If you are planning to construct a basement walkout, you are required to submit for and obtain a building permit and have inspections.
Please be aware that dumpsters and construction materials must not create an obstruction to the public.
Requirements for submitting a permit application for a basement walkout
1. Fill out Permit Application Form.
2. Construction Plans (see sample Walkout Plans). Many projects of this type will require wet stamped (original stamped) Engineering from a Utah State Licensed Engineer regarding cutting a foundation for a door.
3. Site Plan (see sample Site Plan diagram) showing where on the property walkout is located, with the width and length dimensions shown. Also show the roof structure over the walkout with its dimensions, if any. Show on the sketch of the house where the garage is located, and show the driveway.
4. Floor layout of room(s) affected by the walkout (see Typical Addition Floor Plan).
