Published scheduling rules

  • As of January 20, 2026, apply for and schedule inspections for electrical and plumbing work on the same CityWorks PublicAccess portal as the building permit — Bonneville County no longer routes these trades to the State of Idaho. Projects permitted before January 20, 2026 keep their state-inspected trades through completion. (Residential Building Permit (New Construction / Addition))
  • All applications and inspection scheduling go through the county's online CityWorks PublicAccess portal (app06.cityworksonline.com/CLIENT_BonnevilleCoID-Public/login). The county's own Building & Zoning Applications and Building Permit & Zoning Fees content pages carry no static fee schedule, but the actual fee schedule IS published — as Resolution No. 25-19 (recorded 09/23/2025, effective 10/1/2025) on the county's separate Resolutions page (bonnevillecountyidaho.gov/page/resolutions, a scanned PDF hosted via Dropbox) — found 2026-07-23. It sets a valuation-based building permit fee table plus flat fees for specific permit types (e.g., Solar $210.00, Electrical or Plumbing Inspection $105.00), each subject to a 10% plan-review fee and 5% software fee; still confirm current figures with the department given the January 2026 electrical/plumbing takeover.
