Exemption does not apply to this filing

Does Florida’s new $7,500 permit exemption apply to noc filings in Glades County?

The $7,500 exemption does not change Notice of Commencement rules. A Notice of Commencement is a recording requirement tied to the value of the improvement under Florida's construction lien law, not a building permit that HB 803 can waive.

HB 803 (Chapter 2026-63) took effect July 1, 2026 and applies statewide, including Glades County. To qualify, all of the following must be true:

  • The property is a single-family residential property
  • The total value of the work is less than $7,500, based on a written proposal or estimate from a licensed contractor
  • The property is not in a flood hazard area
  • The work is not electrical, plumbing, mechanical, gas, or structural work

The exemption is not self-certifying. A homeowner or contractor submits an exemption request and the building official determines whether the work qualifies. Starting work on the assumption that it does can lead to a stop-work order and an unpermitted-work disclosure when you sell.

NOC Filing questions, answered for Glades County

Does Florida's new $7,500 permit exemption mean I can skip a noc filing in Glades County?

The $7,500 exemption does not change Notice of Commencement rules. A Notice of Commencement is a recording requirement tied to the value of the improvement under Florida's construction lien law, not a building permit that HB 803 can waive. HB 803 (Chapter 2026-63) took effect July 1, 2026 and applies statewide, including Glades County. Where it does apply, it is not automatic: the building official reviews an exemption request and decides.

Who issues an NOC filing in Glades County, Florida?

The Glades County building department issues NOC filings for unincorporated Glades County. If your property sits inside a city's limits, that city's building department issues the permit instead, not the county.

How long does an NOC filing take in Glades County?

NOC Filing approval in Glades County typically takes 1-3 business days to record. That clock starts when the application is accepted as complete, not when it is first submitted, which is why an application that comes back for corrections can add a week or more to the total.

How much does an NOC filing cost in Glades County?

NOC Filing fees in Glades County generally fall in the $25-75 range. Florida counties set their own fee schedules and most calculate them from the declared job valuation, so the final figure depends on the size of your project. Expect separate charges for plan review and for each inspection.

Do I need a Notice of Commencement for an NOC filing in Glades County?

Usually not. NOC Filing work in Glades County is normally below the job value that triggers Florida's Notice of Commencement requirement. If your project grows or is bundled into a larger job, the NOC requirement can still apply, so confirm the threshold before work starts.

Can I pull an NOC filing myself as the homeowner in Glades County?

Often yes. Florida's owner-builder exemption, in section 489.103(7) of the Florida Statutes, lets an owner pull a permit for work on a home they own, subject to conditions the statute attaches, including appearing in person to sign a disclosure statement acknowledging that you take on the responsibilities of a licensed contractor. Check with the Glades County building department before you rely on it.
