Permit running in Broward County

Broward County and its municipalities share ePermits OneStop, a centralized portal that lets a single submittal reach both the municipal building department and the applicable Broward County reviews. It is a genuinely better system than most of South Florida runs.

01What you should know

The lay of the land

  • ePermits OneStop lets customers apply and have plans reviewed online for municipal building permits, Broward County Building Code Division permits, and associated County permits in one place.
  • All Broward County municipalities participate in ePermits OneStop.
  • The consolidated portal removed most of the need to travel to Broward's Government Center West in Plantation.
  • Broward runs its own building recertification program on a schedule distinct from Miami-Dade's.
02Where files die here

Local traps

Every jurisdiction has two or three things that stall files over and over. These are the ones we see in Broward County.

TRAP 01

One portal does not mean one set of rules. Each municipality still applies its own zoning, its own fees, and its own local amendments.

TRAP 02

Environmental review through Broward's environmental permitting is a separate track from building review.

TRAP 03

Municipal review queues vary widely in speed even though the submission path is shared.
