Demolition Permits in Pinellas County
Demolition can involve more than the building department. Utility disconnections, asbestos rules, debris handling, and property specific conditions may apply before work starts.
Demolition requires both the correct local building permit and separate Pinellas County Air Quality asbestos compliance. County guidance requires an asbestos survey by a state-licensed asbestos consultant and a NESHAP demolition notification before demolition; the air-quality requirement is separate from the building permit. For County BDRS properties, Demolition is a residential permit record type. Inside an independent municipality, use that city's demolition permit process while still applying the countywide air-quality requirement.
