Required for roof replacement and re-roofing on residential properties in Henderson. Henderson's hot-dry climate (Climate Zone 3B) requires appropriate roofing materials per 2024 IRC and 2024 IECC. Henderson is predominantly below 3,900 ft elevation so ice barrier underlayment is not required. Reroof permits are assessed under the 'Repair — Commercial/Multi-Family/Single-Family' category in Henderson DSC Fee Schedule Table A, effective 10/01/2025. Henderson uses a square-footage-based fee system for all permit types — there is no separate flat reroof fee and no valuation-based fee for reroofing.
