Building & Permitting
How permitting works in Florida
Florida cities are the frontline enforcers of the mandatory Florida Building Code. The city role is strictly administrative and technical: they must provide an electronic permitting system, review plans within state-mandated timelines, and ensure that all construction withstands regional hurricane or flood risks.
Mandatory local enforcement of strict state code.
