PERMIT FEES

Permit fees are $100 and Significant events are required to submit an additional $300 bond.

If you are renting the St Johns County Pier Pavilion and/or Promenade you do not have to pay the application fee, only the bond. You can contact Danielle Fountain at St. Johns County Beach Services regarding rentals at 904-209-0752 or dfountain [at] sjcfl.us.
