A Testament to the Efficiency of Private Provider Services
In the fast-paced world of construction, time is often of the essence. Delays can cost money, and the efficiency of getting permits can make or break a project’s timeline and budget. This is where Freedom Code Compliance shines with its reliable and swift Private Provider services, exemplified in our recent success story from Hillsborough County.
The Success Story
On September 9th, at precisely 4:54 PM, a diligent pool contractor entrusted their project to our team at Freedom Code Compliance for Plan Review and Inspections. The project was swiftly taken up, and by the next morning at 11:48 AM, we had completed the plan review and issued their plans, stamped by a licensed plans examiner for code compliance.
This expedited process allowed the contractor to complete their Hillsborough County permit application by September 12th. By September 16th, they received their issued permit and were ready to begin work and receive Virtual Inspections from our esteemed Private Provider Inspection Team.
Why Choose Freedom Code Compliance?
Our story illustrates not just a single success but a consistent capability to navigate the intricacies of permit acquisition with unparalleled speed. The benefits of using a Private Provider like Freedom Code Compliance are manifold:
• Timeliness: Our involvement compels building departments to adhere to stricter timelines, facilitating quicker permit issuance.
• Expertise: Our team of experienced providers ensures thorough and efficient plan reviews and inspections, minimizing the usual back and forth with municipal reviews.
• Cost Efficiency: Reducing wait times significantly decreases the carrying costs associated with project delays.
The Legislative Backbone
Underpinning our ability to provide these swift services is the robust framework provided by the Florida Private Provider Statute 553.791. This legislation mandates that once a building department receives a permit application from a contractor using a Private Provider for inspections or plan reviews:
• They have only 20 business days to issue the permit or request corrections.
• If no notice of deficiencies is communicated by the 21st day, the building department must legally issue the permit.
Additionally, once the final inspection is complete and the Private Provider has filed the Inspection Record and Certificate of Compliance:
• The building department has only 2 days to close the permit and issue a Certificate of Occupancy for residential permits and 10 days for commercial permits.
Conclusion
This compelling case study underscores the value and impact of employing Private Provider services in navigating the regulatory landscape. As we look towards the future, with tighter review timelines starting January 1, 2025, the role of Private Providers in ensuring project efficiency will become even more crucial.
