fees in service centers A1, A2, A3, and A4. The use of a flat fee and the use of the estimated regional market
value of the proposed construction multiplied by a "fee factor." These methods represent the estimated cost of
providing all plan review and various inspection fees

an official contract approved by the Building Director. The revenue generated from this is then spread to the various costs center as follows:
