Tips

  • As of July 2026, the City of Page does not appear to publish a permit-specific plan review turnaround time for residential additions/remodels on its public website. The City publishes its fee schedule and permit application but not category-specific review timelines, and this permit type is not addressed by the commercial-only SPRC timeline in Zoning Code § 152.095. There is no verifiable online source for this — call the City of Page Building Safety Department directly at 928-645-4266.
  • Detached accessory structures for storage, one-story and under 120 sq ft, are permit-exempt per the Building Safety Department's published exemption list, but zoning/setback compliance may still apply.
  • Addition/remodel plans are billed on the identical Table 1-A valuation schedule as new construction — there is no separate flat fee for remodels.
