APPRAISAL

Administrative Historical

This retention is based on the administrative needs expressed by the city. Building plans are only reviewed by a building inspector to guarantee that structures meet local building codes. They need only be kept 90 days after the end of construction in accordance with the provisions of the Uniform Building Code 1987, p. 303 which has been adopted by statute (UCA 58-50-17). Commercial building plans will be sampled as an example of commercial buildings being built in Bluffdale.
