Demolition permits in Osceola County

Permitting is where residential demolition actually stalls, and every city inside the county runs its own building department with its own forms and its own clock. Here is where each one submits. We pull these ourselves on jobs where we are the contractor of record.

Jurisdiction	Department	Where it submits	Published turnaround	NOC threshold
Osceola County (unincorporated)	Osceola County Building & Permitting Office (Community Development)	Osceola County Permit Center (permits.osceola.org; the City of Kissimmee site links to it under an 'accela' path, so likely Accela, not confirmed on the county page)	Residential permits usually 3 to 5 business days (general residential review; not…	$5,000 or more (labor and materials), per the Osceola County Building Office FAQ
City of Kissimmee	City of Kissimmee Development Services	Citizen Self-Service Portal (Tyler EnerGov)	Not published	Not published
City of St. Cloud	City of St. Cloud Building Department	St. Cloud Online Permit Application Submittals (city FormCenter); status, inspections and payment at Building Permit Portal https://stcloudflpermits.selectpaytoday.com/	Not published	$5,000.00 or more (per the city's online Demolition Permit Application)

Checked against official county and city pages on 2026-10-13. Fees and turnaround change without notice, so confirm with the building department before relying on any line of this. We publish it because nobody else does, not as a substitute for the county.

Historic review in Osceola County

A structure inside a historic district or overlay cannot be permitted for demolition on the building permit alone. It goes to a review board first, and that board meets on its own calendar. This is the most common reason a teardown slips a month.

City of Kissimmee. Reviewed by the Kissimmee Historic Preservation Board. Kissimmee LDC (Municode Ch. 14-3) gives the Historic Preservation Board powers over Historic Preservation Overlay districts and landmarks, with major and minor Certificates of Appropriateness (sec. 14-3-37). Development Services staffs the board. A Kissimmee…
City of St. Cloud. Reviewed by the St. Cloud Historic Preservation Board (HPB). Ordinance 2016-55 created the Historic Preservation Overlay District and the HPB, which meets about monthly (no July or December meetings).

What is required on nearly every job

Notice of commencement, recorded, not just signed
Owner authorization to permit, notarized
Survey or site plan marking the structure
Asbestos survey and the FDEP notice, at least 10 working days before demolition
Utility disconnect letters for electric, gas and water or sewer
Septic abandonment through the Health Department where the lot is on septic

Permitting, asbestos abatement, septic and well abandonment and tree mitigation are quoted separately or handled by others. That is printed on every proposal rather than turning up later as a change order.
