Why use a private provider in Fort Myers Beach?

A Florida private provider is a licensed professional you hire under F.S. 553.791 for plan review and building code inspections instead of waiting on Fort Myers Beach Building Department. FCC reviews plans (single-family reviews in hours) and runs live and offline virtual inspections. You still file the permit and NTBO with Fort Myers Beach Building Department; zoning, floodplain, site, and other non-building-code reviews stay with the jurisdiction.

How private provider works in Fort Myers Beach

From plan submission to permit, here is exactly how it works in Fort Myers Beach.

  1. Upload your plans

    Submit your construction documents through the myFCC app for Fort Myers Beach projects. We confirm receipt and begin review.

  2. Get your plan review

    FCC reviews your plans for Florida Building Code compliance. If approved, you receive stamped plans and the NTBO, filled out for your project, in myFCC.

  3. File with Fort Myers Beach

    You or your permit tech files the signed NTBO, stamped plans, and permit application with Fort Myers Beach. Private provider review under FL 553.791 can shorten the review portion of the timeline. The building department must also reduce the permit fee and may not charge plan review or inspection fees for the work FCC performs.

  4. Request inspections

    Request inspections through the myFCC app when the work is ready, by live video or offline submission.

  5. FCC files the COC

    Once required FCC inspections pass, FCC files the Certificate of Compliance with Fort Myers Beach for the private-provider scope. Jurisdiction-retained items still stay with the AHJ.
