Building Permit Exemption for Fence and Dock Repairs

Storm-damaged fences and docks may be repaired without a Building Permit, provided the following conditions are met:
• The fence or dock was originally constructed under a valid Building Permit.
• Repairs are limited to board-for-board replacement in the same location.
• Only repairs are permitted under this exemption. The fence or dock cannot be relocated or expanded.

For any other repairs, a Building Permit may be required. Please contact the City of Destin's Building Division at (850) 654-1119 with any questions.
