Automatic Fire Sprinkler PermitAutomatic Fire Sprinkler — New Installation (plan review, visual inspection, and one test) · Saratoga Springs Consolidated Fee Schedule (updated October 2024), Section 5 'New Installations or New Business,' 'Automatic Fire Sprinkler': 'Inspection of plan(s), one visual inspection and one test for sprinkler or suppression system from 100 up to 10,000 square feet in area — $109.00.' No over-10,000-sq-ft rate is published for new installations in this section (a $0.02/sq ft over-10,000 rate is published separately for inspections of EXISTING sprinkler systems, not new installs). Re-chased 2026-07-20: re-fetched the live Consolidated Fee Schedule PDF and independently re-rendered page 22 to a 200dpi PNG — table reads exactly 'Inspection of plan(s), one visual inspection and one test for sprinkler or suppression system from 100 up to 10,000 square feet in area — $109.00' / 'Re-inspection — $38.00,' with no additional new-installation over-10,000-sq-ft tier anywhere in the 'New Installations or New Business' section (pages 21-23) — confirmed genuinely absent, not missed.
