Looks up permit fees for a work type in a given jurisdiction
Searches for a jurisdiction''s permit fee schedule, fetches the relevant page, and extracts the fees that apply to a specified work type. Returns the fee amount, the fee basis (flat versus valuation-based), and a link to the source schedule. Covers the slog of clicking through municipal websites one project at a time.
