The calculator uses staged city data from the ADUFee database with visible confidence levels and dated source tracking.
Fee overview
Several fee amounts in the search results come from county guidance or secondary reporting rather than a directly retrieved city ADU fee schedule, so exact city totals should be verified before use.
School fees are not standardized citywide and must be confirmed with the relevant school district.
The regional transportation mitigation fee may apply, but the search results do not provide an amount.
The requested market is the City of Fresno, not unincorporated Fresno County.
ADU fee treatment depends on unit size and district-specific school fee rules.
The city fee schedule excerpt provided by search results is the most relevant official source for impact fee thresholds, but exact dollar schedules may require additional verification.
