Why a screen enclosure permit takes 11–18 days in Broward County

The Broward County Building Department issues permits only for unincorporated areas. Cities within the county — Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, and others — run their own separate building departments with their own timelines.

What reviewers check on a screen enclosure submittal

Screen enclosures are reviewed primarily for wind-load rating on the frame and attachment details — typically a lighter review than a full structural package, which is why the range is shorter than a building permit in the same county.
