Building Permit Schedule of Fees
Building permit fees are based on an estimate of costs for construction. The following table is used to determine estimated costs for construction.
Multiply the square footage of the appropriate type of construction by the amount of estimated cost per square foot. The fee is $3.00 per $1000 of that estimate
Homes:
1st floor and $125.00
2nd floor $75.00
Manufactured Homes $75.00
Commercial $100.00
Unfinished Garages and Sheds $ 45.00
Finished Garages $ 50.00

Minimum fee $ 30.00
Example: For a 20’ X 30’, 2 story home with a 20’ X 20’ Garage (unfinished) and a 10’ X 15’ deck:
1st floor: 600 Sq. Ft. X $125 = $75,000.00; / $1000 = $75; X $3.00=$225.00
2nd floor: 600 Sq. Ft. X $75= $45,000.00; / $1000 = $45; X $3.00 = 135.00
Deck: 150 Sq. Ft. X $25 = $3,750.00; / $1000 = $3.75; X $3.00= 11.25
Garage: 400 Sq. Ft. X $45 = $18,000.00; / $1000 = $18; X $3.00= 54.00
