Permitting
The Facilities Planning Department serves as the College's Building Department and issues building construction permits and performs its own inspections. Other permits (St. Johns River Water Management District, Florida Fire Codes and when necessary Health Department Permits) are handled by other agencies.

While the Facilities Planning and Construction Departments at some educational entities also handle Security, Transportation, Custodial or Maintenance and repairs, these services at Daytona State College are the responsibility of other departments.

The Facilities Planning site is maintained by Bret Nielsen.
