Joint Building Committee (JBC)

JBC meets regularly with the building officials from counties and municipalities in the Greater Orlando region. Our goal is to create and maintain a constructive dialogue to promote the timely exchange of information related to plans review, permitting and inspection processes. Field and construction supervisors of builder members are encouraged to participate.
