The permit path depends on the city and the work. A Miami interior alteration and a Fort Lauderdale interior alteration are not the same filing.
Step 1. Confirm the authority: City of Miami, Coral Gables, Doral, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, or another municipality.
Step 2. Submit the drawings the reviewer expects for that scope. An interior build-out is not filed like a new building.
Step 3. Answer plan-review comments. The clock often sits here, not in construction.
Step 4. Build only what the permit allows, and call the inspections in the order the city requires.
Step 5. Close the permit. Landlord closeout can be a separate list.
MUST coordinates this path as the contractor. The city decides the comments. This is not a legal opinion.
