About each permit
Fire Prevention Bureau Commercial Inspection
The Fire Prevention Bureau's own current page states plainly, 'A fee of $100.00 is charged for all fire inspection,' and lists the reasons an inspection is required, including sale of a business or property, change of use/occupancy, Board of Licenses licensing, complaints or investigations, and an owner's own request. This is separate from the Bureau's own $30.00 smoke/carbon-monoxide detector inspection fee, which applies only to 1- and 2-family home sales and new houses rather than a standing commercial requirement, so is not recorded as its own line here.
