Ithaca Building Permit Costs

Construction ITEM DESCRIPTION

Building permit cost for the city of Ithaca, NY.

HINT-- You can replace this unit cost with pricing for a building permit from one of your own localities.

Labor Costs

We figure about 1.5 hours to get the permit for a small project. For larger projects or in more difficult localities, you'll probably want to add some time for getting a construction permit.

Material Costs

We include the permit cost as a type-in "unlisted" cost. The permit cost is outdated, but presumably you'll replace it with your own locality costs anyhow.

Suggested Quantity

One permit per project.

HINT-- If your building permit is based on square footage or other construction sizes, enter the size as a suggested quantity and use the cost of the permit per unit.

This is just a rough estimate for a small-project permit.

Comments

In our former MacNail program we had a "step" formula that calculated the building permit fee for each size of project. That could be done in Goldenseal also by using a project size dimension and a calculated dimension with the permit cost for each size. We haven't bothered to set one up that way but we'll do it on request.
