How a permit moves through Village of Miami Shores
Where the application starts
More than one wayThe Village’s own answer to “How do I apply for a permit?” — “Applicants are required to set up an online account with EnerGov CSS and apply directly through the portal.” The same answer adds that the office is also open to receive permit submittals Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., so the counter remains an accepted route.

Where plans and documents go
Online portalDocuments are uploaded against the permit in CSS. The Village’s solar checklist states it directly — “Upload into Master Permit: Completed Permit Application; Original Signed & Sealed Architectural Plans; Property Owner Solar System Disclosure Form” — and notes that sub-permits are applied for separately.
