Commercial Tenant Improvement / Tenant Finish Permit in Midvale, Utah

Required for commercial remodel and tenant-improvement work in Midvale, billed under the same valuation-based Building Permit Fees table as new commercial construction (Ordinance 2026-O-14). The city's Building & Safety page references a separate 'Remodel Construction Completion Checklist (Certificate of Occupancy)' for tenant-improvement/remodel closeout, but the linked PDF returned HTTP 404 on 2026-07-19 — the general Commercial Construction Completion Checklist requirements are used here as the closest verified equivalent. Confidence is 'partial' because that specific TI closeout checklist could not be directly verified.
