Permit Fee Schedule
The Permit Fee Schedule is based on the estimated cost of the work as follows (Value rounded up: example cost of job $7200 = $8000):

Permit Fee Schedule Effective October 1, 2008
Estimated cost of job less than $1000 = $45.00
Estimated cost of job between $1001 and up to $3000 = $100.00
Over $3001 up to 100,000 = $100.00 plus 1.5% of the amount exceeding $3,000
Over $100,001                     

=  $100.00 for the amount up to $3,000 plus 1.5% of the amount exceeding $3,000 up to $100,000 plus 1.0% of the amount over $100,000

Re-inspection Fees: A $50.00 re-inspection fee will be charged for each discipline/trade re-inspection after two (2) failed inspections.  Engineering inspections will be charged $150.00 each inspection after the first initial inspection. 

Penalty Fees: Ordinance 585 states that work commencing on any building or structure prior to obtaining the necessary permits will be subjected to penalty fees as follows:

AMENDING CHAPTER 67, ARTICLE III, SECTION 67-58(c) Permit Fees.

 (c) If any person commences any work on a building or structure before obtaining the necessary permit under this article, the fee for the permit, when obtained, shall be double the total amount of the permit fee otherwise required plus $200.00 if the total cost of the work on a building or structure is equal to or less than $5,000, and four times the total amount of the permit fee otherwise required if the total cost of the work on a building or structure exceeds $5,000.

Major revisions, as determined by the Building & Zoning Official, will be charged an additional $45.00+ hourly rate for review (total cost depends on type of revision.)
