3.11.040 - Building, Planning, and Zoning.#
A.
Building Permits and Fees. Total Building Permit Fees (Building Fee + Plan Check Fee + State Surcharge Fee) are calculated based upon the most current International Code Council Building Valuation Data (ICCBVD), updated semi-annually. The Building Permit Fee is the sum of the applicable Building Fee (B), Plan Check Fee (P) and State Surcharge Fee (Υ). The Building Fee (B), is calculated by multiplying the Gross ICCBVD Valuation (GIV) by the local multiplier (µ). The Plan Check Fee (P) is calculated by multiplying the Building Fee (B) by .65. The State Surcharge Fee (Υ) is calculated by multiplying the Building Fee (B) by .01.
Building Permit Fee = B + P + Y
B = µ × GIV
P = B × .65
Υ = B × .01
GIV = Σ [(gross square footage of each ICCBVD building valuation type)(ICCBVD value for that building valuation type) + (gross square footage of that ICCBVD building valuation type)(ICCBVD value of that building valuation type) + ... (same calculation for gross square footage of each separate building valuation type)]
Building Fees and Plan Check Fees entitle the applicant to an initial review and two subsequent reviews without additional charge. Plan Check Fees are due at the time of building permit application. Building Fees and State Surcharge Fee are due prior to issuance of permit. All fees are non-refundable.
Certain routine or simple projects are eligible for an over-counter flat fee, in lieu of a calculated fee, as detailed in the chart below.

The "resident" rate applies only in cases in which: (1) a person residing in the City of South Salt Lake schedules a facility for a private, personal, or family event; or (2) a business located in South Salt Lake schedules a facility for an employee social event. A person residing in the City or a business licensed in the City scheduling a facility for an entity/organization/institute event or function or for a business enterprise shall pay the "standard" rate.
B.
Non-profit Rate. The "non-profit" rate applies only in cases where a non-profit entity schedules a facility for purposes that do not include fundraising or revenue generation for the entity. Any non-profit entity that schedules a facility for purposes that include fundraising shall pay the "standard" rate. Collecting a participation fee from those attending an event for the purpose of covering the cost of the event shall not be considered fundraising. Proof of non-profit 501(c)(3) status must be provided, such as a certificate issued by the state or the United States. Government agencies may receive the "non-profit" rate, upon request.
C.
Deposits. Deposits must be paid at the time of booking and may be refunded subject to a post-event inspection. The City may retain all or part of a deposit when the event causes damage to property, additional costs for clean up or property restoration. In cases in which the deposit does not cover damage, additional labor, or other costs resulting from the event the entity renting the facility shall reimburse the City for all of the City's costs related to the repair and restoration of the damaged facility. If the event occupies the facility beyond the scheduled time, the deposit will be used to pay for additional time, in one-hour increments.

E.
Security Service Fee. For large or high-risk events, or for large group rentals during evening hours after 5 p.m. and weekends, security shall be required.

F.
After Hours Fee. Any person or organization that receives approval to use facilities under this Section after normal hours of operation shall pay an additional, non-refundable fee as outlined in this Title. An offer by an organization or person to pay this additional fee does not obligate the City to schedule after hours events.
G.
Cancellation Fee: Events that are cancelled less than 14 days prior to rental date are subject to cancellation charge equal to booking deposit paid. Bookings not paid in full 14 days prior to rental date are subject to cancellation and cancellation charge.
