Hollywood is located in Broward County and falls within Florida's High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) — one of the most stringent wind design categories in the country. The HVHZ designation applies to Miami-Dade and Broward Counties and requires that all roofing products, windows, doors, and exterior assemblies carry Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) or Florida Product Approval. For new construction and major renovations in Hollywood, the Florida Building Code 8th Edition (2023) applies. All structural construction documents must be sealed by a Florida-licensed Professional Engineer (PE). Architectural drawings require a Florida-licensed Architect (AR). Pineland Engineering holds both licenses: PE 39202 and AR102594. Common permit types processed by the Hollywood Building Division: • New residential construction (single-family, townhome, condo) • Commercial new construction and tenant buildouts • Residential remodels (structural, kitchen, bath, additions) • Roofing permits (HVHZ NOA compliance required) • Screen enclosures and pool cages (wind load engineering required) • Electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits

The City of Hollywood calculates building permit fees based on the valuation of the work. As a general reference: • Minimum permit fee: $75 • Plan review fee: typically 30–35% of the permit fee • State surcharge: 1.5% of the permit fee (Florida Building Code requirement) • Broward County surcharge: varies by project type For an accurate fee estimate, use Pineland Engineering's Florida Permit Fee Estimator or contact the Hollywood Building Division directly. Fees are subject to change — always verify current rates before budgeting.
