0.6% of job value, minimum $35.00
Application Deposit (non-refundable) (not added to total)$35.00
$35.00 non-refundable deposit due at time of permit application submittal; credited toward the total permit fee charged at issuance. Building Dept FAQ page confirms 'a $35 permit application deposit is required for each type of permit' (https://www.ponce-inlet.org/472/Frequently-Asked-Questions-about-the-Pla), so scoped to all permit types (building/electrical/plumbing/mechanical/roofing).
FL Building Code Admin & Inspectors Fund Surcharge (F.S. 468.631)$2.00
Printed as '1.5% of building permit fee or $2.00, whichever is greater.' Rate/min verified directly in source (matches F.S. 468.631). Scoped to ALL permit types (corroborated, not building-only) per statutory precedent, same basis as the 553.721 surcharge above.
FL Building Commission Surcharge (F.S. 553.721)$2.00
Printed as '1% of building permit fee or $2.00, whichever is greater.' Rate/min verified directly in source (matches F.S. 553.721). Scoped to ALL permit types (corroborated, not building-only) per statutory precedent: FL law requires this surcharge on all building-code-regulated permits (building/electrical/plumbing/mechanical/roofing), even though this schedule's text sits under the Building part.
Plan Review Fee$60.00
Non-refundable plan review fee for all new residential and commercial buildings, structures, additions, and alterations: $15.00 + 0.003×estimated construction value (0.3%). REMODELED 2026-07-23 (review #5): stored as a valuation_tiered add-on with one unbounded tier (Band Base Fee $15 + $0.003 per $1 of value) because the calculator does not add Flat Amount on percent_of_valuation add-ons — reproduces $15 + 0.3%×value exactly, no rounding. Pre-paid in full for projects over $100,000 estimated construction value (timing note only, does not change amount). Source notes a discretionary exemption for fences/minor structures 'deemed by the chief building official to require less time to review' — not modeled (discretionary, no fixed criteria). SCOPE BROADENED building→building+roofing 2026-07-23 (review #5, owner broad-scope policy): a roofing permit in Ponce Inlet IS a Part II building permit (the same reading that sources the roofing fee rule), so Item 3 plan review attaches to it; downgraded verified→corroborated to reflect the inferred roofing scope. Electrical/plumbing/mechanical correctly excluded by the source text.
Technology Fee$10.00
Printed as 'Required to maintain on-line permitting system [F.S. 553.79(b)]. >$10.00 min or 5% of permit fees, whichever is greater.' Basis is ambiguous ('permit fees' plural, not explicitly 'building permit fee'); modeled as percent_of_permit_fee on the trade's own permit fee. Scoped broadly to ALL permit types per owner policy for ambiguous intake/technology-type fees (needs_confirmation) since the fee funds the town's online permitting system used for every trade, not just building.
Total estimate$164.00

Chargeable valuation is the higher of the applicant's estimated job cost or the value shown in the latest ICC Building Valuation Data chart for the permit type.
