Calculate Estimated Building Permit Fees

Welcome to the Community Development Building Permit Fee Estimator!

The Fee Estimator tool is built into our existing e-TRAKiT permitting system as a new permit type and calculates an estimate of permit fees for the following types of projects within the City of Vacaville:

• Residential New Single-Family Dwelling
• Accessory Dwelling Unit
• Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit
• New Multi-Family Dwelling
• New Commercial Structure

These fees are to be used as estimates only and are not intended to determine actual fees for a project. Actual project fees will be determined by Building Division staff at the time of permit approval. Fees are subject to change, and additional fees may apply due to the location of the project.
