Re: Gas Appliance Installation Permit Fee
Dear Mr. Menasco:
At present, the fee for installation of gas appliances in a building,
whether it be one piece of equipment or several, is $4.00, regardless
of the dollar value cost of the equipment. Itis recommended that
this fee schedule be changed to coincide with the Uniform Building
Code fee schedule which uses a cost factor. All proposed ordinances
are being set up on this fee schedule to allow the issuance of one
permit to include all phases of construction on one building. All
other appliances, fuel oil and electric, (Mechanical Code) will be
figured under the U.B.C. fee schedule if proposed ordinances are
adopted.
Sin rely,
