BACKGROUND: The "2006 Schedule of Rates and Fees" includes a minimum charge of $215 for any commercial /industrial /institutional /public plumbing or heating alteration, repair or replacement project. This fee is appropriate for traditional commercial projects However, there are some projects where the permit fee is nearly the same 4 the cost of the project. Examples include the installation of a water cooler, or a pressure reducing value. These projects are typically less than $500 and require only one or possibly two inspections and no plan review. After reviewing the fee schedule and talking with contractors, the charge of $215 is disproportionate to the cost of the project and the time spent by staff.
