Solar / Solar PV Installation Permit in Lindon, Utah

Lindon requires a solar / solar pv installation permit for: Building permit application submitted through Lindon's online CivicReview portal, same as other 'Other Residential' permit types (no solar-specific application form is published); Electrical plan showing PV system components (panels, inverter(s), disconnects, conductor sizing) sufficient for the Building Department's standard electrical review, since Lindon has no separate solar checklist to define scope-specific submittal requirements; Site plan showing panel/array location for roof-mounted systems, or location and setbacks for ground-mounted arrays; Utility interconnection agreement with Rocky Mountain Power for grid-tied systems — coordinated directly with the utility, (888) 221-7070, separately from the city building permit, consistent with how Lindon handles other utility-coordinated electrical work (temporary/permanent power). If your project isn't listed, confirm with Lindon City Building Department (Community Development) at (801) 785-7687 before starting work.

The Building Permit Application Fee is a flat $100.00 under the 'Other Residential' category, which explicitly lists solar in its fee-schedule parenthetical. The underlying Building Permit Fee is valuation-based (1997 UBC Table 1-A) and the Plan Review Fee is 25% of the permit fee for residential projects. A $2,500 refundable Public Improvement Repair Assurance bond may also apply, though solar is not explicitly named in that bond's category — confirm with the Building Department.

Lindon does not publish a plan-review timeline for this permit. Contact Lindon City Building Department (Community Development) at (801) 785-7687 for current turnaround.

No Lindon-specific code-edition statement was found on lindon.gov's Building & Inspection page, Building Department Forms & Applications page, or in the current Fee Schedule; Lindon has not published a local amendment opting out of the statewide code, so the statutory statewide edition is used here rather than invented city-specific text.; 2024 International Building Code (IBC), as amended by the State of Utah — effective statewide July 1, 2026 per Utah Code § 15A-2-103 (2026 General Session update); no Lindon-specific IBC edition statement found on the city's own site.; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — adopted statewide under Utah Code § 15A-2-103; no Lindon-specific NEC edition statement found on the city's own site.; 2015 International Plumbing Code (IPC), Table 403.1 — cited by name in Lindon City's own current Fee Schedule (Sewer Utility Fee and Water Utility Fee sections: 'Based on Table 403.1 in 2015 International Plumbing Code as currently adopted or as may be amended'), effective 07/01/2026 fee schedule. This is Lindon's own published reference to a specific plumbing-code edition/table used for utility base-rate sizing, distinct from the statewide construction-code IPC edition.; Other 2024 International Codes (IMC, IEBC, IECC) — adopted statewide alongside the 2024 IBC per Utah Code § 15A-2-103, effective July 1, 2026; not individually itemized by name on Lindon's own Building & Inspection page..
