The Town of Brookhaven has updated the Town Code & Fees

As of February 25, 2019, the method for establishing fees has changed for the following: 

• All building permits
• Universal design permits
• Fire prevention fees
• Sign permits
• Towing business fees
• Tree preservation fees
• Zoning and land use regulation fees
• Brookhaven Calabro Airport fees
• Department of the Assessor fees.

The formula used to calculate fees is (Current Fee) + ((B-A)/A x (Current Fee)) = New Fee. The formula was derived pursuant to the Consumer Price Index.

• B represents the price index from July to June of the immediately preceding year. 
• A is the price index for July of the immediately preceding year.

Because all variables in the formula are subject to change, the fees will increase each year on January 1st.
