South Bend ADU Permit Fees & Cost Calculator
South Bend’s official building pages confirm that permits are required for building work and that fee payment is handled by the Building Department, but the provided official sources do not expose a clear ADU-specific fee schedule. The city’s code snippet available in the search results shows at least one fee formula for another permit type, not an ADU-specific charge, so exact ADU permit and pre-development fees should be verified directly with the Building Department.

Fee overview
The available results do not provide an ADU-specific fee schedule for South Bend.
Secondary sources in the search results mention broad permit cost ranges, but they are not official and were not used to populate exact fees.
Utility, school, and impact fees may exist, but no official South Bend or local district fee data for ADUs was surfaced in the provided results.
The user is asking about ADU-related pre-development and permit fees, not zoning eligibility or design rules.
Because the official fee schedule was not visible in the search results, fee amounts are left null rather than inferred from secondary sources.
South Bend fee estimates should be verified against the current city, utility, and school district fee schedules before filing.
