Check ownership and value with the Jackson County Property Appraiser, taxes owed with the Tax Collector, and deeds, liens and easements in the Clerk of Court's Official Records. For a new home, the Planning Division issues a Residential Development Order first, and Building Services then issues the construction permit; both sit in the Community Development office at 4979 Healthy Way in Marianna. Septic permits here are handled by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, which took over onsite sewage permitting for 16 Panhandle counties on July 1, 2021, and the Northwest Florida Water Management District permits all wells in the county. Land in good-faith commercial farm use can be classified agricultural if the owner files with the Property Appraiser by March 1; Florida sets no minimum acreage (Section 193.461, Florida Statutes).
