Permit Fees for Smyth County Building
Inspection
General Information:
- State Tax: A
levy is added to the building permit as set by the State. All
building permit fees will be rounded to the nearest dollar before
the levy is computed. Current state levy is 1.75% (.0175).
- Refund Policy:
A building permit fee will be refunded at the request of the owner
if the permit is not used. However, a refund must be requested
within 12 months of the date the permit is issued, and $25.00 will
be forfeited to defray administrative costs in issuing the permit.
A refund may also be requested on a discontinued project, but the
building inspection department reserves the right to withhold an
amount to defray the expenses of all inspections that were made plus
$25.00 for the administrative costs involved in writing the permit.
- Renewing Permit:
If six months elapse between requests for an inspection, the owner
may request a six-month extension of the building permit.
However, after a twelve month period elapses, the owner must pay the
minimum permit fee to renew the original permit for another twelve
months. Permits more than thirty-six months old cannot be
renewed, and the applicant shall purchase a new permit for the
portion of the work that has not been completed.
- Partial Permits:
If an owner or contractor requests permission to obtain a permit on
part of a project, the entire fee shall be paid with the first
partial permit and ensuing permits will be issued without charge.
If the owner or contractor requests separate permits to be issued to
the general contractor and subcontractors, the entire building
permit fee shall be paid with the general contractor’s permit.
- Exempt from Permit
Fees: Churches, public schools, governmental agencies and
eleemosynary institutions and any projects designated by the Board
of Supervisors shall be exempt from the fees imposed by Section
22-56. However, such projects shall apply for and secure
building permits as required by law.
