Southeast Sector Planning & Permit Review
For Lake Nona new construction, renovations and commercial tenant spaces, we check the applicable City planning and development standards with the project team. We organize permit applications and supporting documents, manage digital plan uploads and track review comments through corrections and closeout.
Environmental Review & Asbestos Surveys
We check applicable City site, tree and environmental requirements for Lake Nona work. The parcel’s approved development conditions and proposed scope help identify supporting reports and approvals. We coordinate those documents with the responsible professionals and the permit process.
We work with licensed asbestos consultants to arrange surveys and with abatement contractors when removal is needed, coordinating the required paperwork with the permit process.
Orange County’s Environmental Protection Division handles the local asbestos program. We check applicable survey and notification paperwork for demolition or renovation. See the official local asbestos program contacts for project-specific assistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Lake Nona have a separate building department?
Lake Nona is a neighborhood, not a separate municipality. We verify the property’s jurisdiction. Projects within City of Orlando jurisdiction use the City’s permitting process.
How does Orlando’s digital plan review work?
After the permit application is processed, the City sends the digital applicant access instructions for ProjectDox. Commercial applications have a plan review deposit step before that access link is sent. We follow the City’s current instructions for the project.
Do you help with expired or open permits in Lake Nona?
Yes. We research the permit record and outstanding items, identify the next required steps and manage documents, corrections and inspection scheduling with the project team.
What if work was done without a permit?
We research available permit and code violation records, identify the work requiring an after-the-fact application and manage the filing and review process. Any required plans and technical corrections come from the responsible licensed professionals.
Do I need a permit for renovations in Lake Nona?
Permit requirements depend on the proposed work and the property’s jurisdiction. Zone Permitting reviews the project address and scope, checks the applicable building department’s requirements and identifies the applications and supporting documents needed for the work.
