Patio permits and the City's flatwork line
Bellmead's Master Fee Schedule names that $75 fee but not the jobs it covers, and the document carries no date. Ask Community Development whether a new patio or an extension needs the permit before the forms go in, because the City says proceeding without a required building permit is illegal.
Slope and depth have their own guidance. Building America, the U.S. Department of Energy's program, says patio slabs and other hard surfaces laid within 10 feet of a house's foundation should drop away from the house at a 2% grade, and ENERGY STAR's figure for new homes is a slope of 0.25 inch per foot or more. Ohio Concrete's recommendation gives 3½ inches as the usual minimum for a patio, matching the depth of the 2 x 4 boards commonly used as forms.
For a pattern, compare stamped patio finishes; a tired slab that is still sound may only need resurfacing an old patio, and the full Bellmead list has the rest.

Ask, then lay out
The permit question goes to the City, and the footprint, thickness and fall away from the house are marked.
Grade, form and pour
Grading sets the fall, the base is tamped firm, forms go up and the concrete is placed.
Broom and cure
A broom texture gives a non-slip surface, and the slab cures before chairs and a grill go on it.
