Notice 08-26-2026 : Welcome to a Whole New Way to Connect! Our updated website makes finding town information easier than ever.

Whether you are building a new home, planning a business, or making improvements to an existing property, the Town of Brian Head is here to help guide you through the building and development process. Our goal is to make the process as clear, predictable, and welcoming as possible while protecting the unique character and natural beauty of our mountain community. From initial planning through permitting and construction, we encourage property owners and applicants to connect with Town staff early and often so we can help answer questions, identify requirements, and provide the information you need to move your project forward successfully.

Permit Process

Permits are required in Brian Head for every new construction, addition or remodel project in Brian Head. This includes Tree Removal, Grading, changing your roof or painting the exterior of your home or business (minor alteration) all the way up to an addition on your existing building or new construction for a home or business. The links below offer a description of the permits that we issue, and they will help you fill out the applications for the permits on City Inspect.

City Inspect is an on-line program that helps the Town, landowner and the contractors communicate during the permit, building and development process. Owner or Builder will apply for their permit and upload information that is pertinent to the improvements for their project on City Inspect. Furthermore, all requests, document uploads and approvals will be made through City Inspect.
