Commercial Building Permit in Enoch City, Utah

Required for new commercial construction in Enoch City. Enoch City publishes a dedicated Commercial Building Permit Packet (rev. 1-21-2025), distinct from its residential and 'Other' (additions/remodels) packets, requiring zoning administrator site-plan sign-off before a building permit can be issued. The base fee follows the same Uniform Building Code valuation table plus 1% state surcharge used for residential permits; no commercial-specific plan-review percentage tier is published in Fee Schedule Section 4.B (which lists only garage/carport, remodel/addition, and new-home-by-size tiers).

Tips

  • Enoch City requires zoning administrator sign-off on the commercial site plan (ADA compliance, parking, signage, landscaping) BEFORE a building permit can be issued — a distinct pre-permit step not required on the residential packet.
  • Enoch's Fee Schedule Section 4.B (Plan Review) publishes percentage tiers only for garages/carports, remodels/additions, and new homes by size — no commercial-specific percentage is published, so confirm the applicable plan-review rate directly with the Building Department, (435) 586-1119, before budgeting a commercial project.
  • A dumpster and sanitary facilities are required at every construction site per Ordinance 2006-01-18-A, the same requirement documented for residential construction.
  • Enoch City has no standalone sign-permit process or fee: signage is regulated directly by the Zoning Ordinance's per-district standards (e.g. Chapter 18-7 for Commercial Zones caps business signs at 20% of the building front veneer, and separately limits development, civic, real estate, freestanding, and monument signs by square footage) and is reviewed as part of the commercial site plan sign-off described above. The one sign type the ordinance explicitly calls out as needing a permit is off-premise/billboard signage along the I-15 corridor, which 'require[s] a building permit from the building department' (Zoning Ordinance § 18-7.3.F) — billed under the same UBC-valuation Building Permit Fee as any other building permit, with no separate sign fee published. Checked the full Zoning Ordinance (rev. 5-20-2020) and Fee Schedule directly — no distinct 'sign permit' fee line exists anywhere in either document.
  • Enoch City contracts with the Cedar City Fire Department for fire protection and Wildland Fire Interface Management — per Enoch City's own official Fire Department page (enochcityut.gov/fire-department.html): 'Enoch City contracts with Cedar City Fire Department for fire protection and Wildland Fire Interface Management.' No distinct fire sprinkler or fire alarm permit fee, application, or plan-review line item was found published by Enoch City (checked the Commercial Building Permit Packet, rev. 1/21/2025, which asks only whether a fire sprinkler/alarm system exists via checkbox, with no associated fee) or by Cedar City's own Consolidated Fee Schedule (which likewise has no distinct fire sprinkler/alarm fee — see Cedar City's own jurisdiction entry). Fire suppression/alarm system work in Enoch commercial construction appears to be reviewed as part of the general commercial plan submittal rather than through a separate fee-bearing permit — confirm directly with the Enoch City Building Department, (435) 586-1119, before budgeting a project requiring sprinklers or alarms.

Enoch City, Utah has adopted: Uniform Building Code (UBC) valuation table — Enoch City's own Fee Schedule (hosting.civiclinq.com/enochcity/books/enoch-city-fee-schedule/4.A) states: 'Building permit fees are set by the Uniform Building Code.' This is the same 1997 UBC Table 1-A valuation-fee structure referenced by other small Utah cities in this corpus (e.g. Provo); Enoch's own published fee-schedule language uses 'Uniform Building Code' rather than citing a specific IBC/IRC edition year.; Statewide baseline per Utah Code § 15A-2-103: Utah's currently adopted statewide construction codes — the 2024 IBC (incl. Appendices C and J), 2024 IPC, 2024 IMC, 2024 IFGC, 2024 IECC, and 2024 IEBC (all in force since July 1, 2026, superseding the 2021 editions), alongside the unchanged 2021 IRC and 2023 NEC — apply to Enoch City by default absent a documented independent city-level code-adoption ordinance; Enoch City's own website does not publish a distinct 'Current Adopted Codes' page listing specific ICC edition years (unlike Cedar City's dedicated codes page), so the state baseline is reported here rather than invented city-specific edition years.. Local amendments apply — see the Enoch City overview page for the full list.

Per Enoch City's Commercial Building Permit Packet (rev. 1-21-2025), applicants must submit a zoning-administrator-approved site plan (ADA compliance, parking, signage, landscaping), a digital plan set (site, civil, architectural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical), a geotechnical datasheet, a Utah Prairie Dog Clearance, signed energy code compliance documentation, and a septic permit if applicable. The base Building Permit Fee follows the Uniform Building Code valuation table plus a 1% state surcharge; no commercial-specific plan-review percentage is published in the city's Fee Schedule.
