If you are planning to add an addition to your home, or do a remodel to all or part of your home, you are required to submit for and obtain a building permit and inspections.
Requirements for Submitting a Permit Application for an Addition or Remodel
- Permit Application Form
- Two (2) copies of Construction Drawings
FOR A REMODEL see Sample Remodel Diagrams
FOR AN ADDITION include footing/foundation details, wall and roof details, etc. (see samples Typical Addition Section Diagram, Typical Addition Floor Plan, Typical Addition Floor & Roof Layout Plan). Also, include two (2) copies of your Site Plan (see sample Site Plan Diagram) showing the existing house, property lines, setbacks (contact the City Planning & Zoning Department at (801) 446-5327 for setbacks), and where on the property the addition will be placed.
a. Be sure to label the use of each room.
b. Hash mark through areas not being finished, such as unfinished storage.
c. Show all electrical outlets, lights switches, smoke/carbon monoxide detectors.
d. Show dimensions of each window, each room and of entire area being finished.
e. Show window well dimensions for all bedrooms (see Emergency Escape diagram for egress requirements).
f. Show existing areas adjacent to the addition or remodel, mark the use of the existing rooms, identify windows and doors that will be removed (engineering may be required).
g. Comply with fireblocking requirements for exterior basement walls (see Typical Fireblocking Diagram).
- If there is a secondary kitchen, kitchenette, or wet bar (separate from the main kitchen), an Occupancy Restriction Form must be filled out, signed, notarized and submitted with your plans. It is illegal in most areas of the city to have a second dwelling (apartment) in a basement. Check with the City Planning & Zoning Department at (801) 446-5323 or planning@herriman.org to find out what the restrictions are for your property.
Permit Fees are based on the square footage being finished, but are not charged until all plan reviews are completed and approved (see Fee Calculation Form).
Submit application and plans to the Building Department at the City Office Building at 13011 South Pioneer Street during our office hours of 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Remember, the office is closed on State and Federal holidays.
Plan review will take approximately 5 working days, after which we may call with corrections that will need to be made to your plans. After the plans have been approved, we will call with the amount of the permit (which pays for the reviews and all inspections which will need to be done). Checks should be made payable to Herriman City. Payments less than $500 can also be made with a Visa, Mastercard or American Express.
Additions/Remodels vary in the inspections that are required. See Required Inspections - this will give you a list of the possible inspections that may be required for your project. If you are not sure which inspections apply to your project, be sure to contact us. Call the Building Department at (801) 446-5327 at least one business day before you wish to schedule each inspection. You may ask for an hour block of time when there will be an adult to meet the inspector at the property.
