Welcome to the Longwood Building Division

Thank you for taking the time to visit our site and allowing us to assist you with your project. As the Building Division, we are committed to providing you with the tools and assistance you and your team need in order to help get your project moving. The Building Division is responsible for taking in permit applications, administering the permit review process, issuing permits, performing inspections, and issuing certificates of occupancy. 

Our permitting and inspection process is now fully capable to meet the needs of the digital era. You will find this process to be a time-saver that will allow you and your team to submit for permitting, schedule inspections, pay applicable fees, print permit cards, and print out a completed Certificate of Occupancy at your convenience from your home or office.

You can access our digital SmartGov permitting system here.

This portal will allow for the submittal of all permit application types, and also includes the ability to submit business tax receipt applications.  This program provides a much more robust, and interactive permit/application submittal process.
