Tips

  • Ivins does not publish a distinct commercial fee schedule — the same 'Based on Valuation using 1997 Valuation Code' Building Permit line, 10% Plan Check, and 1% State Permit Tax that apply to residential permits also govern commercial permits per the city's Consolidated Fee Schedule.
  • No commercial-specific plan-review timeline is published; confirm current turnaround expectations directly with the Building/Zoning Department at (435) 634-9753.
  • CORRECTED 2026-07-21 (see this file's dedicated sign-permit entry): Ivins DOES charge a distinct Sign Permit fee ($50.00, plus $5.00 for a 45-day temporary sign) under the Consolidated Fee Schedule's 'PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT' section — a scanned/image PDF whose text is not recoverable via plain-text extraction, which is why an earlier pass on this entry concluded no distinct sign fee existed; that was confirmed wrong via direct visual/OCR review of the fee schedule (page 5 of 8). Per Ivins City Code § 16.21.104, a sign application may separately require a building permit (this file's valuation-based fee) if it involves footings, foundations, or electrical connections — see the sign-permit entry for full detail.

Ivins, Utah has 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City Code Title 14, Ch.1, and so auto-tracks statutory changes); Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(a); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(b); unaffected by the 7/1/2026 statute revision, continues in force; 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(d); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; 2024 International Mechanical Code (IMC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(e); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; 2024 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(f); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g); unaffected by the 7/1/2026 statute revision, continues in force; 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(h); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; 2024 International Existing Building Code (IEBC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(i); effective 2026-07-01, superseded the 2021 edition; 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC), residential provisions — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(n); effective 2026-07-01, superseded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).. Local amendments apply — see the Ivins overview page for the full list.
