EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Coalville, Utah

Coalville City does not publish a distinct "EV Charger" or "EVSE" fee line item. Its Fee Schedule (Resolution 2025-1) prices electrical permits by structure type and square footage rather than by equipment: a flat $10 Permit Issuance Fee plus a System Fee of $0.035 per square foot for residential structures (per the IRC), or the same rate for commercial structures (per the National Electric Code). A full-text search of the current fee schedule found no mention of "EV," "EVSE," "electric vehicle," or "charging station." Because the published System Fee is scaled to overall structure square footage rather than scope of electrical work, it is not confirmed how a single added EV-charger circuit would be billed relative to a full-structure electrical permit; the $10 flat Permit Issuance Fee is the only clearly applicable minimum figure.
