Permits in Volusia County
Who reviews and inspects the work
Volusia County Building and Code Administration
Public pools, which under s. 514.011, F.S., include pools at hotels, apartments and other living projects of five or more units, also need a Florida Department of Health operating permit, and the operating permit application is filed before the building permit application (s. 514.03, F.S.).
The county division runs the Permit Center, building code administration and contractor licensing. Homes inside a city's limits usually permit through that city's own building department; confirm which office covers your address before applying.
