The City of Dunedin Community Development Department runs its own permitting program. The city uses a full-service online permitting system, Enterprise Permitting and Licensing (EP&L) by Tyler Technologies; permits are submitted, reviewed, and approved online through the Dunedin Citizen Self Service (CSS) Portal. Codes in force are the Florida Building Code 8th Edition (2023) and Florida Fire Prevention Code 8th Edition (2023). Note that the city's website is now at dunedin.gov (dunedingov.com redirects there).
Property owners and licensed contractors doing construction, additions, remodels, roofs, or trade work on residential property in the City of Dunedin.
