Fire Sprinkler & Fire Alarm Permit in Pleasant Grove, Utah

Pleasant Grove Fire Department, led by City Fire Marshal Battalion Chief Jake Larsen, enforces the fire code and reviews fire protection system plans for new construction. The city does not perform fire sprinkler and alarm plan review in house: submit plans to one of the city's approved third-party fire engineering reviewers for review and stamping, then route them to the Fire Marshal's office for final approval. Budget the third-party review fee and its lead time separately.

Pleasant Grove's own Building Division page (pgcityutah.gov/departments/community_development/building.php) still displays the pre-7/1/2026 edition list; State law governs regardless of the page's lag; each line below states current law first, then the page's as-published (stale) text.; 2024 International Building Code (IBC), including Appendices C and J — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a), effective 7/1/2026.

Pleasant Grove's own Building Division page still lists '2020 National Electrical Code (NEC)' (live re-check 2026-07-16) — a PRE-EXISTING discrepancy that predates and is unrelated to the 2026-07-01 code-cycle flip, of the same kind separately documented for American Fork's Solar checklist and Provo's Building FAQ. Reported here as-published rather than corrected, per grounded-data policy of not inventing a fact the city's own source does not state.; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), one statewide edition (no residential/commercial split) — per Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h), effective 7/1/2026.

Not mentioned anywhere on Pleasant Grove's Building Division page as of live re-check 2026-07-16; added here as a statute-sourced omission (applies statewide regardless of city publication), not fabricated.; No International Fire Code (IFC) entry: § 15A-2-103 does not adopt the IFC — the IFC is separately governed under Title 15A Chapter 5, outside the scope of this section. Pleasant Grove's Building Division page does not list an IFC edition either, so there is no mis-citation to correct here..
