Work inside the City of Gainesville is permitted by the city's Building Division through the PermitGNV system under Chapter 13 (Housing and Commercial Building Code) of the city code, while unincorporated Alachua County permits through Growth Management under Title 33 (Building Code) of the county code, so the first step is confirming which authority holds your record. Both adopt the Florida Building Code, and under Florida Statute 553.791 a licensed private provider can perform plan review and inspections in place of staff. As a university town, Gainesville sees steady renovation and rental-conversion volume.
North Central Florida is not a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, but wind-load and energy-code compliance drive most plan-review comments, and creek-adjacent and low-lying parcels can fall in mapped FEMA flood zones where base-flood elevation applies. Older near-campus rental stock is exactly where legacy unpermitted work, expired permits, and open permits surface, and where Palma's coordination keeps a project moving to a clean closeout.
