Change of Use / Certificate of Occupancy in Ivins, Utah
Ivins City has no standalone 'Change of Use Permit' application or fee. Ivins City Code § 16.26.105 ('Certificates of Occupancy') requires a certificate of occupancy before any building or structure, or part thereof, may be used or occupied, and expressly extends this requirement to cases where 'no building permit is required' so long as 'the use conforms to the regulations of all land use ordinances' — meaning a use change with no construction still requires city sign-off. In practice, per the city's official Commercial Business License Application (IC Form 6002 [2024-07-01]), any new or changed commercial occupancy is screened through the Commercial Business License process: the Building Department reviews 'a floor plan identifying the proposed uses for each area/room' as part of the license application, which is billed at the same $75.00 Commercial Business License filing fee that governs any new commercial license, per the Consolidated Fee Schedule (Ordinance No. 2024-12).

When you need this permit
- A certificate of occupancy is required before any building or structure, or part thereof, may be used or occupied — including when only the use changes and no building permit is required — per Ivins City Code § 16.26.105
- Commercial Business License Application (IC Form 6002) required for any business operating from a commercial location in Ivins, including a new tenant or changed use in an existing commercial space
- Building Department review of a floor plan identifying the proposed use for each area/room, per the Commercial Business License Application's instructions
- Copy of any proposed signage submitted with the Business License application
- Public Safety Department review of hazardous processes or materials and whether additional permits (e.g., food handlers) are required
- Where the change of use requires construction, the work is processed and billed under this file's commercial-building-permit or commercial-tenant-improvement-permit entries instead of a separate change-of-use fee

Tips
- Ivins has no standalone Change of Use or Certificate of Occupancy application or fee — it is folded into the Commercial Business License process (Building Department floor-plan/signage review plus Public Safety Department hazardous-materials review), billed at the same $75.00 filing fee as any new commercial license.
- Ivins City Code § 16.26.105 makes clear that a certificate of occupancy is legally required for a use change even when no construction or building permit is involved — do not assume 'no construction' means 'no city sign-off' is needed.
- If the new use requires physical alteration, budget separately for this file's Commercial Building Permit or Commercial Tenant Improvement Permit entries — the valuation-based Building Permit Fee, 10% Plan Check, and 1% State Permit Tax apply on top of the Business License filing fee.
