• Bonding and insurance is required in order for a permit to be issued, see our License, Insurance and Bond information page for more information.
• All work shall conform to Ogden City's Engineering Standards and Amendments for Public Works Projects, 2013 Edition (PDF).
• Permits are null and void if work has not begun 120 days after issuance.
• A copy of all necessary permits shall be available onsite at all times (failure to have a permit in hand will result in stoppage of work).
