This is PermitBase’s published record for Ivins as of 2026-07-19. It has since been superseded — see the current record. A historical record reflects what PermitBase had verified at that time; it may not capture a real-world change the jurisdiction had made but PermitBase had not yet verified, and it includes any errors we later corrected. Snapshots are never edited retroactively.

Codes adopted

2024 International Building Code (IBC) — adopted via Ivins City Ordinance No. 2025-08 amending Title 14 'Buildings and Construction' (which adopts the state construction code by reference, per Ivins City Code Title 14, Ch.1, and so auto-tracks statutory changes); Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition2021 International Residential Code (IRC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b); unaffected by the 7/1/2026 statute revision, continues in force2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g); unaffected by the 7/1/2026 statute revision, continues in force2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC), residential provisions — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(n); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; Ivins charges a distinct Pool Permit Fee ($300, per its Consolidated Fee Schedule)NOTE: Effective July 1, 2026 (now in force) — 2024 editions of IBC, IPC, IMC, IFGC, IECC, IEBC, and ISPSC replaced the 2021 editions per Utah Code § 15A-2-103 (version effective 7/1/2026, superseded 1/1/2027; text independently re-verified live at le.utah.gov 2026-07-16). The 2021 IRC and 2023 NEC were unaffected and remain in force. Because Ivins Ordinance No. 2025-08 adopts the state code by reference rather than restating specific editions, Ivins is not expected to have a separate city-document lag of the kind seen in some sibling cities — this was not independently re-verified against the amlegal-hosted Ivins Code text this session (that site's full ordinance text is not renderable via automated fetch, per the localAmendments entry above).
