County permit search
Brevard permit search: using BASS, no registration required
Official portal: Brevard BASS.
Updated
Brevard County permit records are in BASS, the county's Advanced Service Site on Accela. You can search and view building, development and enforcement records there without registering. Melbourne, Palm Bay, Titusville, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach and Brevard's other cities issue permits inside their own limits, so a city address means the city's search.
How to search Brevard County building permits
BASS, Brevard County's Accela portal, lets anyone search building records without registering.
Open BASS and go to Building, then Search Applications.
Enter the record number, the property address or a license. Viewing doesn't need registration.
Want to schedule inspections? Register. It's free, and you don't need a contractor license to do it.
Melbourne or Palm Bay address? That's the city's search. The county only holds unincorporated Brevard.

Brevard's county desk covers the unincorporated stretches: Viera and Suntree, Merritt Island, and the barrier island south of Melbourne Beach. Among the city offices, Palm Bay and Melbourne are the busiest in our record.
