Miami-Dade RV Park, Manufactured Home and Mobile Home Park Permits in 2026





Introduction to RV and Mobile Home Park Permits in Miami-Dade County

RV park, manufactured home park, and mobile home park construction permits in Miami-Dade County govern the construction, expansion, and renovation of recreational vehicle parks, manufactured home communities, mobile home parks, and tiny home communities. Park construction in Miami-Dade County intersects multiple regulatory frameworks: Florida Statutes Chapter 513 governing recreational vehicle parks, Florida Statutes Chapter 723 governing mobile home parks, Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation Bureau of Manufactured Housing licensure, the Florida Department of Health for water and sewer infrastructure, the Florida Building Code 8th Edition (2023), and local municipal Land Development Regulations for park siting and design.





Florida DBPR Bureau of Manufactured Housing

The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation Bureau of Manufactured Housing administers regulatory programs covering manufactured home installation, mobile home park licensure, recreational vehicle park licensure, and related programs. Park licensure requires the physical park to meet specific dimensional and operational requirements including minimum lot dimensions per home or RV site, utility provisions including water and electrical service to each site, common area facilities, road infrastructure within the park, and management standards. Pre-construction coordination with the Bureau identifies the licensure category and physical facility requirements applicable to the proposed park.





Site Layout, Setbacks, and Density Requirements

Park site layout addresses the configuration of individual home or RV sites within the park, internal roadway design, common area facilities, and perimeter setbacks from the property boundary. Minimum site dimensions specified by Florida Administrative Code rules implementing Chapter 513 and Chapter 723 typically range from approximately 2,500 square feet to 4,000 square feet per site, depending on the park category and intended occupancy. Density requirements address the maximum number of sites per acre. Local zoning code may impose more restrictive density requirements than the state minimum standards. Perimeter setbacks address the separation between park boundaries and adjacent residential or commercial properties.





Utility Infrastructure: Water, Sewer, and Electrical Service

Park utility infrastructure must provide water and sanitary sewer service to each home or RV site with appropriate capacity for the intended occupancy. Water service connections from the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department system or an approved private well system provide potable water to the park, with internal distribution piping providing service to each individual site. Sanitary sewer service through the Miami-Dade WASD system or an approved private wastewater treatment system provides sewage disposal. Electrical service through Florida Power and Light provides power to common areas and each individual site, with site service typically including 50-amp service for RV connections or 100-amp service for manufactured homes.





Mobile Home and Manufactured Home Tie-Down Systems

Manufactured homes installed in Miami-Dade County mobile home parks must comply with federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards under 24 CFR Part 3280, with installation in the Florida Wind Zone III (the highest hurricane wind classification) requiring corresponding tie-down anchoring. Tie-down systems include vertical and diagonal ties connecting the home to ground anchors driven into the soil to specified depth, with anchor count and placement calibrated to the home size and wind exposure. Tie-down inspection at installation is required by Florida DBPR rules, with subsequent re-inspection following hurricane events to verify ongoing compliance.





Hurricane Evacuation Planning and Storm Shelter

Manufactured home parks and RV parks in Miami-Dade County face specific hurricane evacuation requirements given the inherent vulnerability of light-frame construction to hurricane wind loading. Mandatory evacuation orders typically apply to manufactured home park residents at lower hurricane intensity levels than to conventional construction. Park management may provide on-site storm shelter facilities for residents who cannot or will not evacuate, with shelter construction following enhanced wind loading and life safety requirements. Evacuation planning documentation, resident notification procedures, and coordination with Miami-Dade County Emergency Management address the operational hurricane preparedness.





Recreational Vehicle Park Specific Provisions

Recreational vehicle parks operate under Florida Statutes Chapter 513 with specific provisions addressing the transient and recreational use of the park by visiting RV operators. RV park site design includes appropriate site dimensions for RV sizes (Class A motorhomes up to 45 feet, fifth-wheel trailers, travel trailers, and smaller units), utility connections including electrical (typically 30-amp and 50-amp options), water service, sanitary sewer or dump station access, and waste management. RV park common facilities typically include restrooms and showers, laundry facilities, recreation areas, swimming pool where applicable, and management office.





Tiny Home and Park Model RV Communities

Tiny home and park model RV communities represent emerging housing categories in Miami-Dade County. Tiny homes are typically classified either as recreational vehicles when built on chassis and certified to RV industry standards, as manufactured homes when built to HUD-code standards, or as accessory dwelling units when site-built. Park model RVs are factory-built recreational vehicles intended for long-term placement rather than touring, typically 400 square feet or less under federal RV Industry Association standards. Each tiny home category carries different building code, installation, and zoning compliance requirements. Tiny home community development is subject to local zoning permission for the intended use.





Common Area Construction and Amenity Facilities

Park common area facilities including swimming pools, recreation buildings, laundry facilities, management offices, and outdoor recreation areas require their own building permits and code compliance verification. Swimming pool construction at parks follows Florida Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act provisions or DBPR Division of Hotels and Restaurants public pool requirements depending on the park category. Recreation building construction follows commercial building code requirements with attention to occupancy classification, life safety, accessibility, and HVHZ compliance. Common area accessibility under the Florida Accessibility Code requires accessible routes and amenity access for residents and visitors with disabilities.





Required Submittal Documents and Inspections

A complete RV park, manufactured home park, or mobile home park permit submittal in Miami-Dade County typically includes the application form, contractor authorization and licensure documentation, Notice of Commencement, signed and sealed civil engineering plans for site infrastructure, signed and sealed architectural plans for common area facilities, water and sewer infrastructure design, electrical infrastructure design, road and pavement design, drainage and stormwater management design, Florida DBPR Bureau of Manufactured Housing pre-licensure documentation, Florida Department of Health water and sewer approval, accessibility compliance documentation, and Notice of Acceptance documentation for HVHZ-affected common area construction. Inspections proceed through the full construction sequence with site infrastructure, utilities, and common facility inspections plus state pre-licensure inspection at completion.
