Dock, shoreline and wetland project reviews in Palm Beach County

A waterfront project can require local building or zoning approvals plus applicable County ERM, SFWMD, Florida DEP and federal reviews. Determine the exact parcel, water body, ownership or submerged land rights and work description before choosing permit classes. Ask the relevant agencies about wetlands, environmental resource permits, water use and coastal constraints. A building jurisdiction boundary does not establish submerged land ownership or exemption from environmental permits. Do not start work while applicability or approvals are unresolved.
