Desoto Lakes & Sarasota County Permit Guide
Paperwork shouldn’t stop you from getting your building. Here’s a plain-English look at the local requirements – and how we make them easy.
Do you need a permit?
Sarasota County requires a building permit for most detached sheds; only very small one-story accessory structures (roughly under 100 sq ft with no utilities) may be exempt, and zoning setbacks still apply. Permits for unincorporated areas are issued by Sarasota County Planning and Development Services at the new One Stop on Apex Road.
Wind load
Sarasota County sits on Florida’s Southwest Gulf coast with ultimate design wind speeds around 150-160 MPH, and areas near the shoreline fall inside the wind-borne-debris region. Desoto Lakes’ inland-suburban location moderates coastal exposure. Keen’s buildings are engineered to 160 MPH Exposure C by a Florida-licensed P.E. (#53439), with 180 MPH upgrades available.
Setbacks & placement
Sheds generally belong in a rear or side yard and must clear minimum distances from property lines, easements, and septic. Exact setbacks vary by your zoning district – we’ll help you plan the footprint.
How Keen’s helps
When your project needs a permit, we provide the signed & sealed engineered drawings (FL P.E. #53439) required for your application – included at no extra cost.
