Application Process
- Confirm the parcel is inside Greenville town limits.

- If the project is in a flood hazard area, comply with the town's floodplain development permit requirements under its land development code.
- Complete the actual building permit intake through the county process unless Greenville provides a newer town-specific permit workflow not published on the current website.
- Obtain all local and county approvals before starting work.

General Requirements
No land, building, or structure may be erected, moved, enlarged, altered, or maintained except in conformity with Greenville's land development code. No development order or building permit shall be issued except in conformity with the code.
- Building code
- Florida Building Code, 8th Edition (2023). Greenville's land development code layers town development standards and floodplain administration on top. Wind design requirements remain site-specific under the current FBC and must be confirmed for the exact Greenville project location.
Fees
- Payment note
- I did not verify a current public Greenville building permit fee schedule. Greenville's land development code contemplates filing fees and related review procedures, but I did not verify a current adopted schedule posted on the official site. Applicants should confirm both town review charges and county building permit fees before submittal.
