Broward is High-Velocity Hurricane Zone country, and the plans have to read that way the first time. Sealed permit plans for seawalls and docks, pergolas and patio covers, decks, additions and new homes from Parkland to Weston. Fixed fee, quoted the same business day.
All of Broward is High-Velocity Hurricane Zone: products need a Miami-Dade NOA or a Florida approval valid in the HVHZ, and the structural set has to show the HVHZ provisions of the Florida Building Code. Most Broward cities run their own building departments. New and substantially repaired seawalls on tidal water also have to meet the minimum seawall-top elevation that Broward County and Fort Lauderdale now require.
