Enterprise Fund Concept
Building Department permit fees pay for the activities related to enforcement of the Florida Building Code. By Florida law permit fees may only cover building code enforcement activities.
Floodplain management, housing code enforcement and zoning code activities are not funded with building permit fees.
The Building Department has been supported by the General Fund
related to other non-building code activities.

The Building Department is operating with one Building Official, one Building Inspector/Plan Reviewer and
two administrative personnel. The Building Department should anticipate operating at nearly the same level of activity as recent years with a slight increase. The department provides
administrative support to Personnel, Finance, City Administration and the Development Review process. The recent raising of the minimum permit fee appears to be providing adequate
funding for the Building Department activities.
