Welcome to the City of Plantation Department of Building Safety.  Building Safety ensures the safety and stability of all structures within the City by enforcing all building codes and city codes including, but not limited to, the Florida Building Code, accessibility and life safety codes.

We continually strive to maintain a customer friendly atmosphere, along with prompt, efficient delivery of services for all our customers, to make it the best permitting department in the county.

The Department of Building Safety offers several automated permit services: Online Permitting and Permit Information Line. We encourage you to take advantage of them. Through these services you can apply for a “simple” permit (online only), schedule an inspection, obtain inspection results, check plan review status, and check the status of your permit.
