Tips

  • Ivins charges a higher Solar Permit Fee ($400 vs. $300) when the system includes a battery energy storage apparatus.
  • Electric service in Ivins is provided by Dixie Power, a rural electric cooperative — not a city-owned utility. Coordinate net-metering interconnection directly with Dixie Power in addition to the city building permit.

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.
