The Review Process
File notice with the local building department. The municipality continues to process the permit application — Tew & Taylor performs the plan review in parallel.
Plans, specs, and supporting documents are submitted electronically. A reviewer is assigned immediately.
Organized comments returned within 2 business days on average. Each comment identifies the code reference and what is needed to resolve it.
Resubmit revised drawings and Tew & Taylor reviews within 2 days. Most projects complete in 1–2 rounds.
Tew & Taylor submits the signed plan review letter and approved plans. The municipality is legally required to issue the permit.
Average plan review turnaround
Municipal plan review in Florida's busiest markets regularly takes 3–6 weeks per round. Tew & Taylor averages 2 days — meaning a project with two review rounds saves 6–10 weeks on the front end alone.
