Fire Protection Systems Permit — Fire Alarm / Fire Sprinkler / Kitchen Hood Suppression / Above-Ground Storage Tank in Camp Verde, Arizona
Covers installation of fire alarm systems, fire sprinkler systems (NFPA 13/13R commercial and NFPA 13D one-and-two-family residential), commercial kitchen hood/Ansul suppression systems, and above-ground fire protection water storage tanks in the Town of Camp Verde. Submitted as a single Town 'Fire Protection Systems Permit Application' alongside the applicable system-specific application from Copper Canyon Fire & Medical District (CCFMD) — the independent special fire district that serves Camp Verde and directly reviews/fees these systems. Camp Verde does not have its own municipal fire department; it relies on CCFMD.

UNCHANGED in the FY2026-27 schedule (Resolution 2026-1217, effective 7/1/2026): 'MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT → Fire Alarm → Commercial — Applicants valuation or $3.50 a sq.ft. whichever is greater; $375 max, plus Fire Marshal Fees.' (row 446), no FY2026-27 change recorded. This is the Town's own Building Permit Fee, separate from the CCFMD fees below.A $375.00 cap has been added where there was none. Show full citationHide
A $375.00 cap has been added where there was none. Row 450, 'Fire Suppression → Commercial': the 2025-26 column reads 'Applicants valuation or $1.50 a sq. ft., Whichever is greater plus Fire Marshal Fees.' and the 2026-27 column reads 'Add in Maximum $375.00'. The per-square-foot rate itself is unchanged; the cap is new for FY2026-27 and brings Fire Suppression into line with the Fire Alarm rows, which already carried a $375 max.A $375.00 cap has been added where there was none.

AMOUNT UNCHANGED at $300.00, SCOPE CHANGED. Read from a render of page 2 of the current CCFMD schedule, FIRE ALARM table: 'Modifications to Existing System (plan review, 1 rough-in and 1 Final Inspection) — $300.00'. The device-count qualifier this record previously carried ('1-20 devices') no longer appears — the current schedule prices all fire-alarm modifications at a single $300.00 with no device threshold, which also resolves the prior note's complaint that the fee for more than 21 devices was not legibly published.$400 → $460.00. Read from a render of page 1 of the current CCFMD schedule, SPRINKLER SYSTEMS table: 'NFPA 13D (plan review & 2 inspections) — $460.00 up to 10,000 sq ft Base fee + $0.03 Per… Show full citationHide

The current schedule also adds a spec-home provision immediately above that row: 'Fees for 13D Spec Home Projects (meaning same for same for a 13D system) $460.00 initial fee, which includes plan review fee and two inspections. Subsequent charges are an additional fee of $210.00 for each additional unit.'A single $400 modification fee has become two head-count tiers, adding a cheaper small-job option. Show full citationHide
A single $400 modification fee has become two head-count tiers, adding a cheaper small-job option. Read from a render of page 1 of the current CCFMD schedule, SPRINKLER SYSTEMS table: 'Modifications to existing sprinkler systems, 20 heads or less Over the counter permit (1 Inspection) — $200.00' and 'Modifications to existing sprinkler systems, 21 heads or greater (plan review & 2 Inspections) — $400.00'.

CHANGED, and the change is material rather than cosmetic: this record published the CCFMD plan review as '40% of the Town of Camp Verde plan review fee', but the current schedule's PLAN REVIEWS table reads 'All New Construction — 40% of Permit Fee'. Because the Town's own Building Plan Review Fee is itself 65% of the Building Permit Fee, 40% of the permit fee and 40% of the plan review fee are very different numbers, and the base we published was the wrong one. Read from a 200-dpi render of page 1 of the current CCFMD schedule. The same table also adds three rows this record did not carry: 'Tenant Improvements w/Change of Use (Commercial) (plan review and 1 inspection) — $250.00', 'Residential Additions / Alterations (plan review and 1 inspection) — $200.00', and 'Simple Addition or TI (Residential or Commercial) = No Comment/Inspection — No Fee'. This is the Fire Plan Review Fee referenced in the Town's commercial project deposit calculation.CHANGED from a flat charge to a multiplier: $572 per submittal → '2.5 x original fee'.

CHANGED from a flat charge to a multiplier: $572 per submittal → '2.5 x original fee'. Read from a 200-dpi render of page 1 of the current CCFMD schedule, PLAN REVIEWS table, row 'Expedited Reviews (1 week or less)'. On the current schedule the expedited charge therefore scales with whatever the underlying review costs rather than being a fixed sum.AMOUNT UNCHANGED at $100.00 per hour with a 1-hour minimum.

Read from a 200-dpi render of page 1 of the current CCFMD schedule, PLAN REVIEWS table, row 'Re-submittal - For each re-submittal — $100.00 per/hr 1 hr min'. The label has changed: the current schedule charges per re-submittal rather than framing it as review beyond an included allowance.Review timeline

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 lines state their own included work individually rather than following one blanket rule — e.g. NFPA 72 fire alarm new install ($535.00) includes plan review, 1 rough-in inspection and 1 final; NFPA 13 & 13R commercial sprinkler ($600.00) and NFPA 13D ($460.00) each include plan review and 2 inspections; kitchen hood suppression lines include plan review and 1 inspection. Re-submittals are billed separately at $100.00/hour with a 1-hour minimum, and an expedited review (1 week or less) now costs 2.5 times the original fee rather than a flat sum.
- 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.
