Plan Review Fees
The District reviews all plans associated with each project. Plan review fees as established by Ordinance #496 (passed March 15, 2006) are assessed based on the size and complexity of the project.
- An initial meeting with property owner or developer (concept meeting) at no cost.
- Upon submission of formal plans (beyond concept drawings) a minimum, non-refundable administrative fee of $1000.00 is due.
- The final administration fee (payable at IEPA permit processing) will be 1% of the/your engineer’s estimate for the sanitary portion of the project (minus the initial $1,000.00). The owner/developer will also be required to pay for any retained personnel expenses and/or out of pocket expenses incurred by the District (these expenses include but are not limited to costs and fees for legal and engineering services, planners and/or other experts retained by the District, publication costs, rental of meeting facilities, over-time for staff, etc.).
- All outstanding or additional fees owed the District must be paid in full prior to any sewer activation.
