Cutler Bay permit specialists.
Cutler Bay incorporated in 2005, which means a lot of local property history sits in two places at once — Miami-Dade County records for anything before the Town, and the Town's own Building Division after. Open permits, expired permits and unpermitted work surface at the worst possible moment: a sale, a refinance, or an insurance renewal. We resolve permit violations, after-the-fact permits and open-permit closeouts through the Town of Cutler Bay Building Division.
At a glance — Cutler Bay
- Permitting authority: Town of Cutler Bay Building Division (Community Development), 10720 Caribbean Boulevard, Suite 110
- Distinctive local rule: The Town requires a current survey with the submittal and enforces a corner sight-triangle standard written into its own code — a common reason fence, wall and accessory-structure applications get bounced
- Two records to check: property history before 2005 sits with Miami-Dade County, not the Town — a search of only one will miss permits

Why permits work differently here.
The Town of Cutler Bay Building Division operates out of the Town Center at 10720 Caribbean Boulevard, Suite 110, with a public counter open weekday mornings and early afternoons. Cutler Bay is a young municipality with a specific permitting personality: it wants a clean, complete package on the first submittal — a current survey, the site plan, and the product-approval documentation — and it reviews plans in-house rather than routing everything to the county.
The complication unique to Cutler Bay is the 2005 incorporation line. Anything permitted before the Town existed lives in Miami-Dade County's records; anything after lives with the Town. A property that changed hands in 2003 and again in 2015 can carry open items in both systems. Searching one and not the other is how an open permit survives three closings and then stops the fourth.
The whole Town sits inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so any exterior structure — roof, window, shutter, screen enclosure, fence, shed — needs a current Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance on file. Missing product approval is the most common reason an after-the-fact package stalls.
