checklist
What
work requires a building permit?
No building shall be erected, constructed,
enlarged, altered, repaired, moved, improved, moved, converted,
or demolished unless a permit for each project has been
obtained from the Sevier County Building Department.
Failure
to obtain the necessary permit prior to beginning work will
result in an investigation fee being added to the cost of
the permit fee. The investigation fee will be the same as
the permit fee, and you will still be charged for the permit
(Double Fee).

1.
Submit two sets of plans to the Sevier County Building Department
for review at least two weeks prior to wanting to start
the project.
2.
There is a $200 deposit required for all commercial
plans submitted for the plan review process. The remainder
will be collected with the building permit fee.

If building within city limits, you must have approval from
the local zoning board prior to submitting your building
permit. This is shown to us by an authorized signature on
the zoning part of our permit.

If you are building in county limits, you must have a signature
sheet completed to turn in with your building permit. This
sheet needs the signatures of authorized Utah Power &
Light personnel, authorized Utah Division of Water Rights
personnel, and Central Utah Health Department personnel. (The
signatures of the building inspector and zoning administrator
will be provided by our office if permitted.)

of this jurisdiction to verify compliance with any applicable
laws under our jurisdiction. If it is determined that the
work described in an application for a permit and the plans,
specs, and other data filed therewith conform to the requirements
of the Uniform Building Code and other laws and ordinances,
and the fees have been paid, the building official shall issue
a permit therefore to the applicant.
