Plantation Building Department

This place is terrible, at this point I’m not surprised they never answer the phone. I’m only surprised if someone calls back. Maybe once they hire competent building officials that can answer a phone and call back I’ll change my review.

Horrible
Typical example of arrogant, abusive government.I dared to repair my wooden fence without permit after the hurricane damaged a part of it. While about 8 other people replaced their entire fences,Ii was singled out for not having a permit. No courtesy notice, no letter, nothing, City magistrate hearing without my presence. I was able to see their certified mail receipt – there was a fraudulent signature on it, not my name or hand writing.Not even mentioned that when it was delivered i was in the hospital. My cat does not sign receipts either. They say that it does not matter who received the letter as long as somebody somewhere received it and I should take an attorney. For the copy of the fraudulent signature they want almost $ 24.-. No response from the building dept. chief, nobody will talk to you.
From my past experience a number of years ago , their inspectors are abusive garbage too, screwing people on nonsense while not catching real problems.
I cannot believe that these people can entertain their lavish life style and jack pot size retirement benefits at our cost.

Hello guys well went to the city today for a sign permit and I had the pleasure of meeting Joan at the city and she was great to deal with very helpful and nice, keep it up thanks guys!!

The hours specifically state open until 4:30PM Monday – Friday I went to pick up a permit got there at 3:35 PM and was told they are closed that they don’t help anyone after 3:30 PM. Well all I can say is there should be something posted that says we do not help anyone after 3:30 PM. Other than that they are very courteous and helpful would give 5 stars if there wasn’t a time of helping customers issue!

Courteous, friendly, helpful. This city try their best to save you time in their permit processes, althought Zoning Department is still slow. The facility is comfortable and nice design.
