The County Commission is considering a motion to direct the County Attorney's Office to draft a Resolution that would amend Sections 40.1 and 40.23 of the Broward County Administrative Code. This change would update the fees charged for services related to development and environmental permitting. The item is currently pending and under review, meaning the fee schedule has not been finalized. If approved, this would set in motion a process to revise the fee structure for permits, which could affect the cost of future projects. The scope of work involves administrative and legal work to draft the resolution, not physical construction. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers who work on development or environmental projects should pay attention to this fee update. Reaching out early to the County Commission or the staff contact could help you understand how the new fees might impact your business and upcoming projects. This is an early opportunity to stay informed before the new fee schedule is adopted.
