Frequently Asked Questions

What are typical fees for a planning permit?
Fees depend on project type and location. The Planning and Building Department also collects fees on behalf of other participating agencies. The most current Schedule of Fees and Charges can be found here in our Brochures and Forms page. Processing fees for planning permits are collected on either a flat fee or a full cost recovery basis. Flat fees are a fixed amount whereas full cost recovery projects require a deposit and may include additional billing at project completion. Most cost recovery projects are subject to a cap of three times the initial deposit.
