Services During a State of Emergency

Introduced·1/6/26

Florida S1260 mandates emergency management training and expedited building permit procedures post-hurricane.

Florida S1260 requires the Division of Emergency Management and the Department of Business and Professional Regulation to develop a training program for building inspectors and plans examiners. Local governments must also develop training programs for local amendments to the Florida Building Code. The bill mandates that counties and municipalities create poststorm permitting plans to expedite recovery and rebuilding. These plans must ensure sufficient personnel for postdisaster building inspection, permitting, and enforcement, and identify methods to expedite permit processing.
