Both cities are inland from the coast so do not face exposure D, simplifying wind load calculations to risk category II at 175 mph for residential and 195 mph for essential facilities like hospitals and emergency operations centers. Government brochures occasionally cite 170 mph — corrected ASCE 7-22 value is 175 mph.

Government summary sheets sometimes omit the SFWMD ERP requirement for projects between 1 and 10 acres — the corrected Florida Administrative Code 62-330 requires ERP for any disturbance over 1 acre.
