Permit Fees

The cost of your permit is based on several factors. For a project specific fee quote, please call us at (360) 342-5040.

Please note that the purpose of this page is to illustrate the way impact, development, and building permit fees are calculated for development within the City. To get a project specific estimate, please contact the Building Division at (360) 342-5046. 

Building Permit fees are based on the following:

  • Size of structure (square foot)
  • Type of construction
  • Occupancy classification

Impact Fees

Fees collected from the developer to ensure that adequate public facilities are available to serve new growth and development within the City of Battle Ground. The facilities include: fire, park, school, and transportation. If applicable, these fees are collected at the time of building permit issuance.

System Development Charges

Fees collected from the developer for any development, expansion of use, change of occupancy, or increase in impact that is found to place additional demand on the City's sewer, water, or stormwater/drainage systems. If applicable, these are collected at the time of building permit issuance.

Mechanical and Plumbing Permits and Fees

Permit fees are based upon the quantity of fixtures and/or units installed. If you would like to get an estimate of your plumbing or mechanical project, please complete the form below and fax to the City of Battle Ground Building Division (360) 342-5049.
