EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Mapleton, Utah

Mapleton does not publish a distinct EV-charger or general electrical-permit fee line item. Per the city's official FAQ, a building permit is explicitly required to 'erect, install, enlarge, repair, move, remove, convert or replace any electrical... system' — which covers EV charger/EVSE installation. Mapleton's Community Development Fee Schedule prices all such work not otherwise itemized (e.g., Solar/Wind, Basement Finish) under the general 'Building Permit Major' line: IBC valuation multiplied by a 0.005 factor.

Tips

  • Mapleton has no distinct EV charger or general electrical-permit category — a permit is still required per the city's official FAQ ('erect, install... any electrical... system'), billed under the valuation-based Building Permit Major fee (0.5% of IBC valuation).
  • Unlike Solar/Wind installs (flat $165) or Basement Finish (flat $300), EV chargers have no dedicated flat-fee category, so the general valuation-based fee applies.
