Development Review Fast Tracking & Customer Service Initiative

Top 10 Ways to Speed Up The Permitting Process

  • Provide a complete package of required information at the time of submittal.
  • Apply for the Cultural Resource Clearance Letter at the conception of the project rather than waiting until pre-submittal or later.
  • Meet with staff to discuss a project at the earliest point possible.
  • Take advantage of the pre-submittal process. This is a free meeting with input provided by all staff involved in the development review process (Traffic, Utilities, Solid Waste, etc.).
  • Work with the Water Management District early in the process so the project can be designed in a manner that meets both State and City requirements.
  • If you anticipate complex environmental issues with your site, schedule a meeting with the Land Use Biologist 850-891-7100 early in the process so we can assist in finding resolution to complex permitting scenarios.
  • If off-site slope mitigation is likely, find the area to be used for the mitigation prior to the pre-submittal meeting.
  • Take advantage of the simultaneous review process where site plan, environmental permit, and building permit reviews take place concurrently.
  • Respond to staff's permit review comments in a timely manner.
  • Applicant should schedule a meeting with staff to go over their response to permit review comments prior to resubmittal of the application.
