Re-inspection fees

Residential Building Permit (New Construction, Additions, Alterations, Repairs)
Fire Inspection (business/commercial occupancy) · Master Fee Schedule, 'Fire' section, effective 10/21/2025 ($50.00 Fire Inspection line), confirmed against the Fire Inspection Application form (Rev… Show full citationFire Inspection (business/commercial occupancy) · Master Fee Schedule, 'Fire' section, effective 10/21/2025 ($50.00 Fire Inspection line), confirmed against the Fire Inspection Application form (Rev 1/2020) itself, which has matching $50 checkboxes for the initial inspection and each additional inspection. Requested via a standalone Fire Inspection Application to the Fire Chief; not itself a building-permit line item, and the City's published materials do not state this is a mandatory prerequisite for building-permit issuance or occupancy of a new/converted commercial tenant space -- listed here because it is the closest fire-safety-inspection fee found relevant to opening a commercial business in Grangeville.
$50.00, plus $50.00 for each additional/follow-up inspection if non-compliance requires re-inspection
