Does a masonry job under $7,500 need a permit in Boynton Beach?
It still might, because the city's exemption for single-family work under $7,500, in effect since July 2026, comes with significant limits, and structural work, fences and driveways on a single-family house still need a permit whatever they cost. The exemption covers only a complete single project that isn't split to stay under the line, you or your contractor has to request it in writing, and any property partly or fully in a flood hazard area still needs a permit. The city lays it out on its permit exemption page, and we'll go over where your job falls at the estimate.
