Flagged source reviewed 2026-10-16. How we check sources
Jacksonville's online submission guidance explains that Development Services reviews can include zoning, concurrency, landscape and drainage. Which reviews apply depends on permit type, work scope and location; required Development Services reviews finish before Building Inspection review starts. Other agency review can also be required. The City form library separately lists general, building, electrical and mechanical documents and project checklists. Choose the checklist for the actual project rather than treating every listed document as mandatory. Licensed professionals must follow the published digital-signature rules. JaxEPICS is the official filing and inspection portal; StartFL's link is a handoff and does not submit the application, certify plans or report approval.
