The City of Destin permits work within city limits through its own Building and Permitting Division, enforcing the 2023 Florida Building Code (8th edition) with modified flood provisions, while unincorporated Okaloosa County permits through its Growth Management department and the permits.myokaloosa.com portal under Chapter 6 (Building Code) of the county code, so the first step is confirming which authority holds your record. Under Florida Statute 553.791, a licensed private provider can perform plan review and inspections in place of staff.
This is an Emerald Coast resort market, so Gulf-front and Choctawhatchee Bay parcels sit in FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas and the wind-borne debris region, with the county applying ASCE 7-22 wind criteria, making base-flood elevation, opening protection, and product approvals frequent review triggers. Heavy short-term-rental turnover and storm repairs are exactly where open permits, expired permits, and unpermitted work surface, and where Palma's coordination saves the most time.
