For uninhabited structures, (for example Detached Garage) the construction permit fee is $0.50 per square foot ($100.00 minimum) with a construction guarantee deposit of $1.00 per square foot (minimum).

An authorized permit is valid for 6 months and work must be started within this period. All work must be completed within 2 years.
