Syracuse, Utah has adopted: 2024 International Building Code (IBC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a); CURRENT as of 7/1/2026. Supersedes the 2021 IBC, which governed through 6/30/2026. Matches Syracuse's own Building Department page, which lists '2024 IBC' among its currently-adopted codes.; 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b); UNCHANGED by the 7/1/2026 code cycle. NOTE — city-page discrepancy: Syracuse's own Building Department page (syracuseut.gov/160/Building) states verbatim: 'Syracuse City has adopted minimum design and construction requirements found in the 2024 IBC, IPC, IMC and IRC, as well as the 2023 NEC (Please note, starting July 1, 2026, the state of Utah will be adopting the 2024 International Building Codes, IBC, IPC, IMC, IFC, IFGC, IEBC, and IECC, while the International Residential Code (IRC) will remain 2024, and the National Electrical Code (NEC) will remain 2023).' The city's own page appears to have an error here, listing IRC as 2024 both currently and going forward. Utah is a statewide-mandatory-code state — Utah Code § 15A-1-204 requires the state and every political subdivision to follow the State Construction Code, and a municipality cannot unilaterally adopt a different IRC edition than the state. The statute controls (2021 IRC); the city page's apparent error is recorded here rather than silently reconciled.; 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d); CURRENT as of 7/1/2026. Supersedes the 2021 IPC, which governed through 6/30/2026. Matches Syracuse's own Building Department page.; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e); CURRENT as of 7/1/2026. Supersedes the 2021 IMC, which governed through 6/30/2026. Matches Syracuse's own Building Department page.; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f); CURRENT as of 7/1/2026. Supersedes the 2021 IFGC, which governed through 6/30/2026.; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g); UNCHANGED by the 7/1/2026 code cycle. Syracuse's Building Department page concurs ('...as well as the 2023 NEC').; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h); CURRENT as of 7/1/2026. ONE statewide edition — no residential/commercial split. Supersedes the 2021 IECC, which governed through 6/30/2026.; 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i); CURRENT as of 7/1/2026. Supersedes the 2021 IEBC, which governed through 6/30/2026.; NOTE — no IFC adoption: Utah Code § 15A-2-103 contains NO International Fire Code subsection at all and does not adopt any IFC edition, in any year. Syracuse's own Building Department page independently mentions IFC in its own forecast language, quoted above — that is the city's own text, not something § 15A-2-103 adopts, so no IFC entry appears among the codes listed here.; Syracuse Municipal Code Chapter 9.15 (Construction Codes, §§ 9.15.010-9.15.070) codifies adoption by reference of the building code, Uniform Plumbing Code, National Electrical Code, and Uniform Mechanical Code 'as published by' the respective national code bodies 'and currently adopted by the state of Utah,' with successive state amendments/editions incorporated automatically upon their Utah State statutory effective date — consistent with the statewide framework under Utah Code Title 15A. The live chapter also includes § 9.15.070, Adoption of the 2006 Edition of the Utah Wildland Urban Interface Code (Ord. 25-42 § 1).; Syracuse Municipal Code § 9.15.050 adopts by reference the ICC's Building Valuation Data for determining new-construction valuation, consistent with the city's Consolidated Fee Schedule building-value permit-fee tiers.. Local amendments apply — see the Syracuse overview page for the full list.
