Description
Project Valuation
Building Permit Fee
Residential small job
$1,000.00 or less
$35.00
Residential
$1,001.00 to $5,000.00
$50.00
Commercial
$0.00 to $5,000.00
$50.00
Commercial and residential
Over $5,001.00
$50.00 (base first $5,000.00), plus $4.50 per each additional $1,000.00 of valuation
Example: Construction value is $10,000.00
$10,000.00 - $5,000.00 (base) = $5,000.00
$5,000.00 (additional valuation)/$1,000.00 = 5
5 x $4.50 = $22.50
$22.50 + $50.00 = $72.50 (building permit fees)
