- Home occupation permit required:
- Yes
- Details:
- Summit County is subject to Utah state law under Utah Code §4-5-501, which requires UDAF registration and a food handler's permit. Utah state law explicitly prohibits local governments from imposing additional requirements on compliant registered cottage food operations. No county-specific ordinance was found that restricts cottage food beyond state law. Summit County includes Park City, a high-income resort community with active farmers markets and food culture. Utah state law preempts additional local requirements for UDAF-registered operations. Some Park City incorporated areas may have business licensing requirements — check with Summit County Clerk.
- Home kitchen:
- Utah Code §4-5-501 (formerly §4-5-9.5) establishes the Cottage Food Registration program administered by UDAF. A food handler's permit and UDAF registration are required. No sales cap. Local governments are explicitly prohibited from imposing additional requirements on compliant registered operations. A parallel Home Consumption and Homemade Food Act (Title 4, Chapter 5A) allows sales without state registration but only at direct-to-sale farmers markets.
