Community Development

The Community Development Department provides services related to Business Tax Receipts, Code Enforcement, Building Permitting and Planning & Zoning. Services are provided on a hybrid basis with both City of Fellsmere staff and consultants fulfilling the aforementioned functions. This mixed-model has been implemented in response to the unique market pressures present in Florida that demands a high level of responsiveness and elasticity. Additionally the structure of the Department allocates the cost to end users to minimize subsidies from the general fund.

The City of Fellsmere is focused on being a hospitable environment for both businesses and residents. This is the policy of City Council and the charge of staff. The City seeks to facilitate opportunity and this philosophy is reflected throughout the functions of this and every department.
