Weber County, UT Special Events & Permits: Parade Permits (2026)

' Because a parade typically moves along a county road, § 38-1-6 requires the application to include a route plan or plat showing any barricades or perimeter fencing, plus security and law enforcement response plans, and the applicant must circulate the application to the sheriff's office and the county public works division for traffic-impact review. Section 38-1-7 lets the sheriff's office charge an additional fee to cover professional peace officers when a parade requires traffic control or police protection, calculated from the number of officers and support equipment needed based on the event's date, time, location, length, anticipated traffic, and estimated participants; that fee must be paid before the permit issues.

Section 38-1-8 requires the completed application at least 30 calendar days before the parade date, and the county has no authority to permit any part of a parade route that crosses into an incorporated city or across the county line, so organizers of a route spanning a municipality must separately clear that jurisdiction. Section 38-1-9 lets a denied applicant appeal in writing to the board of county commissioners within seven calendar days of the denial.
