A note on these figures from the official schedule. Details

Wylie's posted fee handout prints the commercial miscellaneous electrical, plumbing and mechanical permit fee as $0.10 per square foot of area improved, while the adopted fee ordinance (Code Appendix A, Section III.B) prints $.010 (one cent); estimates use the handout's $0.10, so confirm with the city. The handout also prints a $100 minimum for shell and tenant finish-out permits, where the ordinance's 75 percent rule would give $75; estimates use $100. The fee schedule prints no roof replacement fee, although the city requires roofing permits.

In Wylie, a building permit for a remodel runs $60.00 in permit fees, a $10,000 HVAC change-out $50.00, a $10,000 electrical panel upgrade or rewire $50.00, and a $10,000 whole-house repipe $50.00. Totals include the documented surcharges and minimum fees; where the schedule prices by unit, figures assume a 200 sq ft remodel area. Each figure is that single permit only: a job that combines trades, like a kitchen remodel with electrical and plumbing work, pays each applicable permit.
