Flagler County, FL - Flagler County will waive some building permit fees in order to fast-track the permitting process for those who have property damage following Hurricane Irma.
The county fees will be waived for permits related to hurricane damage until November 13th.
“We want people to get started on their repairs as quickly as possible,” says Building Official Mark Boice. “We’re able to make exceptions for certain types of permits or inspection. The work has to be for storm-related damage. We will be open Tuesday morning to issue permits.”
Special exceptions will be made for the next 60 days in the following areas:
Contractors must be registered with Contract Licensing to work in Flagler County. Proof of License and Liability Insurance is required.
Residents with questions about either permits or inspections are urged to call the Flagler County Building Department at 386-313-4002.
