When I had my roof done, the city charged me $60 for a roofing permit. The permit (which I had to put in my window) also meant the city would pick up whatever roofing material I dragged to the curb. 18,000 lbs. of shingles and felt, or roughly two dumptrucks full. I'd say I got my money's worth.
The city did change the law in December (I finished my roof in September) raise the price of the permits, plus now each load the front-end loader picks up costs $50.
The permit + pickup fees would have run me around $600 had I done the roof this year.
