About each permit

WMHD Food Worker Permit

Anyone handling food at a restaurant, coffee shop, food truck, or childcare kitchen anywhere in Weber County needs a Food Worker permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department, priced under the 2026 fee schedule at $25.00 per person ($15.00 state fee plus $10.00 WMHD training); a duplicate card is $5.00. WMHD's own Inspector Jargon Glossary states that food handling specifically in a child care or pre-school setting instead requires a separate Child Care and Pre-school Food Handler card, distinct from this general $25.00 card, so a childcare-kitchen worker should confirm with WMHD which specific card applies to their role. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.

WMHD Food Establishment Plan Review

Before building, extensively remodeling, or changing ownership of a food establishment anywhere in Weber County, the Weber-Morgan Health Department requires a plan review, priced under the 2026 fee schedule (effective July 1, 2026) by risk category: Risk 1 $425.00, Risk 2 $675.00, Risk 3 $1,050.00, and Risk 4 $1,200.00; an onsite consultation or small remodel is $100.00, and a change-of-ownership review is $230.00. WMHD's own Inspector Jargon Glossary defines 'food establishment' to include, by name, a 'child care center,' which is why a childcare centre's kitchen falls under this same plan-review scheme in addition to the separate WMHD Day Care/Group Home inspection; the specific risk-category fee for a given childcare kitchen depends on its own menu and preparation scope. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching Ogden, every other incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.

WMHD Public Pool Permit

A fitness studio that operates a swimming pool anywhere in Weber County needs a Public Pool permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department, priced on the 2026 fee schedule at $550.00 a year for a year-round pool plus $250.00 for each additional pool, or $315.00 for a seasonal-only pool; a Pool Plan Review for a new or remodeled pool is $600.00. Without a pool, a fitness studio has no permit under this program, a scope consequence of the permit applying only to a pool-operating facility. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.

WMHD Food Establishment Permit (Restaurant / Coffee Shop)

Any restaurant or coffee shop anywhere in Weber County — inside Ogden, every other incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, or the remaining unincorporated area — needs an annual food-establishment permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department, because WMHD is a county-wide health authority for both Weber and Morgan Counties rather than a jurisdiction limited to unincorporated territory. The 2026 fee schedule, effective July 1, 2026 and superseding the prior June 26, 2025 schedule, prices the permit by risk category: Risk 1 $200.00, Risk 2 $400.00, Risk 3 $575.00, and Risk 4 $735.00 a year. A food-establishment plan review, required before new construction or an extensive remodel, is billed separately as its own WMHD requirement.

WMHD Mobile Food Business Permit

A food truck operating anywhere in Weber County needs its own Mobile Food Business Permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department, priced under the 2026 fee schedule (effective July 1, 2026) at $350.00 a year for a Tier 2 unit serving fewer than three time/temperature-control-for-safety (TCS) foods, or $500.00 a year for a Tier 2 unit serving three or more TCS foods; a separate HACCP plan review, where the menu requires one, is $315.00. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, so this permit reaches a truck based in Ogden, any other incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, or the remaining unincorporated area alike. A one-off event instead uses the Temporary Food Establishment Permit, a separate WMHD requirement.

WMHD Temporary Food Establishment Permit

Any of the ten covered industries that serves food at a temporary or seasonal event anywhere in Weber County needs a Temporary Establishment permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department. The 2026 fee schedule, effective July 1, 2026, prices it on a sliding scale by how far in advance it is applied for: $65.00 when applied for five or more days before the event, rising in tiers to $146.25 for a same-day application, plus $5.00 for each additional day the event runs. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, so this permit reaches an event in Ogden, any other incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, or the remaining unincorporated area alike. A distinct Seasonal Temporary Foods permit, for food service running up to six months within a twelve-month period, is priced separately at $300.00 on the same fee schedule.

WMHD Day Care / Group Home Inspection

A day-care or group-home facility anywhere in Weber County needs this Weber-Morgan Health Department inspection, priced at $70.00 per inspection on the 2026 fee schedule's 'Miscellaneous Fees' table. WMHD's own Inspector Jargon Glossary separately names a 'child care center' as an example of a 'food establishment,' which means a childcare centre's kitchen is also subject to WMHD's standard food-establishment permit scheme, a separate requirement, in addition to — not instead of — this $70.00 inspection; the two requirements stack rather than substitute for each other. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.

WMHD Tobacco Retailer Permit

A retail store selling tobacco products anywhere in Weber County needs a Tobacco Retailer permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department: $30.00 for a new permit, $20.00 to renew, per the 2026 fee schedule; a separate 'Area Plan' review, where applicable, is $250.00. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike. Whether this permit also reaches a restaurant, coffee shop, or food truck that additionally sells tobacco at the same location is not addressed on WMHD's published tobacco-retailer materials, so this record is scoped to retail-store locations only.

WMHD Onsite Wastewater (Septic) Permit

Any of the ten covered industries that builds on an unsewered parcel anywhere in Weber County needs an onsite wastewater (septic) permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department. The 2026 fee schedule prices it by system type: Conventional $375.00; Deep Trench $400.00; At-Grade $950.00; Mound & Packed Bed Media $850.00; Holding Tank $528.00; Septic Tank Only (plan review included) $290.00; and Permit Renewal $90.00, with a $40.00 state surcharge added to any of the regular fees. A Site Evaluation (per test hole) is $210.00, and a Subdivision Plan Review is $240.00 for one to four lots plus $50.00 for each lot over five. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.

WMHD Body Art Establishment Permit

A salon that offers body art, piercing, or tattoo services anywhere in Weber County needs a Body Art Establishment permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department, priced on the 2026 fee schedule at $150.00 for the establishment permit, with a temporary permit for an individual artist priced at $50.00 per event. Without a body-art component, a salon offering only hair, nail, or skin services has no permit under this program, a scope consequence of the permit reaching only body-art activity. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.

WMHD Tanning Establishment Permit

A salon that offers tanning services anywhere in Weber County needs a Tanning Establishment permit from the Weber-Morgan Health Department, priced at $150.00 a year on the 2026 fee schedule. Without tanning equipment, a salon has no permit under this program, a scope consequence of the permit reaching only tanning activity. WMHD serves both Weber and Morgan Counties county-wide, reaching every incorporated city, Ogden Valley City, and the remaining unincorporated area alike.
