Florida H1109 establishes emergency building inspection and permitting protocols and training programs.

Florida H1109 mandates that counties and municipalities create post-hurricane or tropical storm permitting plans to expedite recovery and rebuilding. These plans must ensure sufficient personnel are available for post-disaster building inspection, permitting, and enforcement tasks. The Division of Emergency Management and the Department of Business and Professional Regulation are required to develop a Florida Building Code training program. Local governments with local amendments to the Florida Building Code must also develop training programs on applicable local amendments.
