Las Vegas ADU Permit Fees & Cost Calculator

Las Vegas has an official building permit fee estimator that charges either 1% of construction valuation or $1,000 per dwelling unit for single-family dwelling units, whichever is less, plus a separate traffic impact fee of $195 per single dwelling. ADU-specific utility connection, school, or other impact fees were not clearly identified in the official city sources provided, so those items should be verified case-by-case.

ADUFee.com is not affiliated with Las Vegas. Estimates are informational and should be verified with the city, utility providers, and qualified professionals.

The calculator uses staged city data from the ADUFee database with visible confidence levels and dated source tracking.

Fee overview

Official city sources provided do not clearly list ADU-specific school district fees, utility connection fees, or all plan-check/inspection charges.

The permit fee estimator language is general; the exact fee treatment for an ADU should be verified with the city for the specific scope and valuation.

Third-party web results mentioning $1,500 to $3,500 for Las Vegas ADU permits are not official and were not used as the basis for numeric fields.

The queried property is within the City of Las Vegas jurisdiction, not unincorporated Clark County or another municipality.

The ADU is being reviewed as a residential accessory dwelling unit on a single-family lot, but the city fee estimator does not clearly isolate ADU-only fees.

Las Vegas fee estimates should be verified against the current city, utility, and school district fee schedules before filing.
