The City of Tampa has introduced a new tool designed to simplify the residential permitting process for homeowners and permit applicants. The tool, named Permit Navigator or PermitNav, guides users through a series of questions to streamline the permit pre-application process and help them quickly identify the necessary permits for their projects.
“Unless they regularly apply for permits, the average homeowner needs guidance to navigate the application process," said JC Hudgison, Chief Building Official/Construction Services Manager for the City of Tampa. “We have had residents spend hours applying for a commercial permit when what they really needed was a residential one. PermitNav is their personal, online, permit specialist that walks them through a series of questions to help identify which permits they will need."
Since 2020, Tampa has seen a steady increase in residential permit applications. Between October 2023 and March 2024, more than 13,000 residential and commercial permits were issued with a total value of $1.8 billion.
