Kansas City ADU Permit Fees & Cost Calculator
Kansas City’s official fee schedule is published in the city’s Building Code fee schedule, but the extracted search result does not expose specific ADU line-item amounts. The best-supported finding is that permit and plan review fees are governed by Article 1, Section 18, and must be verified directly in the city fee schedule before budgeting an ADU project.

Fee overview
Do not rely on third-party fee ranges for final budgeting without checking the city fee schedule.
If the project includes utility service changes, utility connection or tap fees may apply separately and should be confirmed with the utility provider or city departments.
The available official source confirms where the fee schedule lives, but not the ADU-specific line items; direct verification is required before permitting.
