A fee not to exceed one hundred dollars shall be charged to and collected from the owner, lessee or person conducting the place of assembly for each inspection, but not more than two hundred dollars in any one year shall be so charged or collected, in respect of the same premises, except that no fee shall be charged for inspection of buildings operated as a public place of assembly by any political subdivision or by an agricultural society or association receiving state aid; provided, however, that no fee shall be charged to or collected from a volunteer fire company or an organization of veterans for the inspection of any place of public assembly operated by such a volunteer fire company or organization of veterans.
