Fire Sprinkler System Permit in Roosevelt, Utah

Roosevelt City Fire Department, not the Roosevelt City Building Department, is the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) for fire sprinkler systems in Roosevelt. Roosevelt City has no dedicated fire sprinkler/alarm page on its own website (rooseveltcity.gov), so this entry is primarily sourced from the industry-maintained "Authorities Having Jurisdiction" reference list (dated 2026-Apr-01) used by Utah fire protection contractors, which lists Roosevelt Fire Dept's specific submittal requirements. Re-chased 2026-07-20: this is independently corroborated by Roosevelt City's own official Consolidated Fee Schedule (Resolution 2024-322, adopted by the City Council June 4, 2024, rooseveltcity.gov/DocumentCenter/View/3162), which contains a dedicated "FIRE DEPARTMENT FEE SCHEDULE" section -- verified by direct PDF text extraction -- listing only escalating False Alarm / Nuisance Fire Alarm Call fees ($100 for a 3rd call in a year, rising to $150 + $25/call thereafter). The City's own current fee resolution contains no fire sprinkler system, fire alarm installation, or fire protection plan-review fee line item of any kind, which is consistent with (and a first-party confirmation of) the third-party AHJ list's description that Roosevelt Fire Dept charges no permit or plan-review fee for these systems.

    Fee schedule

    Fire Sprinkler Permit / Plan Review FeePer the "Authorities Having Jurisdiction" reference list (2026-Apr-01 revision), the entry for "Roosevelt Fire Dept" (contact Roger Eschler, 255 South State, Roosevelt UT 84066, (435) 722-7220) states: "Wants to witness trip. No drawings or permit." This differs from most other Utah AHJs in this dataset, which require plan submittal, third-party review, and/or a permit fee. Independently corroborated 2026-07-20 against Roosevelt City's own official Consolidated Fee Schedule (Resolution 2024-322, adopted 2024-06-04, rooseveltcity.gov/DocumentCenter/View/3162/2022-307-Amending-the-Consolidated-Fee-Schedule) -- verified by direct PDF text extraction, this is the City's current, Council-adopted fee resolution and it contains a "FIRE DEPARTMENT FEE SCHEDULE" section, but that section covers only escalating False Alarm/Nuisance Fire Alarm Call penalty fees, with no fire sprinkler system, fire alarm installation, or fire-protection plan-review fee line item anywhere in the document. This is first-party confirmation (not just the third-party AHJ list) that Roosevelt does not charge a sprinkler/alarm permit or plan-review fee.

    Tips

    • Unlike most other jurisdictions in this dataset, Roosevelt Fire Department does not require a fire sprinkler permit application or plan drawings — only witnessing of the trip test, per the industry-maintained Authorities Having Jurisdiction reference list (2026-Apr-01).
    • Roosevelt City's own official Consolidated Fee Schedule (Resolution 2024-322, adopted 2024-06-04) independently confirms this: its Fire Department Fee Schedule section lists only false-alarm penalty fees, with no fire sprinkler or fire alarm permit/plan-review fee line item -- consistent with the third-party AHJ list's description of a no-permit, no-drawings process.
    • No corresponding fire alarm system entry was found in any source reviewed — Roosevelt Fire Department's AHJ listing covers only fire sprinkler trip testing.
