Fee schedule

Building permit fee (valuation-based)
MARYSVILLE PUBLISHES ITS PERMIT FEE TABLE IN THE CODE, AND YOU SHOULD CONFIRM IT BEFORE BUDGETING - FOR TWO REASONS, BOTH FROM THE CITY'S OWN TEXT. Show full citationMARYSVILLE PUBLISHES ITS PERMIT FEE TABLE IN THE CODE, AND YOU SHOULD CONFIRM IT BEFORE BUDGETING - FOR TWO REASONS, BOTH FROM THE CITY'S OWN TEXT. FIRST, THE PRINTED FIGURES ARE NOT THE AMOUNT PAYABLE: the table's note says "Fees are based on February 2023 Building Valuation Data, published by the ICC, including a cost modifier of 1.03 applied each year starting in 2025", so a compounding annual modifier sits on top of what is printed. SECOND, THE TABLE DOES NOT AGREE WITH ITSELF AT TWO BOUNDARIES. A tiered table should be continuous - each bracket's base equalling the previous base plus its rate across the bracket. Four of the six boundaries here are exact to the penny. Two are not: at $2,000 the table computes to $95.75 but the next bracket starts at $69.25, and at $1,000,000 it computes to $5,608.75 but the next bracket starts at $5,680.75. THIS GUIDE DOES NOT ADJUDICATE which figure the city applies - ask Marysville. PLAN REVIEW IS A RATIO AND IS UNAFFECTED: "said plan review fee shall be 65 percent (65%) of the building permit fee", and a plan established as a "basic" plan for repeated use within a subdivision is reviewed at 35 percent.
From $50.00 - see notes for caveats

Inspection process

    Tips

    • Confirm the fee before budgeting: the printed table carries a compounding cost modifier and is discontinuous at two boundaries
    • A repeated "basic" plan within a subdivision is reviewed at 35% instead of 65%
    • Do not let anyone occupy without water and sewer - that is a separate violation with its own clocks

    Marysville requires a building permit for: Built to the 2021 International Building Code and 2021 International Residential Code; Future amendments by the ICC and the state become part of the code automatically; IRC Appendices AF, AQ and AU and Chapters 11 and 25 through 43 are NOT adopted; IBC Appendix E IS adopted; Plan review is 65% of the building permit fee, payable when plans are submitted.

    MMC 16.04.045 publishes a valuation table running from $50.00 for work valued $1 to $500 up to $5,680.75 for the first $1,000,000 plus $3.65 per additional $1,000. Two cautions, both from the city's own text. The note says fees are based on February 2023 ICC valuation data "including a cost modifier of 1.03 applied each year starting in 2025", so the printed figure is not the amount due. And the table is discontinuous at two boundaries - at $2,000 it computes to $95.75 against a stated $69.25, and at $1,000,000 to $5,608.75 against a stated $5,680.75. Ask the city which figure applies.

    The 2021 International Building Code and 2021 International Residential Code, named in MMC 16.04.010. But MMC 16.04.020 adds that all later amendments or supplements adopted by the ICC and by the state "shall become a part of this code", so the named edition moves with the state without the city re-enacting it.
