-07-01 code-cycle flip (the 2023 NEC has been state law since before this project's original 2026-07-08 review); reported here as-published rather than corrected.; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), one statewide edition (no residential/commercial split) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h), effective 7/1/2026. Not mentioned anywhere on Carbon County's Building Permits FAQ, Building Department page, or Building Information/Resources page as of live re-check 2026-07-16; added here as a statute-sourced omission (applies statewide regardless of county publication), not fabricated.; 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i), effective 7/1/2026. Not mentioned on any Carbon County page reviewed as of live re-check 2026-07-16; added as a statute-sourced omission.; Residential provisions of the 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(n), effective 7/1/2026. Not mentioned on any Carbon County page reviewed as of live re-check 2026-07-16; added as a statute-sourced omission.; Modular Building Institute (MBI) Standards 1200 and 1205 — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(o), statewide-mandated for modular units. Not mentioned on any Carbon County page reviewed as of live re-check 2026-07-16; added as a statute-sourced omission.; No International Fire Code (IFC) entry: § 15A-2-103 does not adopt the IFC — it is separately governed under Title 15A Chapter 5, outside the scope of this section. Carbon County's FAQ does not list an IFC edition either, so there is no mis-citation to correct here.. Local amendments apply — see the Price overview page for the full list.

Yes — Carbon County issues the building permit for tenant-improvement work using the same Commercial and Industrial Structures checklist as new commercial construction (there is no separate, lighter-weight TI process), and reviews can take up to 21 business days once all required documents are received.
