The County residential permit catalog lists Screen Room/Pool Enclosure, Aluminum Structure, Canopy Carport, and Sun Room permit types. A proposed enclosure may change the building footprint or impervious area and must meet zoning setbacks, easements, flood requirements, wind design, and structural connection requirements. Converting a screened porch or lanai to conditioned or enclosed living space is not merely a screen repair; it can change occupancy, energy, structural, glazing, and flood review. Use the actual proposed enclosure type and parcel constraints when answering feasibility.
