Tips

  • Pleasant View's Building Department office hours are Mon–Thu 8:00 AM–5:00 PM and Fri 8:00 AM–12:00 PM (half-day Friday), unlike some neighboring Weber County cities that close entirely on Friday.
  • Physical building inspections are contracted to Sunrise Engineering (schedule at 1-800-560-6151), while water/sewer lateral inspections are scheduled directly with the City Office (801-782-8529) — two different contacts depending on inspection type.
  • All Building Permits are submitted electronically through the City Inspect portal — there is no paper/in-person application process described on the city's official Permits page.
  • Permits stay open only if inspections and work occur at least every 6 months; work must commence within 6 months of issuance or the permit lapses, per the city's official Permits page.
  • The city's Consolidated Fee Schedule labels its valuation fee table 'Appendix L, 2015 IRC' even though Utah's statewide code has since moved to the 2021 I-Code cycle — this is stale labeling on a still-current fee table, not evidence of an outdated adopted code.
