Original Building Plans (Microfilm)
To view or obtain copies of the original building plans of my home or commercial property, you must schedule an appointment to view or obtain copies of your plans. Appointments are scheduled Monday through Friday during the hours from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Appointments can also be scheduled online.
All records in the Microfilm Unit are filed by the Permit Number. In most cases, the permit number can be located by the address or the folio number of the property. If we are unable to locate a permit number for your property, we cannot complete the research.
The Microfilm Unit will perform an initial research over the phone (786-315-2340) to determine if your property is located in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, and to verify the year the property was built in order to determine if we may have records to research on file.
The Microfilm Unit is located at the
Miami-Dade County Herbert S. Saffir Permitting and Inspection Center,
11805 SW 26 Street (Coral Way), Room 201
The hours of operation are from 7:30 a.m. - 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays.
