Information about the government in Lafayette County Florida and the services they provide
New Website for Lafayette County Florida https://lafayettecountyfl.org/
Links to websites to get more information about taxes, licenses, emergency management, property searches, and the courts. Most, if not all, of these services, are located in the county seat of Mayo, Florida. If you see that we have forgotten something give us a shout using the CONTACT US form and we will get it posted right away. This informational website will only be as good as the people who share their knowledge with the rest of us! Just because the county is small in comparison to other counties in Florida doesn’t mean that the information you need to know cannot be all in one place and presented professionally.

They issue Building and Zoning Permits for residents and businesses. You have to check in with them if you want to start a business to ensure the property you want to use is zoned for the business you want to start. They also rent out the 4 County Community Centers. If you are rented or leasing property anywhere in the county the owners should tell you the type of commercial zoning has already been approved. If you need a variance you must start with this department and then get it approved by the Board of County Commissioners. They meet twice a month on Mondays across from the Zoning Office on the second floor. A Business License, Occupational License, or Business Tax Certificate is issued at Town Hall.
