Change of Use Permit (Conditional Use Application) / Change of Occupancy in Holladay, Utah

Unlike EV chargers, solar, and standalone signage, Holladay publishes a distinct, governing dollar figure for a change of use: the city's Consolidated Fee Schedule (Holladay City Code § 3.35.070, 'Conditional Use Permit Application') itemizes 'Change of use... $100.00' as its own line item, separate from the Residential use, Commercial/industrial, Home occupation, Conditional use amendment, and Mobile store line items in the same section (cms3.revize.com/revize/cityofholladay/fee%20schedule.pdf, Section 3.35.070). This $100 fee applies where a proposed change of use requires Planning Commission conditional-use review and approval under Holladay City Code Title 13 (Land Use and Development), administered by the Planning and Zoning Division — a distinct process and department from the Building Division's building-permit review. Separately, the city's official Business Licensing page states that 'if you have a change of location to a new building or change of occupancy at a building, the proper building permits must be obtained and approved before the application for a business license may be obtained and granted' — meaning a change of occupancy independently triggers the standard Building Division commercial-building or tenant-improvement permit review (see those entries) before a business license can issue. A further, separate $35 business-license fee ('New location transfer' per the fee schedule's General Business License Fee Schedule, § 3.35.110; called the 'Change of Location Form' fee on the Business Licensing page) applies to updating the business license record itself and is paid to Economic Development, not the Building or Planning Division.

When you need this permit

  • Planning Commission conditional-use review and approval under Holladay City Code Title 13, where the proposed new use of a property is not permitted outright in the applicable zone — per the Consolidated Fee Schedule's 'Change of use' line item under § 3.35.070 (Conditional Use Permit Application)
  • Public notice mailed to surrounding neighbors and public comment heard at a Planning Commission meeting, per the city's official Planning and Zoning Division page; the Commission may approve with mitigating conditions or deny if anticipated detrimental effects cannot be mitigated to city standards
  • Separately and in addition: per the city's official Business Licensing page, any change of location to a new building or change of occupancy at a building requires the proper building permits (commercial building or tenant-improvement permit, reviewed by the Building Division) to be obtained and approved BEFORE a business license application can be granted
  • A business license 'New location transfer' (Change of Location Form) must also be filed with Economic Development to update the license record when a business changes location or occupancy — a separate administrative step from both the Planning Commission conditional-use review and the Building Division permit

    Tips

    • Holladay's $100 'Change of use' fee (Consolidated Fee Schedule § 3.35.070) is a Planning Commission conditional-use application fee, administered by the Planning and Zoning Division — a separate department, process, and fee from the Building Division's building-permit review.
    • A change of occupancy at a building independently requires 'the proper building permits' (reviewed by the Building Division) to be obtained and approved before a business license can be granted, per the city's official Business Licensing page — budget for the possibility of needing both the $100 Planning Commission fee AND a separate Building Division commercial/TI permit fee, depending on the specific change.
    • A distinct $35 'New location transfer' / 'Change of Location Form' fee also applies to update the business license record itself when a business changes location or occupancy — paid to Economic Development, not Planning or Building.
    • No specific review-timeline figure is published for the Planning Commission's change-of-use/conditional-use decision — contact the Planning Division (801-527-3890 / planning@holladayut.gov) directly, and confirm which application(s) among Planning's conditional-use process, the Building Division's permit process, and Economic Development's license-transfer process actually apply to your specific change before starting.

A separate $35 'New location transfer' fee additionally applies to update the business license record itself.
