Choose appropriate space/fee factor for the business type

If there is only one practitioner and the size of the practice is less than 1200 square feet:

• factor is 400.
• there is no max.

If there is more than one practitioner OR the practice is larger than 1200 square feet:

• factor is 200.
• max is 5x the number of practitioners.

Calculate the number of spaces needed

Divide the size of the property by factor. Limited by max.

Calculate the fee

1. Find out how many addiitonal spaces are required by subtracting the existing number of spaces from the spaces_needed.
2. Multiply this by a fixed constant, 106.25.
