About each permit
Fire Protection System Permits
A blanket recurring/annual commercial fire-inspection fee also appears to exist (the department's live fee page references an 'Annual Fire & Safety Inspection' program with a noncompliance fee around $122), but two sources gave inconsistent current dollar figures with signs of a PDF-extraction artifact, so no single figure is asserted for that recurring line item here — confirm directly with Fire Prevention at (253) 591-5740.
