  • Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse

    First lit 1860

    The lighthouse was first lit in 1860 and is still an active aid to navigation.

    For your windows: Homes near the inlet sit in open-water exposure, which raises design pressure.

  • Outstanding Natural Area

    Federal land

    The Bureau of Land Management manages the lighthouse grounds as the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area.

    For your windows: Nearby river-front lots face long open fetches across the water.

    34 voters

The fine print

The rules

Wind and missile rules

Palm Beach County is outside the HVHZ. Its Risk Category II wind map runs from 150 to 170 mph, above the 140 mph mark that puts glass in the wind-borne debris region.

  • Up to 30 feet: the large-missile test of ASTM E1996.
  • Above 30 feet: the small-missile test of the same standard.
  • Each unit needs a Florida Product Approval, or a Miami-Dade NOA, covering its size and design pressure.

Sources: Palm Beach County: Wind Speeds · FBC 2023 §1609 (protection of openings) · Florida Statutes §553.842 (product approval)

Size changes, associations, and recording.

Bigger openingsChanging a size needs a different permit

  • Moving an opening or changing its size needs an Alteration permit, not the replacement permit.

  • Even one window or door needs a permit in Jupiter.

Condos and HOAsRiver and golf communities

  • Jupiter condo boards can set hurricane-protection color and style and must approve units that comply.

  • HOAs may adopt standards but not refuse code-compliant impact protection.

  • We line up the association approval before the JCDS filing.
