Building Permits
The Building Permits tab at the top of the page will take you to the various permits required by the City of Yutan. Please follow the link to print off the permit application(s) you will need for your project. All fees are due before permits are issued and work can begin. You will be issued a permit to be displayed in such a way that any officials driving by can easily acknowledge it. The City of Yutan uses a third party for all building inspections, please allow extra time for permit review and 48 hours notice for inspections when possible. The City of Yutan follows the 2021 Residential Code and the 2015 ICC codes for commercial, industrial, and multi-family residential structures. No fees will be collected until the permit application has been reviewed and accepted.
