Plumbing in North Port
North Port Utilities' 2024 Consumer Confidence Report says the water comes from conventional surface water treatment of Myakkahatchee Creek and the Cocoplum Waterway, and from reverse osmosis treatment of water from intermediate aquifer wells. The city also buys water. A second page says it buys treated surface water from the Peace River Manasota Regional Water Supply Authority, from its Peace River plant in DeSoto County. The utilities phone is 941-240-8000, and North Port Utilities appears in EPA's list as PWSID FL6580651.
The Plans Review page says that as of December 31, 2023 all building applications are subject to the 8th Edition (2023) Florida Building Code, with its own plumbing volume, and the 2020 National Electrical Code. Trade fees are another matter. Trade rows don't appear on the Permit Fees page, and the Building Division fee schedule sits in Appendix A, Section D of the city code. Development Services, Building and Permitting, is at 4970 City Hall Boulevard, (941) 429-7044, open weekdays 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Accela handles filing. Census figures put the median year built at 2005, and 80.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (ACS 2020 to 2024). Building and permitting questions, including the plumbing amount for a job, go to bldginfo@northportfl.gov.
