Elevators in Temple Terrace buildings are regulated by the Florida Bureau of Elevator Safety under FL §399, requiring annual inspections and certificates of operation.
FL §399 and Florida Administrative Code 61C-5 place elevator safety under the Bureau of Elevator Safety within DBPR. All elevators, escalators, and dumbwaiters (other than exempt private-residence lifts) must be installed and altered only by licensed elevator contractors, inspected annually by a certified elevator inspector, and display a current certificate of operation. Annual state fees apply. Residential private elevators in single-family homes are exempt from state inspection but must still meet FL Building Code installation standards. Condo and multifamily elevators in Temple Terrace fall under full DBPR jurisdiction.
Operating without a current certificate: up to 5,000 dollars per violation under FL §399.13 plus out-of-service order. Unlicensed work is a first-degree misdemeanor.
