Sign Permit in Ivins, Utah

Ivins City charges a distinct Sign Permit fee, separate from the general Building Permit fee: $50.00 per the Consolidated Fee Schedule (Ordinance No. 2024-12, effective 07/01/2024, 'PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT' section), plus a $5.00 '45 Day Temporary Sign Permit' for temporary signage (fee schedule page 5 of 8).

Tips

  • 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 sign application may separately trigger the valuation-based Building Permit fee (plus 10% Plan Check and 1% State Permit Tax) if the sign involves footings, foundations, or electrical connections, per Ivins City Code § 16.21.104 — budget for both fee tracks if applicable.
  • The specific application class (Class I through V) required for a sign depends on the use it is associated with, per § 16.21.102 — confirm the correct class and any site-plan/drawing requirements with the Building/Zoning Department, (435) 634-9753, before submitting.

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, the city's code tracks the state editions automatically, with no separate city-document lag expected.. Local amendments apply — see the Ivins overview page for the full list.

The type of application required for a sign is the same class of use application (Class I through V) that would be required to establish the use the sign is associated with, per Ivins City Code § 16.21.102 — a sign for an already-permitted use is typically processed under a Class I application.
