A-901.12 Inspection Fee

The Department is authorized to charge inspection fees in accordance with Sections A-901.12.1 through A-901.12.3.

The Department is authorized to charge a reinspection fee of $100 for each additional inspection that is required as a result of the need to re-schedule a scheduled permit inspection for one or more of the following reasons, and the Department shall have the discretion to require that such fee be paid in advance of any reinspection:

1. The work is not constructed in accordance with the applicable code;
2. The work is not ready for inspection;
3. Access to the work to be inspected is not provided; or
4. A violation of the code is observed during a permit inspection.

When, upon reinspection, the Department determines that a condition previously found not in compliance with a provision of the technical codes or regulations promulgated thereunder continues not to be in compliance, the Department is authorized to charge a further reinspection fee for all second and subsequent reinspections, as follows:

In addition to other penalties provided for in this code, any person who fails to remit the required reinspection fee to the Department when requested, shall have his or her license or permit to conduct the business activity or operation suspended, and the business activity or operation shall cease until the payment of fees owed has been received by the Department.

A fee of $60 per hour, with a minimum charge of four hours, shall be charged to any person requesting an inspection be performed at any time other than ordinary working hours for inspections.
