Resolution 2026-02, Building and Fire Prevention Fees

Covers building, electrical, plumbing, mechanical/HVAC, and roofing permits. Minimum permit fee: $50.00.

Official Fee Schedule

How Unincorporated Bradford County values a job: Bradford County calculates a building permit's value from a per square foot table by structure type, rounded to the nearest $1,000. For residential work the table value is used. For commercial and multifamily work the county uses the higher of the table value and the contractor's declared contract price, so a project costing more than $80 per square foot will be charged on the contract price. Electrical, plumbing, mechanical, roofing, and other trade permits are priced on the declared contract price, per Resolution 2026-02.

Schedule effective March 3, 2026. Last verified: September 8, 2026
