In accordance with provisions of the Florida Building Code and Chapter 10 of the Code of
Miami-Dade County, each firm or organization in Miami-Dade County which performs its own
maintenance work with certified maintenance personnel, as well as helpers thereunder, may pay
to Miami-Dade County an annual Master and Subsidiary Premise Permit fee in lieu of other
fees for maintenance work. Such fee shall be paid to the Building Department and such permit
shall be renewed annually at a fee, which is calculated in accordance with the provisions of this

KOOl Each firm or organization which obtains an annual master premise permit shall include in
their application for such permit the total number of maintenance personnel, including helpers
and trainees thereunder, assigned to building, electrical, plumbing or mechanical work. The

employee's times [$53.50 during fiscal year 1999-2000 and $57.25 during fiscal year 2000-
2001]. The minimum Master Premise Permit fee shall be [$1011.15 during fiscal year 1999-

location described under Point 1 above, may additionally apply for a Subsidiary Premise
Permit for each such decentralized location. Such application for a Subsidiary Premise Permit
shall include the same information required in Point 1 above. The Subsidiary Premise Permit
fee shall be computed by multiplying the total number of such employee's times [$53.50
during fiscal year 1999-2000 and $57.25 during fiscal year 2000-2001]. The minimum
Subsidiary Premise Permit fee shall be [$283.55 during fiscal year 1999-2000 and $303.40
during fiscal year 2000-2001].
3. RENEWAL OF PREMISE PERMIT
K003 Prior to all premise permit expiration, the holder will be sent a renewal notice to continue the
Premise Permit for the next renewal period. The calculation of the renewal Premise Permit fee
shall be the same as the method used to calculate the original Premise Permit fee. No
allowances shall be made for late renewal fees or part year renewal fees.
