Sec. 7-2.1. Schedule of building permit fees.
Fees for building permits issued pursuant to the BOCA Basic
Building Code shall be as follows:
Schedule of Building Permit Fees
A minimum fee of five dollars shall be charged for each permit
issued when the total cost of the total physical value of the work
performed is less than one thousand dollars.
For all permits when the cost or the total physical value of the
work is in excess of one thousand dollars, the fee shall be based on
the following schedule:
One thousand dollars up to and including ten thousand
dollars, three dollars for each one thousand dollars or part
thereof.
Ten thousand and one dollars up to and including twenty
thousand dollars, two dollars for each one thousand dollars or
part thereof.
Twenty thousand and one dollars up to and including one
hundred thousand dollars, one dollar and fifty cents for each one
thousand dollars or part thereof.
All over one hundred thousand dollars, basic fee, one
hundred seventy dollars plus one dollar for each one
thousand dollars or part thereof.
All building permits shall be issued upon payment of a fee
based on the estimated total physical value. Upon completion of
the work for which a permit is issued, an accurate statement of
the actual cost thereof shall be furnished to the building official
by the party to whom the permit was issued. An adjustment of
the difference between the fee paid, based on the estimated total
physical value, shall be made. If the actual cost exceeds the
estimated cost, the party to whom the permit was issued shall pay
the difference in the fee; if the actual cost be less than the
estimated cost, the city director of finance is hereby authorized,
upon direction of the building official, to refund to the party, by
whom the estimated fee was paid, such portion thereof as
constitutes an overpayment. (3-17-75, § 1.)
