TCEFs - Residential Buildings

Transportation Capital Expansion Fees (TCEF) do not apply if the permit for the original house was filed before July 1, 2018. The following fee schedule applies to residential building permit applications when the permit for the original house was submitted after June 30, 2018, for:

  • new residential structures
  • additions
  • basement finishes
  • change of utility building to living space

The following tiered fee schedule applies to building permits for new residential structures with an application date after June 30, 2018. For new residences built after this date, the TCEF will be applied to any new or additional finished living space square footage, including permits for additions, basement finishes, and detached buildings. In these cases, the total fee is based on the difference between the existing and proposed finished living space square footage. The tiered fee structure will not apply to additions or finishes of existing residential living space if the original residential building permit was initiated on or before July 1, 2018.  

The fee schedule below reflects the rates effective July 1, 2025.
