Callahan - Plan Review Fee

tiered by job value (Tiers above $15,000 are exactly half of the Building rule's own valuation tiers (Fee Rule R1, Sec. 102-9A, $10 issuance fee included) - an exact algebraic derivation of the printed '1/2 of building permit fee' formula, not an estimate. Modeled as a standalone valuation-keyed schedule (rather than percent_of_permit_fee) specifically so the flat $25 low-end band and the 50%-of-fee high-end band cannot double-apply to the same estimate.)
