NEW! Glendale City Council Adopts Plan to Increase Inspection Fees 

On June 25th, the City Council adopted a comprehensive update to several Fire Prevention Bureau’s (FPB) service fees, effective July 2024. The new fees more accurately reflect current trends and the associated staffing costs necessary to maintain vital city services. 

The revised schedule is anticipated to increase our rate of cost recovery to 67% by adjusting the fees.

A few key Fire Service Fee Increases:

• Vegetation Management Program (VMP) fee increased from $15 to $42 annually.
• The Residential Inspection Fee increased from $36 to $84.

Throughout the fee update process, FPB’s goal was to utilize a balanced approach that meets the needs of the City’s residents while more accurately reflecting current industry trends.
