Section 20.08.220 Permit fee payment.

Before any electrical permit is issued, the person, firm or corporation making application shall pay to the city the required permit fees. All permit fees shall be payable at the time of permit issuance with exception to pre-approved billing accounts established by the permit applicant. Contractors with a billing account will be sent monthly statements for all fees due the city. If the account is not paid by the first of the following month, the account will become delinquent. There shall be no further permits issued to the contractor responsible for such work until all fees required by this code have been paid for. The city reserves the right to revoke a contractors billing account privilege when such account has become delinquent 3 or more times in any 12 month billing cycle. Any person who shall do any electrical work for which a permit is required without having first made application for an electrical permit shall, if subsequently permitted to obtain a permit, pay a double permit fee fixed for such work.
