Taking a few minutes of your time to check zoning, code and permit requirements can save you a lot of headaches and money.
Permit Fees
Building permit fees are based on the dollar valuation of your project using the Building Safety Journal. The fee schedule (PDF) will let you know what your permit will cost.
