Flat Fee Schedule
Application fee of				$25.00, plus
Permit fee from the following list:
	1.	For in-kind replacement of fuel device to 1- or 2-family dwelling, per device		$25.00
	2.	For in-kind replacement of residential, commercial, or industrial fuel device, per device		$25.00
	3.	For installation of a fuel device used as part of, or as an addition to, an existing commercial or industrial process, per device		$25.00
	4.	For installation of a new fuel device in an existing residential, commercial, or industrial building, per device (when no plans are required by the BCNYS)		$25.00
	5.	For fuel devices site work (e.g., heated paving, permanent radiant or other heaters, etc.)		$75.00

Notes:
1.	All heating, ventilating, and air conditioning flat fee work is only work where no drawings or plans are required by the Building Code of New York State. When drawings and/or plans are required, fees will be derived using the area-calculated fee tables, employing the building occupancy/use-class multiplier.
2.	All other work which is not subject to no-fee provisions has area-calculated permit fees derived from Area-Calculated Fee Schedule A and Use Multiplier Schedule B, below.
	Area-calculated building permit fees consist of four charges: a charge associated with application (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with plan review (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with inspections, and a charge associated with closeout. The first two charges are collected at application, and together make up the application fee. The second two charges are collected at permit issuance, and together make up the permit fee.
	Area-calculated fuel devices fees are derived as follows:
A.	For work limited to buildings and structures:
	Step 1: Identify each use or occupancy on each floor, story, or mezzanine of the building or structure and calculate each use's area in square footage. In mixed-use buildings and structures also identify and calculate the square footage of common areas. Common areas are deemed to have the same use as that of the principal use on the floor, story, or mezzanine.
	Step 2: Total the sum of all similar uses and common area to arrive at use square footages. Apply the amounts or multipliers shown in the following Area-Calculated Fee Table, Schedule A, Buildings and Structure Section, in each of the three listed categories (Application, Plan Review, Inspection and Certificate) to those use square footages, to get a base dollar use value for each use.
	Step 3: Total all the base dollar use values of same uses.
	Step 4: Apply the area-calculated use multiplier from Schedule B to each use total to calculate fees for each use, including the common areas.
	Step 5: Total all use multiplier products to finalize the total fuel devices permit cost for buildings and structures.
B.	For work limited to sites:
	Step 1: Apply the fuel devices site work flat fee amount from the flat fee schedule, above.
C.	For work on both buildings and structures and sites:
	Step 1: Add the total fuel devices permit cost for buildings and structures and the fuel devices permit cost for site work to arrive at the total fuel devices permit cost for the project.

For buildings and structures:

Note: All other demolitions which are not subject to no-fee provisions have area-calculated permit fees derived from Fee Schedule A, below.
Area-calculated demolition permit fees consist of four charges: a charge associated with application (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with plan review (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with inspections, and a charge associated with closeout. The first two charges are collected at application, and together make up the application fee. The second two charges are collected at permit issuance, and together make up the permit fee.
Area-calculated fees are derived as follows:
A.	For demolition work on both buildings and structures and sites:
Step 1: Identify the square foot area of each floor, story, or mezzanine of the building or structure, including basements and cellars, and the square foot area of any site demolition work.
Step 2: Total all the square foot areas to get the total square foot area for the buildings, structures and site.
Step 3: Apply the amounts or multipliers shown in the following Area-Calculated Fee Table, Schedule A, Buildings and Structures and Sites section, in each of the three listed categories (Application, Plan Review, Inspection and Certificate) to the total square foot area to arrive at the total demolition permit cost for the project.

Flat Fee Schedule
	Notes:
	1.	All electrical flat-fee work is only work where no drawings or plans are required by the Building Code of New York State. When drawings and/or plans are required, fees will be derived using the Area-Calculated Fee Table, employing the building occupancy/use-class multiplier.
	2.	Flat fees are not applicable for new construction projects or where plans are required by the Building Code of New York State, e.g., fire alarm systems.
	3.	All other installations which are not subject to no-fee provisions have area-calculated permit fees derived from Fee Schedule A and Use Multiplier Schedule B.
Area-calculated building permit fees consist of four charges: a charge associated with application (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with plan review (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with inspections, and a charge associated with closeout. The first two charges are collected at application, and together make up the application fee. The second two charges are collected at permit issuance, and together make up the permit fee.
Area-calculated fees are derived as follows:
	A.	For work limited to buildings and structures:
		Step 1: Identify each use or occupancy on each floor, story, or mezzanine of the building or structure and calculate each use's area in square footage. In mixed-use buildings and structures also identify and calculate the square footage of common areas. Common areas are deemed to have the same use as that of the principal use on the floor, story, or mezzanine.
		Step 2: Total the sum of all similar uses and common area to arrive at use square footages. Apply the amounts or multipliers shown in the following Area-Calculated Fee Table, Schedule A, Buildings and Structure section, in each of the three listed categories (Application, Plan Review, Inspection and Certificate) to those use square footages, to get a base dollar use value for each use.
		Step 3: Total all the base dollar use values of same uses.
		Step 4: Apply the area-calculated use multiplier from Schedule B to each use total to calculate fees for each use, including the common areas.
		Step 5: Total all use multiplier products to finalize the total electrical permit cost for buildings and structures.
	B.	For work limited to sites:
		Step 1: Apply the electrical site work flat-fee amount from the Flat Fee Schedule, above.
	C.	For work on both buildings and structures and sites:
		Step 1: Add the total electrical permit cost for buildings and structures and the electrical permit cost for site work to arrive at the total electrical permit cost for the project.

Flat Fee Schedule
	Application fee of			$25.00, plus
	Permit fee from the following list:
		1.	For all new plumbing work (except hot water tanks and sewer) not requiring plans to a 1- or 2-family	$30.00
		2.	For all new sewer work not requiring plans to a 1- or 2-family	$35.00
		3.	For all sewer repairs not requiring plans to all residential, commercial, and industrial	$35.00
		4.	For all work not requiring plans to all non 1- or buildings and uses	$35.00
		5.	For all plumbing work to an R occupancy (except 1- and 2-family), per dwelling unit	$30.00
		6.	For hot water tanks to 1- or 2-family	$5.00
		7.	For hot water tanks to all non 1- or 2-family buildings and uses	$10.00

Notes:
1.	All plumbing flat-fee work is only work where no plans are required by the Building Code of New York State. When drawings and/or plans are required, fees are derived using the area-calculated fee tables, employing the building occupancy/use class multiplier.
2.	All other installations which are not subject to no-fee provision have area-calculated permit fees derived from Fee Schedule A and Use Multiplier Schedule B.
Area-calculated building permit fees consist of four charges: a charge associated with application (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated plan review (which is nonrefundable), a charge associated with inspections, and a charge associated with closeout. The first two charges are collected at application, and together make up the application fee. The second two charges are collected at permit issuance, and together make up the permit fee.
Area-calculated fees are derived as follows:
A.	For work limited to buildings and structures:
	Step 1: Identify each use or occupancy on each floor, story, or mezzanine of the building or structure and calculate each use's area in square footage. In mixed-use buildings and structures also identify and calculate the square footage of common areas. Common areas are deemed to have the same use as that of the principal use on the floor, story, or mezzanine.
	Step 2: Total the sum of all similar uses and common areas to arrive at Use Square Footages. Apply the amounts or multipliers shown in the following Area-Calculated Fee Table, Schedule A, Buildings and Structures Section, in each of the three listed categories (Application, Plan Review, Inspection and Certificate) to those use square footages, to get a base dollar use value for each use.
	Step 3: Total all the base dollar use values of same uses.
	Step 4: Apply the area-calculated use multiplier from Schedule B to each use total to calculate fees for each use, including the common areas.
	Step 5: Total all use multiplier products to finalize the total plumbing permit cost for buildings and structures.
B.	For work limited to sites:
	Step 1: Identify and calculate the square footage of the exterior area(s) serviced by the plumbing storm drainage work (i.e., the size of the parking lot to be drained).
	Step 2: Total the sum of all similar exterior areas to be serviced by the plumbing storm drainage work. Apply the amounts or multipliers shown in the following Area-Calculated Fee Table, Schedule A, Site Work Section, in each of the three listed categories (Application, Plan Review, Inspection and Certificate) to those totals to get a total base serviced area value. This is the permit cost for plumbing storm drainage site work.
C.	For work on both buildings and structures and sites:
	Step 1: Add the total building permit cost for buildings and structures and the total building permit cost for site work to arrive at the total building permit cost for the project.
