Why a general building / addition-remodel permit takes 13–24 days in Martin County

Permits for unincorporated areas (Palm City, Hobe Sound, Jensen Beach, Port Salerno) run through the Accela Citizen Access portal, with zoning review layered on by the Growth Management Department. The City of Stuart and the island towns of Sewall's Point and Jupiter Island each run their own separate, often stricter, review process — waterfront or oceanfront parcels can pick up additional environmental and landscape conditions no mainland lot sees.

What reviewers check on a general building / addition-remodel submittal

Additions and remodels get structural review and zoning/setback review layered together, so the plan set has to satisfy two reviewers whose comments arrive independently — a setback correction can restart drawings that already cleared structural.
