Change of Use (Conditional C-1/C-2 Use Application) in Richfield, Utah
Richfield City's Zoning Ordinance (Title 17) explicitly codifies 'Change of Use' as its own named category in the City's Table of Uses (Table 31-1 for Residential Districts, Table 31-2 for Non-Residential Districts) — distinct from new construction. Six specific Change of Use entries are listed (C-1 Use and C-2 Use, each split into 'no site plan changes or no new construction' vs. 'site plan changes or new construction', plus a parallel pair for Permitted (P) Uses), each triggering the same Conditional (C-1 or C-2) Use Application process used for other conditional uses. Notably, the City's own official Conditional Use Application form (Revised 11/2024) states directly under 'Required Fees': 'Note: Fee is not required' — Richfield does not charge a fee for the C-1/C-2 process that a change of use runs through. An archived copy of the identical form from 2025-10-29 confirms this $0.00 status is stable (not a stale form), and it does not conflict with the Zoning Ordinance's separate statement that fees are 'established by the Council in the City's Consolidated Fee Schedule' — that language only names the fee-setting authority, which has evidently set this application type's fee at zero.

When you need this permit
- A change from an existing approved use to a new use within the same C-1, C-2, or P use category, per Richfield City Code Table 31-1 (Residential) / Table 31-2 (Non-Residential), Chapter 17.12
- Determination of whether the change of use proposes 'no site plan changes or no new construction' or 'site plan changes or new construction' -- the Table of Uses lists these as two separate line items for each use type, though both route through the same C-1/C-2 application per the City's Conditional Use Application packet
- A complete Conditional (C-1 or C-2) Use Application, including a detailed site plan (or a determination by the Zoning Administrator that one is not required for a no-construction change), submitted to the Zoning Administrator at 75 E Center Street, Richfield, UT 84701
- Owner consent if the applicant is not the fee title owner of the subject property

Richfield City's official Conditional (C-1/C-2) Use Application Packet (richfieldut.gov, Revised 11/24) states in the 'IMPORTANT INFORMATION' box on the application page itself: 'REQUIRED FEES -- Note: Fee is not required.' This coexists with the Zoning Ordinance's general delegation language (17.09.140, repeated in the C-1/C-2 use section) that fees for C-1/C-2 Use Applications are 'established by the Council in the City's Consolidated Fee Schedule.' Two points reconcile them. First, an archived capture of this exact application packet from 2025-10-29 (web.archive.org/web/20251029035525/https://richfieldut.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/CONDITIONAL-USE-APPLICATION.pdf) contains the identical 'REQUIRED FEES... Note: Fee is not required' statement -- this is not a one-off typo but a stable, Council-published position holding for at least 9 months. Second, no standalone, dollar-itemized Consolidated Fee Schedule document is publicly posted online -- not on richfieldut.gov or richfieldcity.com, not among Utah Public Notice Website (utah.gov/pmn) filings under Richfield City's public body, and not on the Richfield City Forms & Applications page -- only an unrelated Impact Fees PDF and non-fee ordinances/resolutions. Because the ordinance's delegation language does not itself state a nonzero figure (it only names the fee schedule as the fee-setting authority), and the City's own current, dated application form is the most specific and directly-quotable statement of that schedule's actual content for this permit type, the $0.00 figure from the form is treated as the correct, current, governing fee rather than an unresolved conflict -- the Council is free to set a $0 line item in its own fee schedule, and the ordinance text does not contradict that.Review timeline

Tips
- Richfield is one of the only jurisdictions checked in this batch where 'Change of Use' is an explicitly-named, standalone line item in the zoning code's own Table of Uses, rather than something inferred from a general building-permit definition -- six separate Change of Use entries exist (C-1, C-2, and P Use, each split by whether site plan changes/new construction are proposed).
- The C-1 (Planning Commission decides) and C-2 (City Council decides, after a Planning Commission recommendation) tracks use different final decision-makers -- check which use classification applies to your specific business/use in Table 31-1 or 31-2 before applying.
- The official application form's 'Fee is not required' statement was independently corroborated by a Wayback Machine capture of the same document from 2025-10-29 -- the same '$0' fee status has held for at least 9 months, so this reflects a stable, deliberate City policy rather than an out-of-date form.
- This is a different, more specific finding than the C-1/C-2 Development-track Conditional Use Permit used for genuinely new construction/development uses -- Richfield's Table of Uses cross-references the SAME C-1/C-2 application packet for both, so use the packet's site plan requirements as a guide to how much documentation your specific change-of-use scenario will need.
