New DPIE Fees Start March 2
DPIE will implement fee changes beginning March 2, 2025, to help fund the issuance of permits and licenses. The new fees were scheduled to be implemented on February 17, 2025; we have extended the date to March 2, 2025. The new fees will apply to permits applied for on or after March 2. Fees for permits applied for before March 2, 2025, will be based on the previous fee structure. The County Council approved the updated fee schedule in November 2024 in CR-087-2024.
Under the new formula, fees will increase 20 percent, with a 10 percent technology fee. The increase means that an applicable fee which costs $50 under the previous fee schedule will increase to $60, plus a 10% technology fee. The new fees will be posted in the 2025 DPIE Fee Schedule. To view the legislation, visit the Prince George’s County Legislative/Zoning Information System (LZIS), CR-087-2024.
