It is the intent of the Board of Supervisors to group the fees
required for various permits, associated with the construction process,
into one fee schedule as contained in this chapter.
(SCC 686 § 8, 1987)
B.
The
determination of value or valuation under any of the provisions of
this code shall be made by the Building Official. The value to be
used in computing the permit fee shall be the total value of all construction
work for which the permit is issued as well as all finish work, painting,
roofing, electrical, plumbing, heating, air-conditioning, elevators,
fire extinguishing systems, and any other permanent equipment.
C.
The
new permit fee schedule will apply to all permit applications received
on or after the effective date of the new permit fee ordinance.
|
Plans submitted for plan review prior to the effective date
of the new permit fee ordinance may be issued under the old permit
fee schedule for 90 days. After the 90 day grace period, all permits
will be issued under the new permit fee schedule.
