Fruit Heights, Utah has adopted: 2024 International Building Code (IBC), including Appendices C and J — current statewide-mandatory edition per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a), effective July 1, 2026, binding on Fruit Heights as a Utah municipality per § 15A-1-204. Fruit Heights City's own official Building Permits page 'Design Criteria' section (fruitheights.gov/251/Building-Permits) still lists '2018 International Building Code' as of a live re-check on 2026-07-16 — a genuine lag on the city's own page; the statewide statute governs regardless.; 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) — current statewide edition per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b); unchanged by the July 1, 2026 statewide update. Fruit Heights' Design Criteria page lists '2015 International Residential Code' as of 2026-07-16 — a pre-existing lag on the city's page (predates and is unrelated to the 2026 flip), also superseded by the statewide-mandatory 2021 edition.; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — current statewide edition per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e), effective July 1, 2026. Fruit Heights' Design Criteria page lists '2018 Mechanical... Code' as of 2026-07-16 — a lag on the city's own page.; 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — current statewide edition per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d), effective July 1, 2026. Fruit Heights' Design Criteria page lists '2018... Plumbing... Code' as of 2026-07-16 — a lag on the city's own page.; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) — current statewide edition per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h), effective July 1, 2026. Fruit Heights' Design Criteria page lists '2018... Energy Code' as of 2026-07-16 — a lag on the city's own page.; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — current statewide edition per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g); unchanged by the July 1, 2026 statewide update. Fruit Heights' Design Criteria page lists '2017 Electrical Code' as of 2026-07-16 — a pre-existing lag on the city's page (the statewide NEC cycle has advanced 2017→2020→2023 across multiple prior update cycles, predating and unrelated to the July 2026 IBC/IPC/IMC/IECC flip).; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC), and the residential provisions of the 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) — adopted statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f), (1)(i), and (1)(n) respectively; none of these titles are separately itemized on Fruit Heights' own Design Criteria page (which lists only Building, Residential, Mechanical, Plumbing, Energy, and Electrical), but all apply statewide regardless of the page's omission.; Note: the city's codified Municipal Code Title 9, Chapter 1 (Building Codes and Regulations; amlegal/city PDF, last amended 'July 2006') still references the legacy 'Uniform Building Code, current edition' and Utah Plumbing/Electrical codes by older nomenclature and has not been re-codified to reflect the state's IBC/IRC adoption cycle under Utah Code § 15A-2-103; the statewide statute is authoritative as a matter of law regardless of either the live Building Permits page's lag or Title 9 Chapter 1's older nomenclature, consistent with Title 9 Chapter 1 § 9-1-3's own provision that subsequent code editions are 'deemed adopted automatically... without further action of the city council.'. Local amendments apply — see the Fruit Heights overview page for the full list.
