Why Choose Us
Indian Creek Village is one of the only municipalities in Florida with a formal Permit Expeditor Authorization Form requirement. Without this form, any application submitted by a permit expeditor on behalf of a contractor is not accepted for processing.
We know:
- That a Permit Expeditor Authorization Form is required for every permit application submitted by a permit expeditor on behalf of a contractor, and this is one of the only formal expeditor authorization requirements in the state of Florida — missing this form causes rejection at intake
- That a non-refundable upfront fee of 1% of the cost of work is required at the time of permit submittal, separate from final permit fees, and applications submitted without this upfront fee are not processed
- That contractors must carry Workers Compensation insurance with Employer's Liability of no less than $1,000,000 for companies with more than the statutory minimum number of employees — a higher limit than most Miami-Dade municipalities require
- That Indian Creek Village permits only 41 single-family primary dwelling units on the island, making every project highly scrutinized and managed at the Village level with detailed documentation requirements
- That all permit application documentation follows the October 31, 2025 updated requirements and older application packages are not accepted at Village Hall
- That DERM coordination is required for projects near Indian Creek waterway and Biscayne Bay, and Indian Creek Island's location between the bay and the Intracoastal means most exterior and new construction projects trigger coastal agency reviews
- That Miami-Dade County 40-year building recertification requirements apply to all applicable structures in Indian Creek Village except single-family residences, duplexes, and minor structures meeting the exemption criteria
- That because Indian Creek Village is accessible only by bridge, construction logistics including material delivery and contractor access require advance coordination with the Village to avoid disruption to residents and traffic on the single bridge entrance
