North Bay Village, FL · Miami-Dade County
Change of Contractor
A permit transfer form allowing property owners to cancel an existing construction permit and authorize a new contractor or proceed as owner-builder.
What this form is
This form allows a property owner to cancel an active construction permit held by one contractor and transfer it to a new contractor or themselves as owner-builder. The document establishes that the original permit holder is no longer authorized to work on the project and that the owner assumes responsibility for any corrections needed on prior work. The form includes indemnification language protecting the municipality from liability disputes.
Who needs it
Property owners who need to switch contractors mid-project or take over construction work as owner-builders themselves.
Why it needs a notary
All signatures—owner, releasing contractor, and incoming permit holder—must be notarized to authenticate the permit holder change and the owner's release of the previous contractor.
