Click here to see a checklist for items that do need a permit, and items that do not require a permit.
To avoid insurance claims not being paid.
To make sure all life safety items are built or installed correctly.
To avoid problems when the home is being sold. Work done without a permit doesn't qualify as livable square footage due to not being inspected.
The cost of a permit depends on the type of a permit needed.
Our base fee is $151.50* This covers furnace and water heater change out, reroofing a home, replacing windows and exterior doors, and redoing exterior wall coverings.
$251.50* covers basic decks, small sheds, and basement finishing that are valued at $15,000.00 or less.
When a $15,000.00 is exceeded, then per the City Council, permit fees are figured on a per square foot basis. For example, a 1500 square foot detached garage/shop permit fee is $765.44*.
*The noted fees cover the processing of the permit and the applicable field inspections.
Contractors may use their code and schedule an inspection using the IWorq portal or call the inspector directly.
