Apply for a Change of Design Professional

Step 1.Determine your Permit Status

Requirements vary depending on the status of your permit.

If your permit is currently under review, provide the following:

• Owner’s acknowledgement of the change and letter removing the original design professional from the project
• Documentation showing the original design professional has been notified (such as certified mail, written response, or approved equivalent, including tracking information from FedEx or UPS)
• Signed and sealed acknowledgement from the successor design professional accepting responsibility for the existing drawings, or a complete new set of drawings
• If submitting new drawings, the successor design professional must use the same file naming convention as the original plans
• Any additional documentation required to support the change
• Upload all items into ProjectDox when you have an available upload task

If your permit has already been issued, provide the following:

Provide all of the items listed above. In addition, a revision will be required, and all applicable trades will review the updated documents.

Upload all items into ProjectDox. If there is not an open ProjectDox workflow, email digitalpermits@orlando.gov.

Step 2.Complete an Owner Acknowledgement Form
