How Palma resolves unpermitted work & alterations in Marathon

Marathon is an incorporated Middle Keys city, so its Authority Having Jurisdiction is the City of Marathon Building Department - not Monroe County. The city runs its own plan review, permitting, and inspections while adopting the Florida Building Code and operating within the regional Keys land-development framework, including a ROGO/BPAS allocation system for new residential permits. As in the rest of the Keys, Florida Statute 553.791 lets you use a licensed private provider for inspections in place of city staff to keep a project moving.

Almost the entire city sits in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, so base-flood elevation and the cumulative 50%-of-value 'substantial improvement' rule frequently reshape renovations, and high design wind speeds make opening protection and product approvals central to review. Post-Irma repairs left many Marathon properties with open or unpermitted work - the exact situations Palma coordinates to a clean closeout.
