Recent work
Exterior work, which is the work this Town reviews.
Driveways, terraces, freestanding structures and boundary treatment built by Elbaz Construction across South Florida. These are the categories the Town of Bay Harbor Islands names on its exterior modification list. None of the properties shown is in Bay Harbor Islands. Select any frame to open it full size.
The town, defined
Two islands where the outside of the building is public business.
Most municipalities decide how closely to look at a project by how large it is. The Town of Bay Harbor Islands decides by whether it changes the outside. Its own instruction to applicants is that for any exterior modification the Town requires review and approval by the Town Planner and/or the Design Review Board — and the list it publishes alongside that sentence is not limited to structures. It runs additions, awnings, doors, driveways, fences, paint, signs and windows.
Paint is the item that tells you what kind of town this is. On a great many projects the building work is straightforward and the review is the programme: what colour, what profile, what the elevation will look like from the street when it is finished. That is a design conversation, and it happens before the building permit rather than inside it.
The second thing the Town publishes is a clock. Permissible construction hours are set in the Town Code, no contractor work is permitted at weekends or on Town recognised holidays, and the penalty for working outside those hours escalates in published steps that attach stop-work days to money. On two small islands with neighbours on every side, that is enforced because it is noticed.
We work across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, which means the review architecture of a small island town is something we handle as a normal part of the job rather than as an exception.

Scope index
What we build here
Categories are grouped by how the Town’s own published trigger list treats them. Whether a particular scope is an exterior modification is the Town’s determination, made by the Building & Zoning Department — this is the structure, not a determination.
Exterior repainting
The Town lists paint among the modifications requiring review and approval by the Town Planner and/or the Design Review Board. A repaint that would be a weekend job elsewhere is a design submission here, so the colour decision belongs at the start of the project rather than at the end of it.
Window replacement
Windows are named on the Town’s list, and they are also a product-approval question — the Town asks for two sets of Product Approvals and product specifications with the application. Both conversations run at once: what the opening will look like, and what the assembly is rated for.
Door and entry replacement
Doors are named separately from windows on the Town’s trigger list. On an entry elevation the door is usually the single most visible change a house makes, which is exactly why it is designated the way it is.
Driveways and hardscape
Driveways appear on the Town’s list alongside the building elements. Ground plane work reads from the street as strongly as a wall does, and it is treated accordingly here.
Fences, walls and boundary treatment
Fences are named. Boundary treatment on a small lot is what the neighbours see most of, and on these islands the lots are close enough that the boundary is a shared condition rather than a private one.
Awnings, canopies and shade structures
Awnings are on the Town’s list. Anything that projects from the elevation or stands in the garden changes the outline of the property, and the outline is the thing design review is looking at.
Additions
Additions head the Town’s own list. An addition is design review, zoning compliance and structural engineering resolved as one package rather than in sequence, and we deliver it under a single licensed contract.
Interior renovation
A kitchen, a bathroom or a full interior reconfiguration that changes nothing outside is a building permit rather than a design submission — but it still carries the Town’s full documentary requirements, and in a condominium it still needs the association’s letter of authorization.
Condominium unit renovation
The Town asks for a letter of authorization from the Condominium or Management Association as part of the application. That is a separate approval from the Town’s, and on these islands it is often the one with the longer lead time.
Roof replacement and repair
Roofing is construction work requiring a permit, with product approvals, and where the covering is visible it becomes an exterior question as well. The Town publishes a roofing permit form on its own document shelf.
Multi-trade renovation
Where a project runs several disciplines, the Town requires the sub-contractors’ applications, with their licences and insurance, to be submitted with the master application. Assembling that set is part of the job, and it is a common reason an otherwise complete submission stalls.
Whole-home renovation
A whole-home project almost always touches both: the interior scope on the building permit, and the elevations, openings, paint and ground plane through design review. Run separately they collide. Run together they simply take an agreed order.
What an exterior structure looks like on the way to finished
Nine frames, separate South Florida projects
Freestanding and attached structures are exactly the kind of work a town reviews before it is built and looks at afterwards. These frames show the stages between those two moments.
These nine frames are separate South Florida projects by Elbaz Construction, not one project and not a Bay Harbor Islands property. Select any frame to open it full size.
Specification
Who has to say yes
Read from the Town’s own Building & Zoning pages and its Permit Application General Information sheet on 2026-08-16. The Town names the reviewing authority for exterior modifications and the documents an application carries; it does not publish the standards the Design Review Board applies, so neither does this page.
- Town Planner and/or Design Review Board
- Review and approval for any exterior modification. The Town’s published list names additions, awnings, doors, driveways, fences, paint, signs and windows.
- Building & Zoning Department
- Issues the building permit and enforces the local and state codes governing construction and maintenance of buildings and structures in the Town.
- Development Review Committee
- The Town publishes DRC information and an application form on its document shelf. We have not read it, so this page does not describe what it reviews or when it applies — ask the Department.
- Condominium or Management Association
- A letter of authorization from the association is a required part of the application. It is the association’s decision, not the Town’s, and it is separate from both of the Town’s approvals.
- Miami-Dade County product control
- Product Approvals or Notices of Acceptance are supplied with the application in two sets, together with product specifications, for openings and other rated assemblies.
- Florida State Statutes
- A recorded Notice of Commencement is required with the application for all work exceeding $2,500 in job cost.
- Sub-contractors, individually
- Multi-disciplined work requires each sub-contractor’s application, licence and insurance to be submitted with the master plan and application.
- The Department, on anything else
- The Town states that its published list of required documents is not all-inclusive and that additional documents may be required on an individual review basis.
Design and material language
The decisions design review actually looks at
Five categories from the Town’s own published trigger list, and what changes when the choice is made early rather than late.
Paint and exterior finish
Named on the list
Named on the Town’s list Paint appears on the Town’s published list of exterior modifications requiring review and approval by the Town Planner and/or the Design Review Board. On many houses this is the only trigger the project has, and it converts a maintenance job into a design submission.
Other options. Choose the colour at the start, with the elevation drawn, rather than at the end from a fan deck on site. The decision is the submission.
Windows and glazed openings
Named on the list
Named on the Town’s list Windows are on the trigger list and are also a product question: the Town asks for two sets of Product Approvals or Notices of Acceptance and product specifications with the application, and Miami-Dade sits inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone.
Other options. A product that satisfies the rating and changes the proportion of the opening is two decisions, not one. Settle both before ordering, because lead times on glazing do not forgive a redesign.
Doors and entries
Named on the list
Named on the Town’s list Doors are listed separately from windows. An entry is usually the most-looked-at square metre of a house, and the Town treats it as its own category rather than as part of a general elevation.
Other options. Where a door and its surround are changing together, draw them together. Approving a leaf and then altering the frame is the expensive order to do it in.
Driveways and paving
Named on the list
Named on the Town’s list Driveways are on the list alongside the building elements. Ground plane work is also the part of a project most likely to involve deliveries, plant and material stacking on a narrow island street.
Other options. Agree the material and the layout at design stage, and the delivery and working sequence at the same time — the Town’s construction-hours rules apply to the noisy part of the job most of all.
Fences and boundary treatment
Named on the list
Named on the Town’s list Fences are on the list. On lots this size the boundary is a shared condition: what you build on your line is what your neighbour looks at from theirs.
Other options. Height, material and transparency are design decisions with a neighbourly dimension. They are much easier to settle on a drawing than after installation.
On what is shown. Nothing here is a determination. The Town decides whether a scope is an exterior modification and what its review requires, and it does not publish the standards the Design Review Board applies — so this page describes the decisions, not their outcomes.
Process
How we run a project here
Eleven steps. The order is set by the Town’s own sequence: the exterior test first, then the approvals, then the permit, then the work — inside permitted hours.
What you want to change, and how much of it is visible from outside.
We establish with the Department whether the scope is an exterior modification, because that decides whether design review comes first.
If the property is in a condominium, we start the letter of authorization early — it is required with the application and it is not in the Town’s gift.
Elevations, openings, finishes and colour resolved as a design proposition rather than as a schedule of works.
Submission to the Town Planner and/or Design Review Board, with the drawings that show what will actually be seen.
Application with both signatures notarised, licences, insurance issued to the Town, product approvals and specifications, floor plan — in two sets.
Recorded and submitted with the application for work exceeding $2,500 in job cost.
Application through the Town’s online portal, with sub-contractors’ applications travelling with the master where the work is multi-disciplined.
A working plan built around permitted construction hours, with deliveries and the noisiest operations scheduled inside them.
Sequenced so each trade is genuinely ready for its inspection, requested through the Town’s portal.
Final inspections, certification, and the documents handed over in a form you can produce again when the property is sold.
Technical brief
What the Town publishes, and what it says exactly
Twelve references, each read off an official Town source on 2026-08-16. Where the Town’s own pages disagree, both versions are here.
The exterior modification trigger
The Town’s instruction to applicants: for any exterior modification, the Town requires review and approval by the Town Planner and/or the Design Review Board. The list published with it names additions, awnings, doors, driveways, fences, paint, signs and windows.
Permissible construction hours
Under Town Code Section 12-26, construction hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., excluding holidays. The Town states that no contractor work is permitted on Town recognised holidays, Saturdays or Sundays.
The penalty ladder
Published in full by the Town: a first violation $1,000; a second $2,000 plus one workday of Stop Work Order; a third $3,000 plus three workdays of Stop Work Order; and each subsequent violation $5,000 plus five workdays of Stop Work Order.
Both signatures, notarised
The application is submitted completed, with the owner’s signature as well as the qualifier’s signature notarised.
Contractor licensing
The contractor’s appropriate licences: a local business tax receipt from the county or municipality in which the contractor’s office is located, and municipal and/or state licensing.
Insurance issued to the Town
A certificate of insurance issued to the Town of Bay Harbor Islands indicating Liability and Workers’ Compensation coverage. Where the qualifier is exempt from Workers’ Compensation, a copy of the exemption must be presented.
The association’s letter
A letter of authorization from the Condominium or Management Association forms part of the required submittal.
Two sets of everything
Two sets of: plans which meet Florida Building Code specifications, Product Approvals (NOA), product specifications, and the floor plan.
Sub-contractors with the master
Multi-disciplined work requires submission of the sub-contractors’ applications, with proper licence and insurance, with the master plan and application.
Notice of Commencement above $2,500
All work exceeding $2,500.00 in job cost must submit a recorded Notice of Commencement with the application, as per Florida State Statutes.
The contract itself
A copy of the contract, proposal, estimate or paid invoice/receipt is part of the required information.
Where the Town’s own pages disagree
Two conflicts, both current on the Town’s site and neither resolved here. On the code edition: the Town’s apply page states that it operates under Florida Building Code 2017, while the Building Department’s document shelf publishes a Special Inspector form for the FBC 8th edition (2023). On hours and address: the Department page gives 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at 1045 95th Street, Trailer 3, while the Permit Application General Information sheet gives 8am to Noon and 1pm to 3:30pm at 9665 Bay Harbor Terrace. Confirm both with the Department before you rely on either.
Disclaimer. Nothing on this sheet is a determination about a specific property. The Town decides what a scope requires, and its own published list of documents states that it is not all-inclusive.
Assembly
The route an application takes, drawn.
An indicative diagram of the Town’s published structure, not a determination. Whether a scope is an exterior modification decides whether design review comes first; the building permit follows either way; and a condominium adds the association’s letter before the Town sees the application at all.

Visibility before size
The test the Town publishes is whether the work is an exterior modification, not whether it is large. Paint is on the list and a full interior refit is not, which is the opposite of the intuition most owners arrive with.
The association is not the Town
A letter of authorization from the Condominium or Management Association is a required part of the application. The Town asking for it does not make the Town responsible for obtaining it, and association timelines are their own.
Two sets, not one
Plans, Product Approvals, product specifications and the floor plan are all submitted in two sets. It is a small thing that turns a counter visit into a second counter visit.
Both signatures, notarised
The Town asks for the completed application with the owner’s signature and the qualifier’s signature notarised. Booking the notary once, for both, is the sensible version.
Sub-contractors travel with the master
Multi-disciplined work requires each sub-contractor’s application, licence and insurance with the master plan and application, rather than following it later.
The list is not the whole list
The Town states plainly that its required-documents list is not all-inclusive and that more may be required on an individual review basis. Treat it as the reliable core and the Department as the authority on the rest.
The two categories a passer-by actually sees
Driveways and boundary treatment are both named on the Town’s exterior modification list. South Florida projects by Elbaz Construction; neither property is in Bay Harbor Islands.
Performance and quality
How we work
Eight commitments, each one a direct consequence of something this Town publishes.
- The exterior test comes first
- We establish with the Department whether the scope is an exterior modification before design work is commissioned, because that answer sets the whole sequence.
- Colour is a design decision, not a finishing one
- Where paint is in scope it is drawn and submitted, not chosen on site at the end.
- The association letter is started early
- It is required with the application, the association sets its own pace, and it is the single most common reason a submission waits.
- We work inside permitted hours
- Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., no weekends and no Town holidays. The penalty ladder is published and it attaches stop-work days to money.
- Deliveries are scheduled, not assumed
- On two small islands the noisy end of a project is the visible end. Deliveries and breaking-out are planned inside the permitted window.
- Two sets, assembled before we file
- Plans, product approvals, specifications and floor plan, in the two sets the Town asks for, with both signatures notarised in one sitting.
- Sub-contractors documented with the master
- Their applications, licences and insurance travel with the master application rather than following it.
- One licensed contract
- Design coordination, Town submittals, permitting and construction under CBC1265280, so no approval falls between two parties.
Cost and timeline
What moves the number
We publish no permit fees for this Town — the fee schedule is set by Town resolution and we have not opened it, and the figure that matters is current on the day you file. These are the variables that actually move a price.
| # | Variable | Why it moves the number |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | Whether it is an exterior modification | Design review adds drawings, a submission and a decision point before construction can be permitted. It is the largest single fork in the programme. |
| 02 | How much of the elevation changes | A single opening and a whole frontage are the same category and very different projects. |
| 03 | Condominium or single-family | A condominium adds the association’s authorization, its own rules on hours, access and protection, and usually a longer lead time before anything starts. |
| 04 | Access on a small island | Where material can be stood, how it is delivered and how far it is carried is a real cost on constrained lots with close neighbours. |
| 05 | Permitted-hours working only | A programme confined to weekdays between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. is longer in elapsed time than one that can use a Saturday, and that is a scheduling cost rather than an hourly one. |
| 06 | Number of disciplines | Each additional trade brings its own application, licence and insurance to be submitted with the master, and its own inspections. |
| 07 | Product approvals and ratings | Rated assemblies for openings carry their own documentation and their own lead times, and substitution late in a job is rarely cheap. |
| 08 | Structural intervention | Removing or altering structure brings engineering, and engineering brings its own review and inspection sequence. |
| 09 | Existing conditions | What is behind the finishes on an older building is the largest genuine unknown on most renovation projects anywhere. |
| 10 | Survey and existing documentation | Having a current survey and any previous Town approvals for the property shortens the front of the job appreciably. |
| 11 | Specification level | Finishes, joinery and fittings move a renovation budget more than square footage does, once the shell is settled. |
| 12 | Notice of Commencement threshold | Above $2,500 in job cost a recorded Notice of Commencement is part of the submission — a small administrative step, and one that has to happen before the application rather than during it. |
| 13 | How early the decisions are made | The cheapest version of this project is the one where colour, openings and boundary treatment were settled before the first submission rather than after the first comment. |
Question index
Questions we are asked here
Answered from the Town’s own published material. Where the Town publishes two different answers, both are given.
Do I really need approval to repaint my house?
On the Town’s own published instruction, yes — paint is named on the list of exterior modifications for which the Town requires review and approval by the Town Planner and/or the Design Review Board. The full list published with it is additions, awnings, doors, driveways, fences, paint, signs and windows. Whether your particular scope is an exterior modification is the Town’s determination, and it is the first thing we confirm with the Building & Zoning Department.
What does the Design Review Board actually apply?
We do not know, and we will not guess. The Town names the requirement and names the triggers; it does not publish the standards the Board applies, how often it meets or how long a review takes, on the pages we read. Treat any contractor’s website that states those confidently with caution, and ask the Department directly — that is what we do at the start of a project.
What is the Development Review Committee?
The Town publishes DRC information and an application form on its Building Department document shelf. We have not opened it, so this page does not describe what it reviews, when it applies or what it requires. It is named here because knowing it exists is useful; anything beyond that is a question for the Department.
When can work actually happen?
Under Town Code Section 12-26, construction hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., excluding holidays — and the Town states that no contractor work is permitted on Town recognised holidays, Saturdays or Sundays. On a project of any size that shapes the elapsed programme, and it is the reason we plan deliveries and the noisiest operations inside the window rather than around it.
What happens if a crew works outside those hours?
The Town publishes the consequence as a ladder: a first violation $1,000; a second $2,000 plus one workday of Stop Work Order; a third $3,000 plus three workdays of Stop Work Order; and each subsequent violation $5,000 plus five workdays of Stop Work Order. Note what escalates alongside the money — lost working days, which cost more than the fine on most programmes.
What does a complete application carry?
The Town publishes the list: a completed application with both the owner’s and the qualifier’s signatures notarised; the contractor’s licences, including a local business tax receipt from where the contractor’s office is located; a certificate of insurance issued to the Town showing Liability and Workers’ Compensation, or the exemption; a letter of authorization from the Condominium or Management Association; two sets of plans, Product Approvals, product specifications and the floor plan; sub-contractors’ applications with the master where the work is multi-disciplined; a recorded Notice of Commencement above $2,500 in job cost; and a copy of the contract, proposal, estimate or paid invoice.
Is that list everything?
No, and the Town says so itself: the published list includes the documents typically required, but it is not all-inclusive and additional documents may be required on an individual review basis. Treat it as the reliable core of the submission and the Department as the authority on the rest.
Why does the Town want a copy of my contract?
It is on the Town’s list — a copy of the contract, proposal, estimate or paid invoice or receipt forms part of the required information. In practice it means the scope and the price need to be settled before the application rather than alongside it, which is a reasonable way to run a project in any case.
We are in a condominium. What changes?
One thing formally and several practically. Formally, a letter of authorization from the Condominium or Management Association is a required part of the application. Practically, the association will have its own rules on working hours, access, lift use and protection of common areas, and its own timetable for deciding. We ask for the association’s requirements at the start, because they usually shape the programme as much as the Town’s do.
Which building code applies here?
This is one of two places where the Town’s own pages disagree, and we are not going to choose for you. Its apply page states that the Town operates under Florida Building Code 2017; its Building Department document shelf publishes a Special Inspector form for the FBC 8th edition (2023). Both are current on the Town’s site. Confirm with the Department which edition your drawings must demonstrate compliance with before you commission them — the answer changes the drawings, not just the paperwork.
What are the office hours, and where is the Department?
The Town publishes two answers here as well. Its Building Department page gives Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at 1045 95th Street, Trailer 3. Its Permit Application General Information sheet gives 8am to Noon and 1pm to 3:30pm, at 9665 Bay Harbor Terrace. A midday closure is exactly the kind of thing that wastes a trip, so call before going.
How is everything submitted?
Through the Town’s online portal, which it uses for all construction-related permits. The Town describes it as letting you apply for a permit, make payments by credit card, upload documents, request inspections, review inspection results and access all your permits.
Do I need a permit for a small job?
Probably. The Town states that a building permit is required for most types of construction work within the Town, and directs anyone unsure to contact the Building Department to determine whether a particular project requires one. Combined with the exterior modification trigger, very little of a real renovation sits outside one requirement or the other.
Can you handle the design review and the build?
Yes — that is how we prefer to work here. Design coordination, the Town submittals, permitting and construction under one licensed general contract, CBC1265280, so that the design approval and the building work are not two parties blaming each other for a delay. What we do not do is tell you what the Board will decide.
Have you built in Bay Harbor Islands?
The photographs on this page are South Florida projects by Elbaz Construction and none of them is claimed as a Bay Harbor Islands property — we label our work honestly rather than implying a local address. What we bring is a licensed general contractor who works across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, and who reads a town’s published requirements before designing to them.
What to establish first
Four questions worth answering before a drawing is commissioned. All four are answered by the Town or by your association, not by a contractor.
Observations
- 01
- Is any part of it visible from outside
This is the branch that decides everything else. If the scope modifies the exterior, the Town requires review and approval by the Town Planner and/or the Design Review Board — and its published trigger list is broad enough that most projects touch it somewhere. - 02
- Whether the property is in an association
A letter of authorization from the Condominium or Management Association is required with the application. Their process is not the Town’s, and it is usually the longer of the two. - 03
- Which code edition your drawings must meet
The Town publishes two different answers on two of its own pages. Ask the Department which applies before drawings are commissioned rather than after they are submitted. - 04
- What the job value is
Above $2,500 in job cost the application needs a recorded Notice of Commencement. It is a small step with a fixed lead time, and it belongs at the front of the programme.
Credentials and delivery
Why Elbaz Construction
Six things that are verifiable rather than asserted.
Licensed general contractor
CBC1265280 — certified building contractor, bonded and insured. Verifiable in the Florida DBPR licence register.
One contract, both approvals
Design coordination and Town submittals run alongside the construction contract, so the design approval and the building permit are one party’s responsibility.
We read the Town’s own material
Every regulatory statement on this page was taken from an official Town source and is attributed to it, including the two places where the Town contradicts itself.
We say what we do not know
The Design Review Board’s standards, the DRC’s remit and the fee schedule are not on this page, because we have not read them. That is a better guide than a confident guess.
Honest photography
Every image here is a real Elbaz Construction project in South Florida, captioned as such. None is claimed as a Bay Harbor Islands property.
Across three counties
Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach — so a small town’s particular review architecture is a normal part of the work rather than an exception to it.

Tell us the scope and the address. We will establish whether it is an exterior modification, what the application has to carry, and how the permitted-hours rule shapes the programme.
What happens next
- 01
- We call or email within one business day, Sunday to Friday.
- 02
- An exterior test: whether the scope modifies the exterior, whether the property is in an association, and which code edition the Department says applies.
- 03
