Tips

  • Copper Canyon Fire & Medical District (CCFMD) — not a 'Camp Verde Fire District' — is the actual, independent special fire district serving Camp Verde; the CCFMD-branded application forms and fee schedule (www.ccfmd.az.org) are the governing documents, even though some older boilerplate text on the Town's own checklists still uses the 'CVFD'/'Camp Verde Fire District' label.
  • Both a Town-collected, valuation-based Building Permit Fee AND a separate flat/tiered CCFMD fee apply to most fire alarm, sprinkler, and suppression installations — budget for both, similar to how Zoning Clearance and Building Permit fees stack on other Camp Verde permit types.
  • CCFMD's fee schedule fee lines (e.g., $483 fire alarm, $600 NFPA 13/13R commercial sprinkler) each include 1 plan review, 1 re-submittal, and 2 inspections unless otherwise noted; an Expedited Plan Review is available for $572 per submittal.
  • Per A.R.S. §9-807, Camp Verde cannot require (or prohibit) fire sprinklers in a single-family detached residence or a residential building of 2 units or fewer.
  • For a fire system installed as part of new commercial construction or a tenant improvement (rather than a standalone retrofit), the CCFMD plan-review fee is 40% of the Town's plan review fee and is one of the components of the overall commercial project deposit.

No. Camp Verde does not operate its own municipal fire department for plan review purposes — fire alarm, fire sprinkler, kitchen suppression, and storage tank systems are reviewed and fee'd by Copper Canyon Fire & Medical District (CCFMD), an independent special fire district (26B Salt Mine Road, Camp Verde, AZ; (928) 567-9401), alongside the Town's own Fire Protection Systems Permit Application and Building Permit Fee.

The Town treats them as one permit product — a single 'Fire Protection Systems Permit Application' checklist covers fire alarms, fire sprinklers, kitchen hood/Ansul systems, and above-ground storage tanks — but each system type is submitted with its own CCFMD-specific application form and is charged its own distinct CCFMD fee (e.g., $483 for a new fire alarm vs. $600 for a new NFPA 13/13R commercial sprinkler system).
