Crestview Development Services administers building safety and land use regulations to protect public health and support responsible growth in our community.
Our mission
Crestview Development Services is the City of Crestview's official building and permitting authority. We administer the adopted building, fire, and zoning codes to ensure that construction within city limits is safe, code-compliant, and consistent with community standards.
Our department employs certified plan reviewers, licensed building inspectors, and experienced counter staff committed to helping residents and contractors navigate the permitting process efficiently.
Our values
Every permit and inspection is rooted in life-safety codes designed to protect occupants, neighbors, and first responders. We do not cut corners on compliance.
Applicants receive written comments with specific code references. You always know exactly what is needed and why before we ask for a revision.
We answer the phone, return emails within one business day, and staff a public counter for walk-in assistance. Our online portal is available 24/7.
Our reviewers work collaboratively with applicants to find code-compliant solutions that enable development while maintaining community standards.
