It's difficult to lose so much of what makes your house a home. We understand the idea of repairing and rebuilding is overwhelming, and we are here to help you build back stronger. In the aftermath of the recent hurricanes, the city of Clearwater will waive building permit fees for residents trying to make repairs after the storm. The waiver will be for residential customers across the city who are most seriously impacted. It will not apply to businesses. A pop-up permitting site will be open starting at noon Tuesday, Oct. 15 at the Clearwater Beach Recreation Center, 69 Bay Esplanade, on the tennis courts. After that, it will be open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Staff will be on hand to answer questions, help with and issue permits. Look for the Clearwater Police Department command bus. Residents can also apply for building permits at the Municipal Services Building, 100 S. Myrtle Ave. when it reopens. The Planning and Development Department is located on the second floor. Residents or business owners who need repairs are reminded to always use licensed contractors. For more information on the permitting process, call (727) 562-4567 during business hours or email epermit@myclearwater.com.
