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).

Enoch City Fee Schedule, Section 4.A 'Permit': 'Building permit fees are set by the Uniform Building Code. There is a one percent (1%) State of Utah surcharge added to the total building permit fee.' This section is not split by residential/commercial use type — the same base mechanism governs commercial permits.Enoch City Fee Schedule, Section 4.B 'Plan Review' publishes exactly seven line items: garages/carports 10%, remodels/additions 20%, new homes under 2,000 sq ft 30%, 2,000–3,000 sq ft 35%, over 3,000… Show full citationHide
Enoch City Fee Schedule, Section 4.B 'Plan Review' publishes exactly seven line items: garages/carports 10%, remodels/additions 20%, new homes under 2,000 sq ft 30%, 2,000–3,000 sq ft 35%, over 3,000 sq ft 40%, Special Inspections $50, resubmission of expired/closed permit 50%, and substantially identical plans 50% of original plan-review fee — none labeled commercial or tenant-improvement. No Section 4.C exists; Chapter 4 'Building Permit' has only two sections (4.A and 4.B) in the book's own table of contents. The adopting legislative record, Enoch City Council Resolution No. 2024-11-20 ('A Resolution to Amend the Enoch City Fee Schedule Regarding Building Permits - Plan Reviews', Nov. 20, 2024 agenda packet, utah.gov/pmn/files/1197349.pdf), reproduces the full 4.B table verbatim as council-adopted, with the identical seven line items and no commercial entry — the absence of a commercial/TI plan-review percentage is a confirmed legislative fact: Enoch City has never adopted one. Omitted rather than assumed to match any residential tier; this unresolved fee gap (distinct from the timeline gap below) is why this entry's confidence remains 'partial' rather than 'verified.'Review timeline

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. No distinct 'sign permit' fee line exists anywhere in the full Zoning Ordinance (rev. 5-20-2020) or the Fee Schedule.
- 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 is published by Enoch City (the Commercial Building Permit Packet, rev. 1/21/2025, 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). 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.
