(A) Attached to this code as an addendum are various forms and fee schedules to be used and charged by the town.
(B) No permit for a construction project of any kind or nature shall be issued until the fees prescribed and adopted herein have been paid, nor shall an amendment to the permit be issued until any additional fees are paid, if any are due.
(C) The applicant for a permit shall provide an estimated construction or project value at the time of application. Permit valuations shall include the total value of work, including materials and labor, for which the permit is being issued. If, in the opinion of town officials, including building officials employed to assist the town in determining value and inspecting a project, the estimation is underestimated on the application, the permit shall be denied, unless the applicant can show detailed estimates and bids that meet the approval of the Building Official. Final building or project valuation shall be set by the Building Official.
(D) If it is determined by future City Councils that new or modified fees should be charged for all or any portion of work as provided herein, then the terms of this section as to the amount of fees or the method of determining fees may be modified or repealed by resolution of a City Council rather than by ordinance, as each future City Council may desire.
