Fayetteville ADU Permit Fees & Cost Calculator
Fayetteville appears to charge standard residential plan review, permit, inspection, and utility-related fees for ADU projects, but the official fee schedule excerpt available in search results does not clearly identify a standalone ADU fee. North Carolina law requires ADU permit fees not exceed comparable single-family home permit costs, and local governments cannot require separate utility connections as a condition of ADU approval.[3][2]

Fee overview
The exact Fayetteville ADU fee schedule was not fully exposed in the search excerpts, so no exact total permit cost is provided.
Utility charges may be handled by Fayetteville PWC rather than the city; those exact charges should be verified directly before relying on them.
Some fee items in the city schedule excerpt are clearly commercial or general construction fees and may not apply to a specific ADU permit without confirmation from the city.
The relevant ADU project in Fayetteville would be processed under standard residential permitting rules unless the city specifies a separate ADU workflow.
Because the available official excerpts do not show a dedicated ADU fee line, the safest interpretation is that ADU costs are made up of standard permit, plan review, inspection, and utility-related charges.
NC House Bill 409 is currently the applicable statewide ADU framework in the source material provided.
