Colorado Springs Fire Department - Construction Services Fee Schedule - Approved January 2020
The Construction Services fee schedule covers Plan Review and Inspections associated with new project submittals. The revisions came from a year-end review of volume and inspection wait times. CSFD is aware of the impact of inspection times on our members’ daily business and is actively working towards a solution. The recent fee schedule approval has allowed for the Construction Service team to add staff in an effort to tighten plan review and inspection times. The Department plans to review the fee schedule annually.
