§ 72-6.204. Fees.

(a)

Fees shall be paid with the submission of an application for any permit required by this title. No application may be filed and accepted as complete until all required fees have been paid. Any permit issued without the payment of all required fees is invalid and of no force and effect. Permit fees and other fees will be in amounts set forth in fee schedules adopted by the board of supervisors.

(b)

A person who starts any work for which a permit is required under this title without first having obtained a permit shall, if later issued a permit for such work, pay double the permit fee. This provision does not apply to emergency work if the county building official determines that the emergency work was urgently necessary and that it was not practicable to obtain a permit before starting the work. In all such cases, a permit must be obtained as soon as it is practicable to do so, and if there is an unreasonable delay in obtaining the permit, a double fee shall be charged.
