Tips
- Kellogg's Building Official, Keith Teeters, personally issues all permits and can be reached directly at (208) 786-9131 (office), (208) 661-0494 (cell), or keith.teeters@kellogg.id.gov.
- All building permit fees must be paid with cash or check only — no card payments accepted.
- Electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work in Kellogg is permitted and inspected by the State of Idaho, not the city — call 1-800-955-3044 or visit dbs.idaho.gov.
- A single application form covers most residential permit types (new construction, additions, alterations, demolition, fence, re-roof, siding, signs, mobile/manufactured home setting, and floodplain development) — check the applicable boxes.
- Projects in a flood zone require completion of Section 5 (Floodplain Development Permit) of the application, including FIRM map/panel number and lowest floor elevation; substantial improvement (addition value ≥49% of pre-improvement structure market value) triggers Chapter 8.24 CPMC minimum development requirements.
- This same Building Department Permit Application and permit process is also how Kellogg handles commercial new construction and commercial tenant-improvement (TI)/remodel work -- Kellogg has no separate commercial building permit and no separate TI permit. The application PDF's checkbox list is New Construction, Addition, Alteration, Demolition, Fence, Re-Roof, Siding, Sign, Mobile/Manufactured Home Setting, and Floodplain Development, with no 'Commercial' or 'Tenant Improvement' checkbox, and City Code § 4-1-1 adopts both the 2018 IBC (§ 4-1-1.A, governing commercial construction) and the 2018 IEBC (§ 4-1-1.F, governing alterations/change of occupancy in existing buildings, i.e. TI-type work) within the same combined Title 4, Chapter 1. A commercial project checks 'New Construction'/'Addition' and a TI/remodel project checks 'Alteration' on this identical form.
