Fire Department Plan Review
service is charged at a rate of $159.00 per hour, with
one-quarter hour being the smallest chargeable increment. The
length of time to review a plan will vary with the size and
complexity of the project. Plans that are unusual, request a
variance, or have errors or omissions, are likely to incur a
higher fee as a more lengthy plan review will be required. The
range of fees provided below is expected to cover most
projects. However, as plans differ, fees may be less or more
than the ranges indicated below.
Plan Reviewers have provided
estimates of the range of time it may take to review several
types of plans.

Most fees will be collected at the Department of Planning and
Design (DPD) at the time you pick up
approved plans. The inspection fee for a Tenant
Improvement (TI) with 6 or fewer alarm devices will be charged
up front at the OTC permit counter. TI's with 6 or fewer
sprinkler heads, and no fire alarm devices, will be invoiced
after the inspection is conducted. The Sprinkler System
Supply Main fee will be invoiced to the contractor
after the inspection is conducted.
