				item is not covered by the methodology in these rules, a municipality may
				either, develop a reasonable permit fee, or calculate a fee using a similar
				program area's methodology. These rules do not supersede or repeal the existing
				provisions of the state building code and related rules. These rules become
				effective on January 1, 2009.
