EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Cedar Hills, Utah

Cedar Hills does not publish a distinct "EV Charger" or "EVSE" fee line item. Its Fee Schedule (effective 07/01/2026) lists an "Electrical Permit (Commercial)" category priced off the Building Permit fee under Resolution 05-21-2024B, with no equivalent residential electrical-permit line shown separately from the general Building Permit. A full-text search of the current Fee Schedule found no mention of "EV," "EVSE," "electric vehicle," or "charging station." An EV charger installation in Cedar Hills would be permitted through the city's standard electrical/building permit process, priced under the Building Permit fee rather than a dedicated EV category.

Cedar Hills, Utah has adopted: 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) — REMAINS CURRENT, Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b) did not change this edition in the 7/1/2026 amendment; per Cedar Hills' official Building Permit Requirements form (revised 06/12/2025, live re-checked 2026-07-16): 'Current codes are 2021 IRC, 2021 IBC, 2021 IMC, 2021 IPC, 2020 NEC, 2018 IECC Commercial, 2018 IECC Residential, and 2021 IFGC and Utah State Amendments Title 15A.'; 2024 International Building Code (IBC), including Appendices C and J — CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a); supersedes the 2021 edition Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form still listed as of live re-check 2026-07-16.; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e); supersedes the 2021 edition Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form still listed as of live re-check 2026-07-16.; 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d); supersedes the 2021 edition Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form still listed as of live re-check 2026-07-16.; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g), unchanged by the 7/1/2026 amendment — Cedar Hills' own Building Permit Requirements form lists '2020 NEC,' which was ALREADY STALE before this code-cycle transition (the statewide-governing NEC edition has been 2023 since an earlier version of the statute). This is a pre-existing discrepancy in the city's own form, independent of the 7/1/2026 IBC/IPC/IMC/IFGC/IECC bump; reported as-published rather than corrected, per grounded-data policy.; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), single unsplit statewide edition — CURRENT as of 7/1/2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h); supersedes BOTH split editions ('2018 IECC Commercial, 2018 IECC Residential') Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form still listed as of live re-check 2026-07-16 — those 2018 figures were already stale before the 7/1/2026 transition (the prior statewide edition was 2021), compounding with the new 2024 bump.; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — CURRENT statewide as of 7/1/2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f); supersedes the 2021 edition Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form still listed as of live re-check 2026-07-16.; 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) and residential provisions of the 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) — statewide per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i)/(n); not itemized on Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form at all, added here per statute since the City's own form omits them.; Utah State Amendments, Utah Code Title 15A — per the same official Building Permit Requirements form.; NOTE (2026-07-16 re-verification): The Utah Code § 15A-2-103 version effective 7/1/2026 (superseded 1/1/2027) took effect 15 days before this re-verification. IBC/IPC/IMC/IFGC/IECC/IEBC/residential ISPSC are now 2024 statewide; IRC (2021) and NEC (2023) did NOT change. Cedar Hills' Building Permit Requirements form (5il.co/26de1, redirecting to a Cedar Hills-hosted PDF) was live re-fetched 2026-07-16 and remains marked 'Revised 6/12/2025' with NO update: it still lists 2021 IBC/IMC/IPC/IFGC, 2020 NEC, and split 2018 IECC. The NEC (2020, should be 2023) and IECC (2018, should now be a single 2024 edition) entries were already stale under the PRE-7/1/2026 version of the statute — this form has not tracked Utah's construction-code cycle for multiple revisions. No newer Cedar Hills-specific code-adoption publication was found. The Utah Code § 15A-2-103 citation has been added to the sources array below, pointing to the current in-force version link.. Local amendments apply — see the Cedar Hills overview page for the full list.
