Grants and insurance

My Safe Florida Home and your wind-mitigation form

If you qualify for My Safe Florida Home, the state pays $2 for every $1 you pay, up to $10,000, after the program's free wind-mitigation visit (Fla. Stat. §215.5586). How the program works.

Impact windows and doors count as opening protection, Question 9 on the state's wind-mitigation form, OIR-B1-1802. A licensed inspector fills it out after the work, and your insurer sets the discount.

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)

Exposure, associations, and the notice.

Wind contour170 mph, Exposure D

  • The whole town sits in the 170 mph contour on the county map.

  • Its guidelines call for Exposure D loads, the open-water category.

Condos and HOAsIsland condos and HOAs

  • A condo board on the island can pick a storm-protection look, then must approve owners who match it.

  • Palm Beach also wants the HOA's signed letter in the permit file.

  • Adopted building standards can waive extra design review.

Sources: Florida Statutes §718.113 · Florida Statutes §720.3035

PaperworkNotice of commencement

  • Palm Beach jobs past $5,000 need a recorded notice of commencement.

  • We record it with the Clerk once the contract is signed.

Sources: Florida Statutes §713.13 (notice of commencement) · Florida Statutes §713.135

Sea turtle codeChapter 74 nesting rules

  • The town has its own sea turtle code, Chapter 74, Article II, Division 4, mostly about shielding lights in nesting season.

  • We ask the building office what an ocean-facing opening needs and quote 45% turtle glass where the beach can see it.
