3 rules for unincorporated Utah County, Utah.
Verified from official government sources
Utah law preempts local rent control under Utah Code §10-8-85.4 and §17-50-335, which bar cities and counties from capping private rental rates. Utah County, Provo, and Orem therefore have no rent control, and landlords may raise rent to market rate with proper notice under Utah Code §78B-6-802.
Utah does not require just cause for evictions. Landlords follow Utah Code §78B-6-802 (unlawful detainer) with a 3-day notice for nonpayment or lease violation, or 15-day notice for no-cause month-to-month termination. Self-help evictions like lockouts are banned under §57-22-4.5.
Provo operates a mandatory Residential Rental Licensing program under PCC Chapter 6.26, with fee discounts for landlords completing Good Landlord training. Orem has a Rental Dwelling License under OCC §22-9. Utah County unincorporated areas do not have countywide rental registration but rely on state law.
