EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Monticello, Utah

Monticello's Consolidated Fee Schedule (as of 04/14/2026, Ordinance 2026-06) does not publish a distinct EV-charger fee line item, and the city has no general electrical-permit category — only a single valuation-based Building Permit Fee and a flat $65.00 Building Inspection Fee. A full-text search of the fee schedule found zero mentions of 'EV,' 'electric vehicle,' 'charging station,' 'EVSE,' or a standalone electrical-trade fee. The city has not published explicit confirmation of how EV charger installs are billed, so this entry is marked partial confidence.
