About each permit
Certificate of Competency (CTQB)
Every fee figure above was read directly from the city's own published CTQB fee schedule. The Board's own transactional portal (contrades.coj.net) has refused every connection this research attempted, so these figures rest on the city's published schedule alone rather than a second Board-run source. No bond is currently required: the Code of Ordinances section that used to state a CTQB bond amount, section 342.106, is now marked "Reserved," with its own editor's note stating the former bond provisions were deleted as part of the Code's Super Supplement — the current text is affirmatively silent, not merely unreached. A $5,000 bond figure circulating on third-party surety-bond marketing sites is not supported by that text and is not used here. This local certificate sits alongside, not instead of, the state Construction Industry Licensing Board license already recorded at the Florida state layer — a contractor working in Jacksonville needs both for a state-registered trade category.
