City of West Park building permit and inspection services are provided by CAP Government, Inc. The City Building Department remains the local filing point and publishes the permit application, checklists, fee schedule and online portal instructions.
What requires a building permit in West Park?
West Park requires applicants to start with the City’s Building Department forms and checklists. The published process calls for the Broward County Uniform Building Permit Application, a Notice of Commencement when applicable and project-specific documents identified by the City checklist.
The city also has separate planning and zoning and engineering reviews, so a project can need zoning or right-of-way and drainage approval as well as the building permit.
- Building permit package — Uniform application, applicable Notice of Commencement, plans and the city checklist for the permit type.
- Additional city review — Planning/zoning and engineering permits are handled separately where the project scope triggers them.

The city directs electronic permit applications to Citizenserve. West Park also participates in Broward County’s ePermits OneStop for county-level agency reviews.
West Park Planning & Zoning separately reviews building permits for compliance with the City’s Zoning and Land Development Code. That review covers matters such as permitted use, setbacks, height, parking, landscaping and signage. A building-code approval therefore does not eliminate the need for local zoning compliance.

When a project needs Broward County reviews, the city links to Broward resources for asbestos certificates, transportation and environmental review, Notice of Commencement information and AccessBROWARD accounts. Those county reviews run alongside the West Park building permit; they do not replace it.
West Park permit fees
West Park publishes a Building Department permit fee schedule on its building page. The amount depends on the permit type. The city does not accept cash: pay by check or money order made out to the City of West Park, in person or by mail to City Hall.
Zoning, engineering and Broward County agency charges are separate from the building permit fee.
