How Palma resolves unpermitted work & alterations in Sanford

The City of Sanford runs its own Building Division, taking applications through the Citizenserve portal under Chapter 18 (Buildings and Building Regulations) of the city code, while unincorporated Seminole County permits through its Building Division under Chapter 40 (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.

Sanford sits on Lake Monroe and the St. Johns River, so riverfront and low-lying parcels fall in mapped FEMA flood zones where base-flood elevation applies, while wind-load and energy-code compliance drive most plan-review comments elsewhere. The city's older historic-district housing stock is exactly where legacy unpermitted work, expired permits, and open permits surface, and where Palma's coordination gets a case to a clean closeout.
