Cocoa Beach issues building, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, and roofing permits through the Development Services Department's Building Division. Applications are submitted online through the city's OpenGov permitting portal, which handles building permits, business tax receipts, and land use or planning applications. The portal uses a single BLDG Building Permit application for construction work rather than separate trade applications. Each page of the portal has a question mark icon with step by step guidance, and Development Services takes questions about submitting an application at 321-868-3298. After a permit application is submitted, the city reviews the plans for code and zoning compliance, confirms that the contractor is licensed and insured, and inspects the completed work. The Building Division schedules and performs the inspections; call the Building Division at 321-868-3217 to confirm how to request one for your permit.
