PLAIN ANSWERCities use different formulas: flat trade fees, project valuation, equipment counts, plan-review time or combinations of these.Local rules vary. The linked official examples support the workflow, not a nationwide yes/no answer.
A safe way to handle it
1
Use only the current official fee schedule.
2
Ask about plan review, technology, impact and reinspection fees.
3
Do not assume a contractor allowance is the final city fee.
