PERMIT AND INSPECTION FEES

A permit is required for all alteration, removal or installation of plumbing. No permit shall be issued to any resident, builder, contractor, and/or plumber who owes the District any outstanding fee or charge assessed by the District. 

Dependent on the type of permit a series of five inspections (rough-in, service lines, copper, top-out, and final) will be required. Payment for five plumbing inspections is required in advance based on the plumbing permit in effect.
