New development and substantial redevelopment in Brandon must comply with Hillsborough County LDC §3.06.00 (Stormwater Management) and the Construction Code, which require on-site treatment and attenuation of stormwater runoff.
Single-family residential lots under 1 acre typically rely on subdivision-level stormwater systems. Filling wetlands or buffer zones requires Environmental Resource Permits (ERP) from the Southwest Florida Water Management District plus a County Wetland Setback Encroachment Permit.
Stop-work orders, restoration requirements, and civil penalties; SWFWMD penalties can reach tens of thousands of dollars for unpermitted filling.
