Category: General Inquiry Development Services

Manatee County Online Services enables you to do business with the Development Services Department without ever having to come to our offices.

Our Online Services Portal is available to everyone, including homeowners, permitting services, agents and contractors, allowing you to:

  • remotely submit applications and payments for permitting, licensing, planning and zoning.
  • track your project’s progress from submittal through final approval from the convenience of your connected home/office computers or mobile devices
  • submit Code Enforcement complaints
Each contractor will need to register and add agents/delegates under their license. Each agent will also need to set up their own account. We will not be accepting new authorized agent forms in office.

Please contact our offices if you require assistance.
