New Broward County Uniform Building Permit Application (Nov 25, 2025)

Posted: November 25, 2025

Published by: Building Department -

The Broward County Board of Rules & Appeals (BORA) has released a new countywide Uniform Building Permit Application (revision date 11/14/2025).

The City of Pompano Beach is now accepting this new application form for all building permit submittals.

During a transition period, we will continue to accept the previous application form through December 31, 2025. After that date, only the new Uniform Building Permit Application will be accepted.

Key Changes on the New Application

  1. Private Provider Indicator
    At the top of the form, applicants must now indicate whether the permit is associated with a Private Provider.

  2. License-Exempt Contractor Option and BTR Number
    In Section 3 (Contractor Information), contractors who are exempt from holding a state contractor’s license (for example, certain flooring, tree trimming, sealcoating, striping, sign erection, and paver installation work) may select the license-exempt option.

    • In these cases, the contractor must provide their Business Tax Receipt (BTR) number issued by their local municipality.

Where to Get the New Form
