About each permit

Administrative Use Permit for the Sale of Alcoholic Beverages

Land Development Code §402.5.D states that it applies to Alcoholic Beverage Business Establishments in unincorporated Pasco County. The permit may be requested only for property zoned C-1, C-2, C-3 or I-1, MPUD areas designated for those uses, or property where the Board of County Commissioners has specifically allowed alcohol sales. Under §402.5.D.6, an establishment proposing on-premises consumption within 1,000 feet of a pre-K through 12th grade public or private school, a place of religious worship or a County park must first obtain a Waiver of Specific Distance from the Planning Commission, which may grant it on a showing that physical barriers or other factors make the separation unnecessary. Package sales, supermarket sales and off-premises beer sales are exempt as listed in §402.5.D.3, and bottle clubs are prohibited. The $620 fee is in Resolution 24-030, which the Planning and Development Documents and Forms page links as the current Fee Schedule. The state alcoholic beverage license is a separate product of the DBPR Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco.

Home Based Business Affidavit of Compliance

The Pasco County Fee Schedule adopted November 14, 2023 (Resolution 24-030) lists a Home Based Business Affidavit of Compliance at $75, a Planning and Development product for a business run from a residence under the county's Land Development Code in unincorporated Pasco County. The schedule is the one the Planning and Development Documents and Forms page links as current. A home based business also needs the county Business Tax Receipt from the Tax Collector, recorded above.

State Beverage License Zoning Verification

The Pasco County Fee Schedule adopted November 14, 2023 (Resolution 24-030), which the Planning and Development Documents and Forms page links as the current Fee Schedule, lists a State Beverage License Zoning Verification at $50 as its own line. The same schedule states that the $620 Administrative Use Permit for the Sale of Alcoholic Beverages includes this verification, so an applicant who obtains that permit does not pay the $50 separately for it.

Written Zoning Verification

A Written Zoning Verification confirms a parcel's zoning from Pasco County Planning, Development and Economic Growth, and the Pasco County Fee Schedule adopted November 14, 2023 (Resolution 24-030) lists it at $50. The same schedule lists a separate $50 State Zoning Verification for assisted living facilities, community residential homes and daycares. The schedule is the one the Planning and Development Documents and Forms page links as current. It covers parcels under the county's Land Development Code, which governs unincorporated Pasco County.

Building Signs Review (Planning and Development)

The Signs section of the Pasco County Fee Schedule adopted November 14, 2023 (Resolution 24-030) lists 'Building Signs (per application)' at $120, and lists sign permits under a unified sign plan at $200. The Land Development Code's sign provisions state that they apply to signs in the unincorporated area of the county. This Planning fee is separate from the Building Construction Services sign permit fee recorded above; the two come from different agencies and are not one combined fee.
