What matters for this in Orange County
A demolition permit in Orange County needs the utility disconnect letters and the asbestos notice in hand; EPD also looks at tree removal on the lot, which is easy to trip over on an older, wooded parcel.
Orange County parcels carry overlays a quick zoning lookup misses: the Wekiva Study Area in the northwest, the Econlockhatchee River protection corridor in the east, and Rural Settlement boundaries that cap density regardless of the zoning district. The Environmental Protection Division (EPD) conservation-area and tree rules decide how much of a wooded lot is actually buildable.

Pre-construction fees are credited in full against the construction contract price at signing.
- Applies to full-cycle building agreements (a home on your lot or custom home, a turnkey ADU, or a custom detached multi-car garage or workshop) with a contract value of $100,000 or more.
- Fees are earned as each filing, audit or field visit is completed and are not refundable. The credit is applied against the final construction draw or the pre-construction contract balance, never paid out in cash.
