Online Resources

With our new online services, you may view and conduct searches for permits and business tax receipts, check history of a parcel, review the status of a permit, schedule inspections, check inspection status, and pay fees.

The department also offers a detailed library of forms and applications for development and planning, as well as reports of the City's new business and permits issued for greater than $15,000 in construction value.

The following guides are available:

• Commercial Development Guide
• Residential Development Guide

Renters may review our Residential Rental Guide (2.5 MB PDF file) online to learn about the City's regulation of rental properties. Citizens are advised to call (727) 562-4567 for the current occupational license fee, as they may have changed since the original ordinances in the guide were passed.

Related advisory board minutes, including the Community Development & Municipal Code Advisory Boards, can be found on the public records document archives.
